Abstract
AbstractFerroelectric δ‐phase comprising polyvinylidene fluoride (δ‐PVDF) thin films are prepared via spin‐coating followed by high‐temperature annealing and rapid ice quenching, where, the requirement of a high electric field (~MV/m) is circumvented. Herein, ferroelectric responses, that is, “write,” “erase,” and “read” pulses on as prepared δ‐PVDF thin film, have been demonstrated through piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM). A metal‐ferroelectric‐insulator–semiconductor (MFIS) diode containing δ‐PVDF has shown a capacitance–voltage (C–V) hysteresis with a notable memory window of 7.5 V up to a temperature of 140°C, overcoming lower fatigue temperatures, limited by Curie transition in co‐polymer P(VDF‐TrFE). A very stable polarization state is reflected by a holding period of a capacitance state of 10 h, where only a 5% loss of its initial value is noticed. The excellent ferroelectric response and retention behavior of the δ‐PVDF thin film may open up new opportunities in the field of high‐endurance non‐volatile memories.
