Abstract:
A ferroelectric-gated graphene field-effect transistor was fabricated with a bottom-gate structure. A ferroelectric gate dielectric was formed using the spin-coating method. Two samples were made, one with a single coating and the other with a double coating. It was observed that the data retention times of the two samples were significantly different. When comparing the surface roughness, the surface of the thin film produced by the double coating was much flatter. Based on the observation of the surface morphology, an interfacial layer composed of air was deduced as the origin of both the depolarization and short retention time. That is, when fabricating the graphene-ferroelectric memory device, the importance of the interface treatment could be confirmed. Based on these results, it is expected that a much more reliable device can be realized through surface engineering via a graphene-ferroelectric device process.

Stratum Basale
Stratum basale, also known as the stratum germinativum, is the deepest layer of the epidermis. It is composed of a single layer of actively dividing cells called basal cells or basal keratinocytes. These cells constantly undergo cell division to replenish the upper layers of the epidermis. Additionally, melanocytes, which...
Long-Term Memory
Long-term memory can be categorized into two primary types: explicit and implicit memory. Explicit memory, also known as declarative memory, involves the conscious recollection of information that we deliberately try to remember, recall, and articulate. This type of memory encompasses specific facts, events, and...
