We focus on the P-E hysteresis response of the as-grown ZnO (ag-ZnO) and annealed-ZnO (ann-ZnO) films under dark and light conditions. The measurement of ferroelectric properties is performed by driving a positive voltage on the top-side of the films. Under the dark condition, a strong P-E response is observable on the ann-ZnO film due to the structural enhancement. The value of electrical coercivity from ferroelectric polarization is strongly related to the light illumination. The illumination treatment changed the P-E hysteresis of the ZnO films from symmetric to asymmetric. We found that higher energy illumination promotes a higher electric coercivity. These results confirmed that ferroelectric properties could be effectively tailored by tuning the energy of the light source. This interrelated electrical and optical properties is an important phenomenon to design a new light-induced non-volatile device application.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Electrical and optical properties,Ferroelectric polarization,Ferroelectric property,Hysteresis response,Illumination effect,Structural enhancements,Unbalanced magnetron sputtering,ZnO films[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Electrical properties,Ferroelectric,Illumination effect,ZnO film[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1088/2053-1591/aa56ce[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
