Original Abstract Submitted
A transistor includes a gate electrode, a ferroelectric layer, a source pattern, a drain pattern, and a channel layer. The ferroelectric layer is disposed on the gate electrode. The source pattern and the drain pattern are disposed over the ferroelectric layer. The channel layer has a base and fins protruding from the base. The base is in contact with the ferroelectric layer. The fins are located between the source pattern and the drain pattern.
