Abstract
A ferroelectric device includes a substrate, a first electrode on the substrate, and a hexagonal ferroelectric material on the first electrode. The first electrode comprises a single crystal epitaxial material. By using a single crystal epitaxial material for an electrode to a hexagonal ferroelectric material, a high-quality material interface may be provided between these layers, thereby improving the performance of the ferroelectric device by allowing for a reduced coercive field.
