Abstract :
Following experimental verification and parameter extraction of fast program DRAM-mode and long retention Flash-mode in ferroelectric (FE)-charge hybrid memory, we present the design considerations on memory window, and program/erase/retention dynamics from geometry and material parameters. The achievable dual-mode design trade-offs are then implemented in array circuits.
