Journal ArticleDOI
Nanosize ferroelectric oxides – tracking down the superparaelectric limit
TL;DR: In this paper, the extrinsic effects can be used to stabilize ferroelectricity and to shrink the ultimate size of a random access memory (RAM) system, but the system performance is very sensitive to the fabrication and processing procedures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct hysteresis measurements of single nanosized ferroelectric capacitors contacted with an atomic force microscope
S. Tiedke,T. Schmitz,Klaus Prume,Andreas Roelofs,T. Schneller,U. Kall,Rainer Waser,C. S. Ganpule,Valanoor Nagarajan,Andrei Stanishevsky,R. Ramesh +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, direct hysteresis measurements on single submicron structure sizes were performed on epitaxial ferroelectric Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 thin films grown on SrTiO3 with La 0.5Sr0.5CoO3 (LSCO) electrodes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Compensation of the Parasitic Capacitance of a Scanning Force Microscope Cantilever Used for Measurements on Ferroelectric Capacitors of Submicron Size by Means of Finite Element Simulations
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a finite element model of a scanning force microscope cantilever to calculate its parasitic capacitance, which has to be subtracted from the measurement data dependent on geometrical parameters of the cantilevers and parameters defined by the measurement setup, e.g. the distance from the wafer in the lifted position.
Journal ArticleDOI
In-situ compensation of the parasitic capacitance for nanoscale hysteresis measurements
TL;DR: In this paper, a novel compensation method was proposed to increase the signal to noise ratio by active cancellation of the parasitic capacitance of the setup during the measurement, which was demonstrated on single ferroelectric PbZr x Ti 1− x O 3 (PZT) submicron capacitors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Integration of ferroelectric lead titanate nanoislands for direct hysteresis measurements
S. Clemens,T. Schneller,Rainer Waser,A. Rüdiger,F. Peter,Stephan Kronholz,T. Schmitz,S. Tiedke +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the integration of fully functional ferroelectric PbTiO3 nanostructures of typically less than 100nm lateral extension into a low-k dielectric hydrogen silsesquioxane film is reported.
