Abstract

A GaAs non-volatile memory that retains data without power by using a ferroelectric capacitor memory storage element has been developed. A complete 2K/4K bit ferroelectric random access memory (FERRAM) and two test modules have been fabricated. Initial results on the test modules and the FERRAM have demonstrated the feasibility of this approach. This is believed to be the first demonstration of a non-volatile memory circuit using GaAs technology.
