Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of microelectronics phase change materials and preparation methods thereof, in particular to a kind of Al / Ge used for phase change memory 10 Sb 90 Superlattice-like phase-change thin film material and preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Memory occupies an important position in the semiconductor market. Only DRAM (dynamnicRandamAccessMemory) and FLASH occupy 15% of the entire market. With the gradual popularization of portable electronic devices, the market for non-volatile memory is also growing. The mainstream of volatile memory, about 90%. However, with the advancement of semiconductor technology, FLAH has encountered more and more technical bottlenecks. First, the floating gate that stores charges cannot be thinned indefinitely with the development of integrated circuit technology. In addition, some other shortcomings of FLASH technology also limit his. application. [0003] Phase change m...
