Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of nanoelectronic devices, and particularly to a two-dimensional material multi-port reconfigurable device structure and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In the past few decades, in order to meet the growing demand for chip computing power, integrated circuit technology has been continuously developed following Moore's law. However, it is becoming increasingly challenging to improve the chip integration by shrinking the feature size of transistors to enhance the chip computing power. Because the feature size of transistors has approached the physical limit, effects such as short-channel and quantum tunneling lead to an increase in tunneling and leakage current, affecting the performance of transistors. Therefore, in the post-Moore era, it is necessary to introduce new materials, new device structures, and new computing architectures to break through the limitations of traditional technologies.

[0003] Recently, a technology that can achieve dynamic reconfiguration during device operation has been proposed. Its characteristic is that it can realize multiple functions on a single device, overcoming to a certain extent the problem of the single function of traditional metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs). It is expected to achieve a more complex system with a smaller number of devices. By changing the electrical input of the reconfigurable device, the type of channel carriers can be flexibly switched between p-type and n-type in the same device, realizing the behavior of unipolar p-type or unipolar n-type transistors. In contrast, the type of channel carriers of transistors fabricated by traditional CMOS technology is fixed as unipolar p-type or n-type during the ion implantation process. And the reconfigurable device can also realize specific circuit functions composed of multiple CMOS transistors. For example, traditional logic gate circuits usually need to be composed of several CMOS transistors in combination, while the reconfigurable device can flexibly realize various logic functions such as AND gates, OR gates, and NOT gates on a single device. In addition, more complex circuit functions, such as adders and subtractors, can also be completed by a single reconfigurable device. The integration of such functions reduces the number of transistors, while improving the flexibility and overall performance of the circuit.

[0004] The realization of reconfigurable devices has been explored in materials such as silicon nanowires, memristors, and carbon nanotubes. For reconfigurable silicon nanowire devices, their nanowire manufacturing process is complex and the functions are limited. Reconfigurable memristors are non-volatile two-terminal devices, which can only be reconfigured through the input and output terminals and do not have separate control terminals for reconfiguration, which limits the flexibility of function switching. Summary of the Invention

Among them, the top view of the device is as shown in Figure 2 shown. The channel electrode layer 3 is directly connected to the two-dimensional material layer 5. At the same time, the side gate electrode layer 4, as the side gate electrode, is not connected to the two-dimensional material layer 5 and is used to regulate the carrier type, density and transport mechanism of the two-dimensional material layer 5, realizing free switching among n-type, p-type or undoped states.

[0010] Preferably, the shape of the two-dimensional material layer 5 includes a nano-ring and a nano-circle. The material of the two-dimensional material layer 5 includes graphene, transition metal sulfides, and transition metal selenides.

[0011] In one embodiment, any two electrodes connected to the active region in the device are selected as input electrodes, another different electrode is used as the output electrode, and other electrodes are used as control electrodes to affect the output characteristics. By measuring the voltage-current data between the input-output electrodes and the control-output electrodes, and then setting a loss function according to the target function, the voltage parameters of the appropriate control electrodes are found through gradient descent or evolutionary algorithms, and the found parameters are verified in the device to implement logic operation functions or arithmetic operation functions. For example, various logic operation functions such as AND gate, OR gate, and NOT gate can be implemented on a single device. In addition, more complex arithmetic operation functions, such as adders and subtractors, can also be completed by a single device.

[0037] The following detailed description refers to the accompanying drawings that form a part of this specification. The illustrative embodiments mentioned in the specification and drawings are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can understand that many other embodiments can also be adopted, and various changes can be made to the described embodiments without departing from the gist and scope of protection of the present invention. It should be understood that the various aspects of the present invention described and illustrated herein can be arranged, replaced, combined, separated, and designed in many different configurations, and these different configurations are all included in the present invention.

