We fabricated the metal-ferroelectric-insulator-semiconductor filed-effect transistors (MFIS-FETs) using the $(Bi,La)_4Ti_3O_{12}\;and\;LaZrO_x$ thin films. The $LaZrO_x$ thin film had a equivalent oxide thickness (EOT) value of 8.7 nm. From the capacitance-voltage (C-V) measurements for an Au/$(Bi,La)_4Ti_3O_{12}/LaZrO_x$/Si MFIS capacitor, a hysteric shift with a clockwise direction was observed and the memory window width was about 1.4 V for the bias voltage sweeping of ${\pm}9V$. From drain current-gate voltage $(I_D-V_G)$ characteristics of the fabricated Fe-FETs, the obtained threshold voltage shift (memory window) was about 1 V due to ferroelectric nature of BLT film. The drain current-drain voltage $(I_D-V_D)$ characteristics of the fabricated Fe-FETs showed typical n-channel FETs current-voltage characteristics.

Current status and prospects of FET-type FeRAMs (ferroelectric random access memories) are reviewed. First, it is described that the most important issue for realizing FET-type FeRAMs is to improve the data retention characteristics of ferroelectric-gate FETs. Then, necessary conditions to prolong the retention time are discussed from viewpoints of materials, device structure, and circuit configuration. Finally, recent experimental results related to the FET-type memories are introduced, which include optimization of a buffer layer that is inserted between the ferroelectric film and a Si substrate, development of a new ferroelectric film with a small remnant polarization value, proposal and fabrication of a 1T2C-type memory cell with good retention characteristics, and so on.

Ferroelectric thin films have been widely investigated for future nonvolatile memory application. We fabricated the BLT ($(Bi,La)_4Ti_3O_{12}$) films on Si using a STA ($SrTa_2O_6$) buffer layer BLT and STA film were prepared by sol-gel method. Measurement data by XRD and AFM, showed that BLT film and STA films were well crystallized and a good surface morphology. From C-V measurement reward that the Au/BLT/STA/Si structure showed a clockwise hysteresis loop with a memory window of 1.5 V for the bias voltage sweep of ${\pm}5$ V. From results, the Au/BLT/STA/Si structure is useful for FeFETs.
