abstract = {Hysteretic resistance effects based on a correlation
between ferroelectric polarization and conductivity might
become of particular interest for nonvolatile memory
applications, because they are not subject to the scaling
restrictions of charge based memories such as the
ferroelectric random access memory. Two basic concepts, a
metal-ferroelectric-metal structure and a
metal-ferroelectric-semiconductor structure are discussed in
the literature. This contribution discusses the principle of
operation of those concepts in terms of the band model. A
generalized model is proposed, which is based on a
conductive metal-ferroelectric-semiconductor-metal
structure. Here, the existence of a low and a high
conductive state originates from a switch of the
polarization in the ferroelectric layer and a resulting
positive or negative polarization charge at the
ferroelectric-semiconductor interface. Charge carriers in
the film are attracted by or depleted at the interface
giving rise to different local conductivities. By
simulation, the effect of internal screening caused by
mobile charge carriers on the hysteretic current-voltage
behavior and the depolarizing field in the ferroelectric are
estimated. The simulation discloses a switching ratio up to
several orders of magnitude and a conductivity window, which
scales with the donor concentration. It may also explain
resistive switching in systems consisting only of one
ferroelectric layer by assuming the presence of
nonferroelectric interface layers. (c) 2006 American
