ABSTRACT:
A method of manufacturing a ferroelectric transistor is provided by which the characteristic of the transistor is not degraded because of a heated process. The ferroelectric transistor has a gate unit on the underlying structure. The gate unit includes a gate electrode, a ferroelectric film and a gate insulation film deposited on one another in this order. A channel layer is provided on the gate insulation film. A first main electrode and a second main electrode are provided in a spaced apart manner on the channel layer. The channel layer is used as a channel in operating the transistor. Thus, the carrier density of the channel is controlled by using the spontaneous polarization of the ferroelectric film.
