Pushing the limits of NAND technology scaling with ferroelectrics Prasanna Venkatesan, Lance Fernandes, Sanghyun Kang, Priyankka Ravikumar, Taeyoung Song, et al. MRS Bulletin, 2025 Artificial intelligence (AI) continues to drive transformative advancements across various industries. The data-intensive nature of AI training (and inferencing) has resulted in the generation of unprecedented volumes of data with machine-generated content surpassing human-generated data by more than 100-fold in 2025. Efficiently managing this data influx necessitates advanced digital storage technologies. However, traditional NAND flash memory, which is critical for supporting data flows in AI systems—alongside high-bandwidth memory, for AI training—faces fundamental scaling limitations as it approaches the 1000-layer milestone, encompassing more than 40 trillion transistors. This article delves into the potential of hafnia-based ferroelectric materials as a breakthrough solution to these challenges. Recent advancements indicate that the intrinsic limitations of ferroelectric field-effect transistors (FEFETs) can be mitigated through material and device-level engineering. These advancements enable FEFETs to meet the stringent density, reliability, and scalability requirements of future three-dimensional NAND technology. The role of ferroelectrics in addressing NAND scaling challenges and expanding storage capabilities presents a promising avenue for meeting the storage demands of the AI-driven era.
