Abstract
The present disclosure relates a ferroelectric field-effect transistor (FeFET) device. The FeFET device includes a ferroelectric structure having a first side and a second side. A gate structure is disposed along the first side of the ferroelectric structure, and an oxide semiconductor is disposed along the second side of the ferroelectric structure. The oxide semiconductor has a first semiconductor type. A source region and a drain region are disposed on the oxide semiconductor. The gate structure is laterally between the source region and the drain region. A polarization enhancement structure is arranged on the oxide semiconductor between the source region and the drain region. The polarization enhancement structure includes a semiconductor material or an oxide semiconductor material having a second semiconductor type that is different than the first semiconductor type.
