Problems solved by technology

This technology can theoretically be stacked infinitely, but the current mainstream preparation method has a lengthy process and complicated process. If the preparation process of two-dimensional planar single-layer devices is simplified, the preparation process of three-dimensional memory devices can be greatly improved and the success of the process can be improved. rate, and even increase the number of layers of 3D stacking

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of microelectronic devices and memory, and discloses a preparation method of a phase change memory array, which specifically includes: depositing a multilayer film structure on a substrate, including a bottom electrode layer, a heating electrode layer, and a gate material layer , connection barrier layer, phase change functional layer. After the thin film is prepared, only one photolithography process is used to pattern the entire part above the bottom electrode, and then it is etched to fill the electric and thermal isolation insulating layer between the units, and a separate top electrode is prepared through an additional photolithography process to obtain the bottom electrode- Functional Materials - Top Electrode Structurally Complete and Operable Phase Change Memory Arrays. The reduction in the number of photolithography processes in the process can not only reduce the cost in the production process, but also improve production efficiency and yield. At the same time, the simplification of the preparation process of two-dimensional planar single-layer devices can greatly improve the preparation process of three-dimensional memory devices. Therefore, a three-dimensional memory technology in which two-dimensional planar single-layer memories are stacked in multiple layers in the vertical direction is realized.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention belongs to the field of micro-nano-electronic technology, and more relates to a data memory, and more particularly to a method of preparing a phase change memory array. Background technique [0002] In today's electronic technology and the rapid development of the information industry, as data is explosive, people's demand for non-volatile memory is increasing. The phase change memory (PCM) has the advantages of high integration, fast response speed, long and low power consumption, and so on by the International Semiconductor Industry Association to become the future mainstream reservoir. [0003] The basic principle of the phase change memory cell is to use the electrical pulse signal to the device unit, so that the phase change thin film material can be retrofitable between amorphous and polysone to achieve "0" and "1" storage. A narrow pulse width, high-value electrical pulse is applied to the RESET operation, and the crystalline-st...
