Abstract
En 中文
This study is focused on Conductive Bridging Random Access Memory (CBRAM) devices based on chalcogenide electrolyte and Cu-supply materials, and aims at identifying the key material parameters controlling memory properties. The CBRAM devices investigated are integrated on CMOS select transistors, and are constituted by either Ge-Se or Ge-Te electrolyte layers of various compositions combined with a Cu2GeTe3 active chalcogenide electrode. By means of extensive physical and electrical characterization, we show for a given electrolyte system that slower write is obtained for a denser electrolyte layer, which is directly correlated with a lower atomic percentage of the chalcogen element in the layer. We also evidence that the use of Ge-Se electrolyte results in larger write energy (voltage and time), however with improved state retention properties than for Ge-Te electrolyte materials. We associate these results with the stronger chemical bonding of Cu with Se, resulting both in a stabilized Cu filament and a slower Cu cation motion. More robust processing thermal stability is also observed for Ge-Se compared to Ge-Te compounds, allowing more flexibility in the integration flow design.
