Problems solved by technology

When performing a read operation on a three-dimensional memory, the same conduction voltage is applied to each memory cell on the memory string formed by the same channel hole. If the channel hole where the memory cell is located has a smaller aperture, then The electric field intensity brought to the memory cell by the turn-on voltage will be relatively large, which will cause read interference to the memory cell after multiple reads

Abstract

The present invention relates to a three-dimensional memory and a control method thereof, the three-dimensional memory comprising a plurality of memory strings, each of the memory strings comprising aplurality of memory cells, the plurality of memory cells comprising a first portion and a second portion; the diameter of a channel structure corresponding to the memory cells of the first portion isless than the diameter of a channel structure corresponding to the memory cells of the second portion. The method comprises the following steps: when a read operation is carried out on a selected memory cell, applying conduction voltages to unselected memory cells, wherein a first conduction voltage is applied to first unselected memory cells in the first portion, a second conduction voltage is applied to second unselected memory cells in the second portion, and the first conduction voltage is smaller than the second conduction voltage. According to the method, the read interference of memorycells with a small channel structure diameter is reduced, and the reliability of the three-dimensional memory is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the manufacturing field of integrated circuits, in particular to a three-dimensional memory and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] In order to overcome the limitations of two-dimensional memory devices, memory devices with a three-dimensional (3D) structure have been developed and mass-produced in the industry, which improves integration density by three-dimensionally arranging memory cells on a substrate. 3D NAND flash memory is a three-dimensional memory device. As the number of stacked layers increases, the trench holes will become deeper and deeper. Since the upper pore diameter of the channel hole is larger than the lower pore diameter, the difference between the upper pore diameter and the lower pore diameter of the channel hole will increase with the deepening of the channel hole. When performing a read operation on a three-dimensional memory, the same conduction voltage is applied to each memory c...
