ABSTRACT:
A memory including an array of memory cells, each of which includes a ferroelectric field effect transistor (FET) as its memory element; and sense and refresh circuitry connected to the array of memory cells to read stored data within each cell by sensing source-to-drain conductivity of the ferroelectric transistor and to refresh the stored data.
