Abstract: Provided is a ferroelectric semiconductor device including a source and a drain having different polarities. The ferroelectric semiconductor may include a ferroelectric including zirconium oxide (ZrO2), hafnium oxide (HfO2), and/or hafnium-zirconium oxide (HfxZr1?xO, 0<x<1). The semiconductor device may have memory-like characteristics.

Abstract: Provided is a ferroelectric semiconductor device including a ferroelectric layer and two or more electrode layers. The semiconductor device may include a first electrode layer and a second electrode layer which have thermal expansion coefficients less than the thermal expansion coefficient of the ferroelectric layer. The difference between the thermal expansion coefficients of the second electrode layer and the ferroelectric layer may be greater than the difference between the thermal expansion coefficients of the first electrode layer and the ferroelectric. The second electrode layer may have a thickness greater than the thickness of the first electrode layer.

Abstract: A semiconductor device and a method for manufacturing the semiconductor device are provided. The semiconductor device includes: a substrate: a drain region vertically disposed on the substrate; a body region vertically disposed on the drain region; a source region vertically disposed on the body region; a bit-line connected to the drain region and extending in a first direction; and a word-line connected to the source region and extending in a second direction that is different from the first direction. The drain region, the body region, and the source region together define a pillar extending in a third direction that is perpendicular to the first and second direction.
