Abstract :
The structure and operation of ferroelectric thin-film memory capacitors for use in nonvolatile random-access memory applications are described. The search for the ideal ferroelectric material for ferro-electronic memory applications is examined. Possible military and nonmilitary applications of these memories are noted.<>
