I. Hafnium oxide based ferroelectric materials and devices 

Ferroelectric memories based on hafnium oxide(HfO2) have the advantages of ultra-low power consumption, small-scale, high speed, and non-volatility, and are promising for applications in  next-generation integrated circuit. With research centered on HfO2-based ferroelectric field-effect transistor (FeFET), our group investigates the physical mechanism in ferroelectric materials and devices, aims to solve the key challenge associated with the FeFET device and integration, and discovers innovative application in integrated circuit. The research focus of this direction includes:

  • Study of ferroelectric materials mechanisms based on novel fabrication and characterization techniques
  • Fabrication and integration of high endurance FeFETs
  • Device-Array-Circuit co-optimization for novel computing architecture

II. Novel device and architecture based on phase change oxide

The metal-insulator phase transition of vanadium dioxide(VO2) displays various physical characteristics, which could realize the intelligent control of mechanical, optical, electrical and thermal properties and multi-field coupling. Therefore VO2 has extensive applications in advanced memory, brain-like computing, sensor and thermal management. Our group focuses on infrared sensor based on VO2, and by combining with ferroelectric devices, we explore new device and architecture toward in-sensor memory and computing. The research focus of this direction includes:

  • Design of high-performance infrared sensor and in-sensor computing
  • New principle devices based on coupling of ferroelectrics and phase change materials
