摘要
Flexible memory devices are promising for information storage and data processing applications in portable,wearable,and smart electronics operating under curved conditions.In this work,we realized high-performance flexible ferroelectric capacitors based on Hf_(0.5)Zr_(0.5)O_(2)(HZO)thin film by depositing a buffer layer of Al_(2)O_(3)on polyimide(PI)substrates using atomic layer deposition(ALD).The flexible ferroelectric HZO films exhibit high remnant polarization(Pr)of 21μC/cm^(2).Furthermore,deterioration of polarization,retention,and endurance performance was not observed even at a bending radius of 2 mm after 5,000 bending cycles.This work marks a critical step in the development of high-performance flexible HfO_(2)-based ferroelectric memories for next-generation wearable electronic devices.
