New Materials for Three Dimensional Ferroelectric Microelectronics
Tuesday, November 22, 2021; 10:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m. Eastern US time
The ACerS Energy Materials and Systems Division is hosting the New Materials for Three Dimensional Ferroelectric Microelectronics webinar presented by Dr. Susan Trolier-McKinstry (The Pennsylvania State University). In the last decade, there have been major changes in the families of ferroelectric materials available for integration with CMOS electronics. These new materials, including Hf1-xZrxO2, Al1-xScxN, Al1-xBxN and Zn1-xMgxO, offer the possibility of new functionalities. This talk will discuss the possibility of exploiting the 3rd dimension in microelectronics for functions beyond interconnects, enabling 3D non-von Neumann computer architectures exploiting ferroelectrics for local memory, logic in memory, digital/analog computation, and neuromorphic functionality.
