Abstract

The invention relates to a Sb-Te-Ti phase-change thin-film material capable of being used for a phase-change memory, and preparation and application of the Sb-Te-Ti phase-change thin-film material. The novel Sb-Te-Ti phase-change storage material is prepared by doping Ti into a Sb-Te phase-change material, the doped Ti forms bonds with both Sb and Te, and the chemical general formula of the Sb-Te-Ti phase-change storage material is SbxTeyTi100-x-y, wherein x is more than 0 and less than 80, and y is more than 0 and less than 100-x. When the phase-change storage material is a Ti-Sb2Te phase-change storage material, a Ti atom replaces a Sb atom without phase separation. The grain growth is dominant in the crystallization process of the conventional Sb-Te phase-change material, so that the phase change rate is high, but the retention cannot meet industrial requirements. The crystallization temperature of the novel Sb-Te-Ti phase-change storage material is greatly raised, the retention is promoted, and the thermal stability is enhanced; simultaneously, the non-crystalline state resistance is reduced and the crystalline state resistance is increased; and the novel Sb-Te-Ti phase-change storage material can be widely applied to the phase-change memory.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a phase-change material and a preparation method thereof, in particular to a Sb-Te-Ti phase-change thin film material which can be used in a phase-change memory. Background technique [0002] The principle of phase change memory (PCRAM) is to use the chalcogenide compound as the storage medium, and use electric energy (heat) to convert the material between the crystalline state (low resistance) and the amorphous state (high resistance) to realize the writing and erasing of information. , The readout of information is achieved by measuring the size of the resistance and comparing its high resistance "1" or low resistance "0". [0003] The crystallization process of Sb-Te series phase change materials is dominated by grain growth, so the phase change rate is fast, and the melting point is higher than that of GST (Ge 2 Sb 2 Te 5 ) is low, so the required power consumption is low. However, Sb-Te series phase change materials al...
