Abstract
An embodiment of the invention is a method of manufacturing a polymer for a polymer ferroelectric memory. In particular, and among other features, the method of an embodiment alters the ferroelectric transition temperature, or Curie temperature, of the polymer by rapidly cooling the polymer from an elevated temperature. In particular, an embodiment increases the Curie temperature of the polymer, expanding the operating range of a polymer ferroelectric memory formed therewith.
