Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation for a phase-transition memory material of amorphous thin film Ag1-x-yGexSey, wherein, x is less than 0.3 and more than 0.1, y is less than 0.60 and more than 0.38, x and y are atomic ratio, AGS for short. Based on the resistance switching effect, a non-volatile phase-transition memory is designed and prepared. The memory comprises totally five layers, a layer of non-reactive electrode (2, platinum or high-conductivity silicon) is deposited on the surface of the substrate (1), an insulating and barrier layer (3, silicon dioxide) is deposited on the non-reactive electrode (2), meanwhile a millipore is etched at the middle part, the diameter of the millipore decides the component size, a AGS thin film layer (4) is deposited on the insulating layer (3), and finally a reactive electrode (5, Ag) is deposited on the film surface. The phase-transition memory has the advantages of small size, simple structure, non-volatility, fast reading and writing, low operating voltage, low power consumption, high writable times and non-destructive read out.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of microelectronic devices and materials thereof, and specifically relates to a material and a preparation method of a novel non-volatile high-density storage device capable of fast reading and writing, which are applied to information storage. Background technique [0002] Non-volatile memory is one of the most important and widely used memory. The traditional non-volatile memory is mainly magnetic memory. Its main disadvantage is that writing and reading must rely on mechanically moving parts such as magnetic heads. Therefore, the access speed is very low and the volume is large, and the recording density is difficult to further increase. In recent years, people have developed magnetic random access memory (M-RAM) relying on spintronic materials. It needs to introduce a magnetic field in the process of reading and writing, and its structure is complex. It has not yet been put into the market. Recently, th...