[0038] Example 1:

[0039] The technical solutions and objectives of the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0040] The reconfigurability of the device of the present invention is achieved by electrostatic doping regulation of the gate on the bipolar two-dimensional material active region channel, and different functions can be realized by applying different gate voltage combinations. Taking the realization of the most basic p-type or n-type transistor as an example, by applying a negative or positive voltage on the side gate, according to the working principle of the parallel plate capacitor, corresponding p-type carriers or n-type carriers will be induced in the bipolar two-dimensional material channel, realizing p-type doping or n-type doping of the channel, and forming a p-type transistor or an n-type transistor. Different from the traditional PMOS transistor or NMOS transistor: this doping is reversible and can be freely switched between n-type, p-type or undoped states; while the doping situation of the channel of the traditional PMOS transistor (NMOS transistor) cannot be changed once determined by the ion implantation process.

[0041] Furthermore, to achieve the p-n junction function in a two-dimensional material multi-port device, we can select separate side gates to apply opposite biases (negative voltage and positive voltage), and utilize the local control of the side gate on the channel, resulting in p-type and n-type doping in adjacent channel regions, forming a p-n junction, as Figure 6 shown. When applying source-drain voltages of different polarities, the conductance of the p-n type (or n-p type) channel will exhibit opposite behaviors. In particular, the positions of the p-type region and the n-type region of the traditional p-n junction diode are fixed, while the device of the present invention can be switched between p-n type or n-p type diodes by changing the polarity of the side gate voltage.

[0042] Furthermore, the device of the present invention can also be combined with a neural network to implement basic Boolean logic gate functions and more complex classification tasks. To implement basic Boolean logic gate functions, such as AND, NOT, OR and other Boolean logic functions, any two electrodes connected to the active region in the device can be selected as input electrodes, and another different electrode as the output electrode, and other electrodes as control electrodes to affect the output characteristics. By measuring the voltage-current data between the input-output electrodes and the control-output electrodes, a neural network is used to model it, and then a loss function is set according to the target function. The voltage parameters of the appropriate control electrodes are found through gradient descent or evolutionary algorithms, and finally the found parameters are verified in the device to implement the logic operation function. Therefore, according to the functions required by the device, based on the definition of input, output, and control electrodes, sufficient data is collected and modeled using DNN to implement more complex arithmetic operation functions, such as adders, subtractors, etc.

[0043] Example 2:

[0044] This example illustrates a multi-port reconfigurable device made of graphene material and its process manufacturing flow.

[0045] The device layout of this example is as Figure 3 shown. Among them, the central circular ring part represents the circular graphene channel. 8 nanoelectrodes are used as side gate electrodes and do not contact the graphene channel, which are used to control the channel doping situation; 8 nanoelectrodes are connected to the graphene channel, which are used to realize multi-port input and output. Further, the front line width of the nanoelectrode is 20 nm, the distance between the nano side gate electrode and the edge of the graphene channel is 50 nm, and the overlapping length between the nanoelectrode connected to the channel and the graphene channel is 50 nm. The graphene layer is patterned by electron beam lithography into a nano-ring with a diameter of 580 nm and a ring width of 70 nm.

[0046] The device is composed of a highly doped substrate silicon (p-type or n-type), a silicon dioxide layer (with a thickness of 300 nm), a metal electrode layer, and a graphene layer from bottom to top.

[0047] Figure 4 FIG. is a schematic process flow diagram of the device of this example fabricated by Method 1, showing the process flow of fabricating a graphene multi-port reconfigurable device.

[0048] In this example, the preparation process of the graphene multi-port reconfigurable device includes the following steps:

[0049] (1) First, pattern the nanoelectrodes and alignment mark layer on the silicon / silicon oxide substrate by electron beam lithography. To obtain a smaller line width and good electrode morphology, we need to use PMMA electron beam photoresist with a thickness of less than 100 nm and a high-voltage, high-resolution electron beam exposure device. Then, use an electron beam evaporation or thermal evaporation device to deposit and lift off metal Ti (10 nm) / Au (40 nm) to fabricate the nanoelectrodes and alignment marks.

[0050] (2) On the basis of completing the fabrication of the nanoelectrodes, use a laser direct writing device to align and fabricate the microelectrode layer connected to the nanoelectrodes for electrical connection. In this step, use a magnetron sputtering device to deposit metal Ti (10 nm) / Au (60 nm), and then lift off to complete the fabrication of the microelectrodes.

