We present an in-house modelling framework for Ferroelectric Tunnelling Junctions (FTJ), and an insightful study of the design of FTJs as synaptic devices. Results show that a moderately low-k tunnelling dielectric (e.g. SiO2) can increase the read current and the current dynamic range.
The technological exploitation of ferroelectricity in CMOS electron devices offers new design opportunities, but also significant challenges from an integration, optimization and modelling perspective. We here revisit the working principle and the modelling of some novel ferroelectric based devices, with an emphasis on energy efficiency and on applications to new computational paradigms.
