In a study published in Advanced Electronic Materials, imec researchers demonstrate ferroelectricity in 10 nm polycrystalline BaTiO₃ films on silicon, unlocking a path to low-power, non-volatile memory. Unlike traditional perovskite ferroelectrics requiring epitaxial growth, these films offer high remnant polarization (13 µC/cm²) in a scalable, production-friendly form. Enabled by a novel platinum silicide layer, this breakthrough brings high-performance perovskite ferroelectrics closer to real-world semiconductor integration. Read more: https://lnkd.in/eKpdQPd9. 

Yesterday, together with KU Leuven, we officially opened the imec running and walking route on the Arenberg campus! With two activity trails, we aim to encourage both our employees and visitors to take an active break during the workday. Whether it's walking, jogging, or even holding a meeting outdoors, it's all possible! Taking time to move helps you stay physically and mentally sharp, boosting well-being and driving creativity, and innovation.", says Katrien Marent, EVP & CMO at imec. A great step toward a more active workday! Will you join us? 🚶♀️🏃♂️ This initiative was made possible with the support of Sport Vlaanderen and Minister of Sport Annick De Ridder.
