摘要
The stability of polarization in ferroelectric BiFeO3 thin film stacked with a p-n junction of Cu2O/ZnO was studied in the Au/Cu2O/ZnO/BiFeO3/Pt heterostructure. It was observed that the downward ferroelectric polarization of BiFeO3 gradually relaxes once the external electric field is removed, which is driven by the depolarization effect induced by the reduction of compensating charges due to the charge redistribution within Cu2O/ZnO. This work contributes to an improved understanding on the polarization behavior in multilayer thin film structures comprising ferroelectrics and p-n junctions for guiding relevant device design and performance analysis.
