Study of Multi-level Characteristics for 3D Vertical Resistive Switching Memory

چکیده
Three-dimensional (3D) integration and multi-level cell (MLC) are two attractive technologies to achieve ultra-high density for mass storage applications. In this work, a three-layer 3D vertical AlOδ/Ta2O5-x/TaOy resistive random access memories were fabricated and characterized. The vertical cells in three layers show good uniformity and high performance (e.g. >1000X HRS/LRS windows, >10(10) endurance cycles, >10(4) s retention times at 125°C). Meanwhile, four level MLC is demonstrated with two operation strategies, current controlled scheme (CCS) and voltage controlled scheme (VCS). The switching mechanism of 3D vertical RRAM cells is studied based on temperature-dependent transport characteristics. Furthermore, the applicability of CCS and VCS in 3D vertical RRAM array is compared using resistor network circuit simulation.

ReRAM has been considered as a promising candidate to overcome scaling limits of the conventional FLASH memory due to its superior performance. To realize the high density memory, 3D cross-point array or vertical ReRAM are necessary [1]. To integrate cross-point (4F) ReRAM device array, we need to develop bi-directional selector device to suppress the sneak current path through the unselected d...
