Ferroelectric materials have a naturally occurring charge polarization that can be reversed by an external electric field. They are used in electronic devices and computer memory, with lead titanate being extensively researched. Piezoelectric properties allow them to generate electricity when subjected to mechanical pressure or energetic stress. Barium titanate, lead zirconate titanate, and sodium nitrate […]
Ferroelectric RAM (FRAM) is a non-volatile solid-state data storage medium with low power consumption. It can be changed by applying an electric field and is often used in portable devices. FRAM uses lead zirconate titanate and has phase change memory. It has faster read-write speeds and lasts longer than EEPROM, making it a forerunner to […]
Ferroelectric RAM (FRAM) is a non-volatile solid-state data storage medium with low power consumption. It can be written electrically and is used in portable devices. The material used is lead zirconate titanate (PZT). FRAM has read-write access speeds 30,000 times faster than EEPROM and is a forerunner to racetrack memory, which is expected to be […]
