Two‐Dimensional Ferroic Materials for Non‐volatile Memory Applications

Abstract

AbstractThe emerging non‐volatile memory technologies based on ferroic materials are promising for producing high‐speed, low‐power, and high‐density memory in the integrated circuits field. Long‐range ferroic orders observed in two‐dimensional (2D) materials have triggered extensive research interest in 2D magnets, 2D ferroelectrics, 2D multiferroics and their device applications. Devices based on 2D ferroic materials and heterostructures with an atomically smooth interface and ultrathin thickness have exhibited impressive properties and significant potential for developing advanced non‐volatile memory. In this context, this paper conducts a systematic review of emergent 2D ferroic materials, emphasizing their recent research on non‐volatile memory applications, with a view to proposing brighter prospects for 2D magnetic materials, 2D ferroelectric materials, 2D multiferroic materials and their relevant devices.This article is protected by copyright.
