Integration of Ferroelectric Hf x Zr 1-x O 2 on Vertical III-V Nanowire Gate-All-Around FETs on Silicon.

We demonstrate a successful process scheme for the integration of a CMOS-compatible ferroelectric gate stack on a scaled vertical InAs nanowire gate-all-around MOSFET on silicon. The devices show promising device characteristics with nanosecond write time and large memory window of >1.5 V. In the current implementation, the device performance is mainly limited by access resistance, which is attributed to the thermal sensitivity of InAs. The findings indicate that the ferroelectricity is not intrinsically preventing future improvements of scaled III-V FeFETs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
