The authors experimentally determine the self\u2010assembled FeRAM stored data more robustly, with temperature endurance enhanced over 10 \u00b0C and reliable thermal cycling ability. The article shows a novel path to address the thermal stability issues in organic FeRAMs and presents a detailed analysis about the origin of enhanced performance in aligned P(VDF\u2010TrFE). *<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\" NanoWorld Arrow-CONTPt AFM probes (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nanoworld.com\/contact-mode-platinum-coated-afm-tip-arrow-contpt\" target=\"_blank\"> NanoWorld Arrow-CONTPt AFM probes<\/a> with a conducting Pt\/Ir coating  were used for the Piezoresponse Force Microscopy ( PFM ) measurements described in this article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"872\" src=\"https:\/\/dhipgo7nn2tea.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/10123611\/figure-4-from-Flexible-Robust-and-High%E2%80%90Density-FeRAM-from-Array-of-Organic-Ferroelectric-Nano%E2%80%90Lamellae-by-Self%E2%80%90Assembly-by-Mengfang-Guo-et-al-1024x872.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dhipgo7nn2tea.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/10123611\/figure-4-from-Flexible-Robust-and-High%E2%80%90Density-FeRAM-from-Array-of-Organic-Ferroelectric-Nano%E2%80%90Lamellae-by-Self%E2%80%90Assembly-by-Mengfang-Guo-et-al-1024x872.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/dhipgo7nn2tea.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/10123611\/figure-4-from-Flexible-Robust-and-High%E2%80%90Density-FeRAM-from-Array-of-Organic-Ferroelectric-Nano%E2%80%90Lamellae-by-Self%E2%80%90Assembly-by-Mengfang-Guo-et-al-300x256.jpg 300w, https:\/\/dhipgo7nn2tea.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/10123611\/figure-4-from-Flexible-Robust-and-High%E2%80%90Density-FeRAM-from-Array-of-Organic-Ferroelectric-Nano%E2%80%90Lamellae-by-Self%E2%80%90Assembly-by-Mengfang-Guo-et-al-768x654.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dhipgo7nn2tea.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/10123611\/figure-4-from-Flexible-Robust-and-High%E2%80%90Density-FeRAM-from-Array-of-Organic-Ferroelectric-Nano%E2%80%90Lamellae-by-Self%E2%80%90Assembly-by-Mengfang-Guo-et-al-736x627.jpg 736w, https:\/\/dhipgo7nn2tea.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/10123611\/figure-4-from-Flexible-Robust-and-High%E2%80%90Density-FeRAM-from-Array-of-Organic-Ferroelectric-Nano%E2%80%90Lamellae-by-Self%E2%80%90Assembly-by-Mengfang-Guo-et-al.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption> Figure 4 from \u201c<em>Flexible Robust and High\u2010Density FeRAM from Array of Organic Ferroelectric Nano\u2010Lamellae by Self\u2010Assembly<\/em>\u201d by Mengfan Guo et al.:<br> Enhanced thermal stability in SA P(VDF\u2010TrFE). a\u2013c) PFM images of data stored in self\u2010assembled film at a) 25 \u00b0C and b) 90 \u00b0C, as well as c) numeric figure of residual area of reversal domains as a function of elevated temperature in a SA film (blue) and a NSA film (red). d) Numeric figure of residual area of reversal domains as a function of thermal cycles in a SA film (blue) and a NSA film (red).
