Abstract

The invention discloses a heterojunction which comprises a substrate and a ferroelectric film which grows on the substrate in an epitaxial mode, wherein the substrate is an n type doped silicon semiconductor or a p type doped silicon semiconductor, and the ferroelectric film is a SrTiO3 thin film. The invention further discloses a ferroelectric tunnel junction which comprises the heterojunction, wherein an upper electrode covers the surface of the ferroelectric film of the heterojunction, the ferroelectric film of the heterojunction is taken as the barrier layer of the ferroelectric tunnel junction, and the substrate of the heterojunction is taken as a lower electrode of the ferroelectric tunnel junction. The invention further discloses a preparation method and application of the heterojunction and the ferroelectric tunnel junction. According to the heterojunction, direct epitaxial growth of strontium titanate and non-intrinsic silicon is achieved, the stable polarization turning characteristic is expressed, the height of the barrier and the width of the barrier can be adjusted in an electrical modulation mode when the heterojunction is manufactured into the ferroelectric tunnel junction, and therefore the resistance of a tunnel is greatly improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a heterojunction and a preparation method thereof, a ferroelectric tunnel junction and a preparation method thereof, and the application of the ferroelectric tunnel junction in a memristor or a resistive switch device, belonging to the technical field of microelectronic materials. Background technique [0002] A heterojunction is an interface region where two different semiconductors meet. Heterojunctions can be manufactured by interfacial alloys, epitaxial growth, vacuum deposition and other technologies. Heterojunctions often have excellent photoelectric properties, making them suitable for making ultra-high-speed switching devices, solar cells, and semiconductor lasers. The tunnel junction consists of two metal electrodes sandwiched by a nanometer-thick insulating layer (ie, a barrier layer). Quantum mechanics tells us that an electron's wave function can penetrate the barrier with a certain probability. The transmittance ...
