Abstract
Design considerations and initial experimental results are presented for a photoconductor-ferroelectric memory scheme employing monoclinic bismuth titanate as the ferroelectric. Photoconductor access during writing has been achieved, and the non-destructive optical READ capability of bismuth titanate has been demonstrated. These results indicate that by means of such a device, a completely optically accessed memory plane is possible.
