Embodiments of ferroelectric memory devices and methods for forming the ferroelectric memory devices are disclosed. In an example, a ferroelectric memory cell includes a first electrode, a second electrode, a ferroelectric layer disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode, and a recess between a side surface of at least one of the first electrode or the second electrode and a side surface of the ferroelectric layer.

Described is a packaging technology to improve performance of an AI processing system. An IC package is provided which comprises: a substrate; a first die on the substrate, and a second die stacked over the first die. The first die includes memory and the second die includes computational logic. The first die comprises a ferroelectric RAM (FeRAM) having bit-cells. Each bit-cell comprises an access transistor and a capacitor including ferroelectric material. The access transistor is coupled to the ferroelectric material. The FeRAM can be FeDRAM or FeSRAM. The memory of the first die may store input data and weight factors. The computational logic of the second die is coupled to the memory of the first die. The second die is an inference die that applies fixed weights for a trained model to an input data to generate an output. In one example, the second die is a training die that enables learning of the weights.

According to an embodiment, a memory device includes a first conductive layer extending in a first direction, a second conductive layer extending in the first direction, a third conductive layer extending in a second direction intersecting with the first direction, an insulating layer provided between the first conductive layer and the second conductive layer, and a dielectric layer provided between the first conductive layer and the third conductive layer, and between the insulating layer and the third conductive layer, the dielectric layer having a first thickness thinner than a second thickness, the first thickness being a thickness between the first conductive layer and the third conductive layer, the second thickness being a thickness between the insulating layer and the third conductive layer, and the dielectric layer including an oxide including at least one of hafnium oxide and zirconium oxide.

Some embodiments include an integrated assembly having bottom electrodes coupled with electrical nodes. Each of the bottom electrodes has a first leg electrically coupled with an associated one of the electrical nodes, and has a second leg joining to the first leg. First gaps are between some of the bottom electrodes, and second gaps are between others of the bottom electrodes. The first gaps alternate with the second gaps. Insulative material and conductive-plate-material are within the first gaps. Scaffold structures are within the second gaps and not within the first gaps. Capacitors include the bottom electrodes, regions of the insulative material and regions of the conductive-plate-material. The capacitors may be ferroelectric capacitors or non-ferroelectric capacitors. Some embodiments include methods of forming integrated assemblies.

A packaging technology to improve performance of an AI processing system resulting in an ultra-high bandwidth system. An IC package is provided which comprises: a substrate; a first die on the substrate, and a second die stacked over the first die. The first die can be a first logic die (e.g., a compute chip, CPU, GPU, etc.) while the second die can be a compute chiplet comprising ferroelectric or paraelectric logic. Both dies can include ferroelectric or paraelectric logic. The ferroelectric/paraelectric logic may include AND gates, OR gates, complex gates, majority, minority, and/or threshold gates, sequential logic, etc. The IC package can be in a 3D or 2.5D configuration that implements logic-on-logic stacking configuration. The 3D or 2.5D packaging configurations have chips or chiplets designed to have time distributed or spatially distributed processing. The logic of chips or chiplets is segregated so that one chip in a 3D or 2.5D stacking arrangement is hot at a time.

Methods, systems, and devices for deck selection layouts in a memory device are described. In some implementations, a tile of a memory array may be associated with a level above a substrate, and may include a set of memory cells, a set of digit lines, and a set of word lines. Selection transistors associated with a tile of memory cells may be operable for coupling digit lines of the tile with circuitry outside the tile, and may be activated by various configurations of one or more access lines, where the various configurations may be implemented to trade off or otherwise support design and performance characteristics such as power consumption, layout complexity, operational complexity, and other characteristics. Such techniques may be implemented for other aspects of tile operations, including memory cell shunting or equalization, tile selection using transistors of a different level, or signal development, or various combinations thereof.
