Problems solved by technology

But using Ge 2 Sb 2 Te 5 The phase change memory of the material has a large volume change between amorphous and polycrystalline transitions, and the set (SET) time is longer than 100ns, or even more than 300ns, which leads to Ge 2 Sb 2 Te 5 Phase-change memory of materials cannot operate very fast
Amorphous and polycrystalline transition volume changes greatly, which will affect the adhesion of the film and the electrode, which is not conducive to the long-term stable operation of the device
At the same time, Te element is superior to toxic elements, which is harmful to the environment, and is poorly compatible with CMOS technology

Compared with the prior art, theSi-Sb-Se phase transition film material has faster crystallization rate, faster read-write rate and better data holding property than the commonly used Ge2Sb2Te5 material and better thermal stabilitythan SbSe binary material. Meanwhile, the material is free from element Te, thereby being environment friendly, and the material has good compatibility with the CMOS technique.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a phase-change thin film material in the field of microelectronics, in particular to a Si-Sb-Se phase-change thin film material used in a phase-change memory. Background technique [0002] Memory occupies an important position in the semiconductor market. Only DRAM (Dynamnic Random Access Memory) and FLASH occupy 15% of the entire market. With the gradual popularization of portable electronic devices, the market for non-volatile memory is also growing. At present FLASH occupies the mainstream of non-volatile memory, accounting for about 90%. However, with the advancement of semiconductor technology, FLASH has encountered more and more technical bottlenecks. First, the floating gate for storing charges cannot be thinned indefinitely with the development of integrated circuit technology. In addition, other shortcomings of FLASH technology also limit Its application, such as data writing is slow, high voltage is required when wri...
