Hafnium oxide-based ferroelectric materials are promising candidates for next-generation nanoscale devices because of their ability to integrate into silicon electronics. However, the intrinsic high coercive field fluorite-structure oxide leads incompatible operating voltage and limited endurance performance. We discovered a complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS)-compatible rhombohedral Hf(Zr)1+xO2 material rich in hafnium-zirconium [Hf(Zr)]. X-ray diffraction combined with scanning...

To promote the practical application of ferroelectric devices, we present a systematical study on properties 10nm HZO capacitor at high temperature scenarios (300K-400K).