[0051] (3) On the basis of completing the electrode fabrication, use the method of wet-assisted transfer of graphene with PMMA to transfer graphene to the silicon / silicon oxide substrate on which the electrode fabrication has been completed. The following further explains the specific transfer steps:

[0052] a) Cut the copper substrate with monolayer graphene grown on it into squares of 1 cm * 1 cm. Then, spin-coat the electron beam photoresist PMMA A4 on the sample surface to support graphene during the transfer process.

[0053] b) After the electron beam photoresist on the sample surface dries naturally, turn the side without spin-coated electron beam photoresist upwards, and use reactive ion etching (RIE) to remove the graphene on this side to avoid affecting the transfer quality.

[0054] c) Transfer the sandwich structure of copper foil / graphene / electron beam photoresist obtained in the previous step with the side spin-coated with photoresist upwards to the copper etching solution, and make the sample float on the surface of the solution. Preferentially use ammonium persulfate (APS) copper etching solution with a mass fraction of 10%.

[0055] d) After the copper foil under the graphene is completely etched, use a glass slide to transfer the graphene / electron beam photoresist film to clean water and wash it three times to remove the copper etching solution.

[0056] e) Finally, transfer the graphene / electron beam photoresist to the surface of the substrate with metal electrodes, let it stand for drying and baking, and then put the sample into an acetone solution to remove the electron beam photoresist PMMA to complete the transfer of graphene.

[0057] (4) After completing the transfer of graphene, use laser direct writing to pattern the graphene region at the microscale, and then use a reactive ion etching (RIE) device to remove the exposed graphene.

[0058] (5) Finally, use an electron beam lithography equipment to pattern the graphene nanoscale channels. After etching, resist stripping, and annealing, the fabrication of the graphene multi-port reconfigurable device is completed.

[0059] Example 3:

[0060] The difference between this example and Example 2 is that the channel material is changed to molybdenum disulfide to fabricate the multi-port reconfigurable device, and the device is fabricated by the process of Method 2.

[0061] The device layout is the same as that in Example 2. The following mainly elaborates on the fabrication process.

[0062] The device consists of a highly doped substrate silicon (p-type or n-type), a silicon dioxide layer (with a thickness of 300 nm), a molybdenum disulfide layer, and a metal electrode layer from bottom to top.

[0063] The fabrication process flow of the device in this example is as Figure 5 shown, which shows a schematic diagram of the fabrication process flow of the molybdenum disulfide multi-port reconfigurable device fabricated by Method 2.

[0064] The fabrication process of the molybdenum disulfide multi-port reconfigurable device in this example includes the following steps:

[0065] (1) First, pattern the alignment mark layer on the silicon / silicon dioxide / molybdenum disulfide substrate through electron beam lithography. Using electron beam lithography to fabricate alignment marks is beneficial for achieving a smaller overlay error. Then, use an electron beam evaporation or thermal evaporation equipment to deposit and strip metal Ti (10 nm) / Au (60 nm) to fabricate the alignment marks. The thickness requirement of the alignment marks is above 70 nm.

[0066] (2) Use a laser direct writing equipment to overlay and fabricate the microelectrode layer connected to the nanoelectrodes for realizing the electrical connection of the device. In this step, use an electron beam evaporation, thermal evaporation, or magnetron sputtering equipment to deposit metal Ti (10 nm) / Au (60 nm), and then strip.

[0067] (3) Use a laser direct writing equipment to pattern molybdenum disulfide at the microscale. After photolithography and development, use a reactive ion etching equipment (RIE) to etch the excess molybdenum disulfide.

[0068] (4) Use an electron beam lithography equipment to pattern molybdenum disulfide at the nanoscale. After photolithography and development, use a reactive ion etching equipment to remove the exposed molybdenum disulfide.

[0069] (5) Finally, electron beam lithography equipment is used to make nanoelectrodes connecting the MoS2 channel and the micro-electrode. In order to reduce the defects of MoS2 during the coating process, electron beam evaporation or thermal evaporation coating equipment is used in this step to evaporate Ti (10 nm) / Au (60 nm) at a low rate of about 0.2 Å / s. After peeling and annealing, the preparation of the MoS2 multi-port reconfigurable device is completed.
