Abstract
A capacitor-less DRAM cell based on ferroelectric-gate memory transistor structure is introduced. Compared to the conventional DRAM cell, it offers much simpler cell structure, longer retention time, easier scaling, and lower power consumption. Cell size of 4F2 can be realized. It is also most suitable for embedded applications.
