摘要
Recently, various efforts have been made to implement synaptic characteristics with a ferroelectric field-effect transistor (FeFET), but in-depth physical analyses have not been reported thus far. Here, we investigated the effects by (i) the formation temperature of the ferroelectric material, poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene) P(VDF-TrFE) and (ii) the nature of the contactmetals (Ti, Cr, Pd) of the FeFET on the operating performance of a FeFET-based artificial synapse in terms of various synaptic performance indices. Excellent ferroelectric properties were induced by maximizing the size and coverage ratio of the b-phase domains by annealing the P(VDF-TrFE) film at 140 degrees C. A metal that forms a relatively high barrier improved the dynamic range and nonlinearity by suppressing the contribution of the tunneling current to the post-synaptic current. Subsequently, we studied the influence of the synaptic characteristics on the training and recognition tasks by using two MNIST datasets (fashion and handwritten digits) and the multi-layer perceptron concept of neural networks.
