Abstract
A semiconductor memory device is constituted by arranging a plurality of memory cells in a matrix format, each of which includes a thin-film capacitor having a ferroelectric film and a pair of electrodes facing each other via the ferroelectric film, and a transfer gate transistor connected to the thin film capacitor. A voltage corresponding to the width of a hysteresis curve obtained when the thin-film capacitor is saturated and polarized falls within the range of 5% or higher to 20% or lower of the voltage difference between the positive and negative directions in a writing operation. A remanent polarization amount obtained when the thin-film capacitor is saturated and polarized falls within the range of 5% or higher to 30% or lower of the total polarization amount obtained upon application of a voltage in the writing operation.
