Abstract

We have explored the switching in ferroelectric capacitors of PZT over the range in lateral area, from A > 100 to 0.19 μ m2, and over several orders of magnitude in ramp rate of applied field. We found that the LYD model fits PZT capacitors of size 166 μ m2, and implies an activation field agr of 622 ± 20 kV/cm. However, nano-cell capacitors of areas 0.32 and 0.19 μ m2 conform with the PK theory, in which nucleation and domain movement are both important. Fringing field effects due to mesa-structured capacitors gives the excess capacitance satisfies an empirical correction formula of Δ C/C = L-0.36, particularly as the aspect ratio increases.
