Problems solved by technology

However, due to the high resistance of the AlN film, the device requires a very high activation voltage, resulting in poor resistance stability of the device, a large range of resistance in the high resistance state, and the device is easily broken down.
These all limit the wide application of ALD technology in the field of resistive memory

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductors, in particular to a preparation method of a resistive variable memory. Background technique [0002] With the development of the information industry, many new non-volatile storage devices have emerged, including ferroelectric memory, magnetic memory, phase change memory and resistive change memory (RRAM). Among these new memories, RRAM has broad application prospects due to its advantages of simple structure, low power consumption, fast read and write, and high-density storage. It is internationally recognized as a strong competitor for mainstream memory technologies below the 32nm node One of them is expected to become the next generation of "universal" non-volatile memory. [0003] RRAM utilizes the resistive switching characteristics of insulators or semiconductor materials to store information. The so-called resistive switch characteristic means that under the excitation of the pulse voltage, ...
