Ferroelectric Oxide Thin FilmsFerroelectric materials are able to maintain an electric polarization in the absence of externally applied electric fields. The trapped charge associated with this polarization produces a measurable electric field that can be used in non-volatile memory devices and other unique electronic applications. As with many other materials in the electronic device industry, ferroelectrics are often employed in thin film form and the issues of interest become optimization of growth and the resulting properties. |
