The 3D vertical poly-Si channel FeFET has demonstrated with memory window 1.65 V in this work. The architecture of channel first process benefits for write/read effectively due to individual access for each FeFET to eliminate Vpass by NAND. Furthermore, the crystalline of ferroelectric HfZrO2 is improved with word-line metal contact directly. The high depolarization field is attributed to thick interfacial layer and leads data retention degradation in this work. Index Terms—Poly-Si, FeFET, memory window
