Abstract

The present application provides a method for regulating the storage state of a resistive variable memory. The resistive variable memory includes two electrode layers and an insulating layer between the two electrode layers. The two electrode layers are respectively the first electrode layer and the second electrode layer. At least one electrode layer is a ferromagnetic electrode layer. The storage state regulation method Including: step S1, applying a first voltage between two electrode layers, so that the potential of at least one ferromagnetic electrode layer is higher than the potential of the other electrode layer, so that a magnetic channel is formed in the insulating layer; step S2, applying a voltage to the two electrodes A second voltage is applied between the layers to cause a phase transition of the ferromagnetic material in one of the ferromagnetic electrode layers. This control method does not involve the fracture process of conductive filaments, which alleviates the fluctuation of resistance transition, and makes the RRAM array formed by RRAM more widely used. This control method is easy to operate, can reduce the cost of memory peripheral circuit design, and is beneficial to Its large-scale integration and practical application.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the field of memory, and in particular, to a method for regulating and controlling the storage state of a resistive variable memory. Background technique [0002] Resistive RAM (RRAM) utilizes the reversible resistance transition effect of materials to store information. It has the advantages of simple device structure, high speed, low power consumption, and strong embeddability. It is a promising prospect for potential applications in the next generation of non-volatile memory. of memory. [0003] However, one of the most important challenges in practical applications is the fluctuation of its transition parameters. Well controlling the changes of these parameters can reduce the fluctuation of RRAM and improve the reliability of devices. Especially in the ECM (electrochemical metallization mechanism) type RRAM, there are fluctuations in the growth and fracture of conductive filaments, including the size of the filam...
