For that purpose, we have developed a generalized and fast multidomain phase-field based compact model for the metal-ferroelectric-metal (MFM) capacitor. Time-dependent Landau-Ginzburg (TDGL) and Poisson\u2019s equations are solved self-consistently to model the polarization dynamics. Besides, empirical relationships for voltage-dependent kinetic and gradient energy coefficients are formulated and the physical reasoning behind them is described. After calibrating the model with the experimental results of two most promising ferroelectric materials hafnium zirconium oxide and barium titanate, we plan to do a comprehensive comparison between their performance in memory circuit. Finally, we plan to carry out system level simulations and quantify how much performance enhancement can be achieved by incorporating the ferroelectric memory block at its suitable level in memory hierarchy.\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Physics based modeling of emerging ferroelectric devices and performance benchmarking of memory circuits"}],"uid":"28475","created_gmt":"2023-04-13 19:44:36","changed_gmt":"2023-04-20 20:29:00","author":"Daniela Staiculescu","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2023-04-24T13:00:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2023-04-24T15:00:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2023-04-24T15:00:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2023-04-24 17:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2023-04-24 19:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2023-04-24 19:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"location":"Online","extras":[],"related_links":[{"url":"https:\/\/teams.microsoft.com\/l\/meetup-join\/19%3ameeting_MmJmYzI4ZDEtZGZiYS00OGEyLWI0MWYtNDIwNjMzYmQwM2Y0%40thread.v2\/0?context=%7b%22Tid%22%3a%22482198bb-ae7b-4b25-8b7a-6d7f32faa083%22%2c%22Oid%22%3a%22118b5a0d-2b67-4a5f-ba8e-1a83f58bcb3a%22%7d","title":"Microsoft Teams link"}],"groups":[{"id":"434371","name":"ECE Ph.D. Proposal Oral Exams"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"192346","name":"PhD Proposal, graduate students"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1788","name":"Other\/Miscellaneous"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78771","name":"Public"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
