Abstract:
Techniques, systems, and devices for time-resolved access of memory cells in a memory array are described herein. During a sense portion of a read operation, a selected memory cell may be charged to a predetermined voltage level. A logic state stored on the selected memory cell may be identified based on a duration between the beginning of the charging and when selected memory cell reaches the predetermined voltage level. In some examples, time-varying signals may be used to indicate the logic state based on the duration of the charging. In some examples, the duration of the charging may be based on a polarization state of the selected memory cell, a dielectric charge state of the selected state, or both a polarization state and a dielectric charge state of the selected memory cell.

Claim (Index 10):
A method, comprising:\n sensing a first state associated with a ferroelectric capacitor of a ferroelectric memory cell; sensing a second state associated with a middle electrode positioned between the ferroelectric capacitor and a selection component of the ferroelectric memory cell; and identifying a logic state stored in the ferroelectric memory cell based at least in part on sensing the first state associated with the ferroelectric capacitor and sensing the second state associated with the middle electrode.
