摘要
In this article, we have designed an optimized ferroelectric tunnel junction (FTJ) device structure that inserts 3-nm Al2O3 between Hf0.5Zr0.5O2 (HZO) films. The Al2O3 interlayer can block the longitudinal growth of HZO grains and increase the number of ferroelectric domains. Therefore, the FTJ devices with Al2O3 interlayer demonstrate amazing multilevel states (256) and ultralow computational power consumption (76.1 pW/bit). In addition, the proposed FTJ device shows high linearity (alpha(p) = - 1.262), wide modulation capability, and good reproducibility. The results indicate that the device has high potential in energy-efficient brain-like computing application.
