Problems solved by technology

[0005] For resistive variable memory, since the resistance switching phenomenon shown by its current-voltage characteristics is mainly attributed to conductive filaments, the structure and material properties of the device itself have an important impact on the formation of conductive filaments. In addition, the composition of conductive filaments Therefore, it is impossible to obtain the state density of resistive variable memory through first-principle calculations, and how to obtain the state density of resistive variable memory is a major technical problem at present.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for measuring the state density of a resistive random access memory. The method comprises the steps of testing a relaxation effect for measuring current of the resistive random access memory so as to obtain a current value measured by the experiment on the resistive random access memory, wherein the width of the state density of the resistive random access memory is selected according to the current value measured by the experiment; calculating the state density of the resistive random access memory according to the selected state density width of the resistive random access memory.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor memory, in particular to a method for measuring the state density of a resistive variable memory. Background technique [0002] Memory is an important class of semiconductor devices. With the continuous advancement of electronic technology, especially the continuous development of portable electronic devices, non-volatile memory accounts for an increasing share of the entire memory market, of which more than 90% Occupied by flash memory (Flash). However, as the size of the device continues to shrink, the development of Flash is limited. On the one hand, its programming voltage cannot be reduced proportionally. On the other hand, as the size of the device decreases and the tunnel oxide layer becomes thinner, the charge retention performance decreases. This makes the non-volatile resistive random access memory (Resistive Random Access Memory, RRAM), which stores data based on resistance chang...
