Problems solved by technology

[0004] Chinese patent CN106206943B discloses a nitrogen-doped modified phase-change thin film material and its preparation method. Doping foreign N atoms in the Zn-Sb material can increase the phase transition temperature of the material, but too much N atom doping will lead to Zn 15 Sb 85 Loss of phase change properties, making it unusable for phase change memory and synaptic devices
In addition, the SET speed of Zn-Sb material after N doping is still above 100 ns, and the phase transition speed is still slow

Abstract

The invention discloses a mushroom-shaped structure nerve synapse bionic device, which is of a mushroom-shaped structure prepared by adopting a 0.13-micron CMOS process, and comprises a substrate prepared from a Si (100) substrate, an Al material bottom electrode, a SiO2 intermediate dielectric layer, a W heating electrode formed on the intermediate dielectric layer, a Ti-Zn-Sb storage medium layer, a TiN adhesion layer and an Al material top electrode from bottom to top in sequence. The Ti<x>(Zn<y>Sb<100-y>)<1-x> phase change material is used as a storage medium in the neural synapse bionic device, conversion among multi-state resistance values can be realized under the action of 5-500 ns electric signal pulse width, an intermediate-state resistance value can provide about 8-bit resolution, and the switch resistance difference is about 2 orders of magnitude. Under the same pulse operation, the linear response of the resistor to the number of pulses can be realized, and the electrical property requirement of the synaptic bionic device is met.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductor devices, and in particular relates to a bionic device of a mushroom-shaped structure nerve synapse. Background technique [0002] Synapse is the smallest unit of learning and memory in the human brain. It receives external stimulation signals to make neurons excitatory and inhibitory, thereby inputting and outputting signals. The biomimetic simulation of synapse learning function is considered to be an important means to realize artificial neural network. Synaptic devices are mainly used to connect neurons, and their poor performance directly affects the efficiency and accuracy of artificial neural network processing. Lu et al. discovered a nano-silicon-based memristor, which can simulate the basic properties of synapses, and has efficient computing methods and densities (Nano Letters, 2010, 10(4): 1297-1301). Wang et al proposed a biomimetic device based on amorphous InGaZnO synapses, whi...
