The storage cell structure used in the DRAM chip is composed of a storage point and a control switch, wherein the storage point stores electric charge, and the more or less electric charge therein defines a bit binary data 1 or 0; the control switch controls the behavior of storing or dissipating electric charge in the storage point, and changes the data in the storage point.

[0098] The insulating dielectric layer wraps the above structure, sufficiently fills the exposed surface of the above structure, and separates the second part from the first part.
[0099] The ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM memory cell matrix, replacement write word line group, replacement read word line group, replacement write bit line group, replacement read bit line group, and ground line group described herein do not imply mandatory requirements on the type, structure, and arrangement of memory cells and the type, quantity, and arrangement of corresponding lines. In some embodiments, the memory cells used by the memory array layer may also be other volatile memory cells, and correspond to different types, quantities, and connection methods of lines, including but not limited to: such as Figure 7-1 As shown, a ferroelectric 1T0C-DRAM (1 transistor-0 capacitor-DRAM, ferroelectric single-transistor capacitor-free DRAM) memory cell; as Figure 7-2 As shown, a ferroelectric non-dual-gate 2T0C-DRAM memory cell; as Figure 7-3 As shown, a ferroelectric 3T0C-DRAM (3-transistors-0-capacitor-DRAM, ferroelectric three-transistor capacitor-free DRAM) memory cell; as Figure 7-4 As shown, ferroelectric 4TOC-DRAM (3 transistors-0 capacitor-DRAM, ferroelectric four-transistor capacitor-free DRAM) memory cells, etc.; however, in order for the normal operation of the following damaged cell handling operation, in the ferroelectric 2TOC-DRAM spare memory array layer, except that the memory device structure uses a ferroelectric layer, the selected ferroelectric memory cell type and the type and relative spatial position of each device in the ferroelectric memory cell must be the same as the memory cell used in the first part.

[0101] The spatial relationship of the two parts described herein does not represent a mandatory requirement for the spatial relationship of the two parts. In actual operation, the spatial relationship between the ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM backup storage array layer and the 2T0C-DRAM storage array layer needs to be designed by itself according to the type of storage unit used by the storage chip, design requirements, manufacturing process, test results and other factors.
[0102] As shown in Figure 1 , the backup unit replacement wire array 105 includes X*Y backup unit replacement wire groups 1051; wherein X is the number of columns of 2T0C-DRAM storage units in the 2T0C-DRAM storage unit matrix 101, and Y is the number of rows of 2T0C-DRAM storage units in the 2T0C-DRAM storage unit matrix 101.
[0103] As shown in Figure 8 , the backup unit replacement wire group includes one replacement write word line 801, one replacement read word line 802, one replacement write bit line 803, and one replacement read bit line 804.
[0104] Preferably, the connection mode of the backup unit replacement wire group with the three 2T0C-DRAM storage units 811-813 in the first part and the ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM storage unit 814 in the second part located in the same position in the horizontal projection is as shown in Figure 8 .
[0105] The replacement write word line 801 is perpendicular to the plane where the first part and the second part are located, and is connected in series with the corresponding three 2T0C-DRAM storage units 811-813 and one ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM storage unit 814; the specific connection mode is that the replacement write word line 801 is connected with each write word line where the three 2T0C-DRAM storage units 811-813 are located through anti-fuse material at the gate position of the write transistor of the three 2T0C-DRAM storage units 811-813, and the anti-fuse material and the above-mentioned electrical fuse material are respectively located on both sides of the write word line and do not directly contact, that is, the gate and the replacement write word line do not directly contact; the replacement write word line 801 is connected with the gate of the write transistor of the ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM storage unit 814 through anti-fuse material, and the anti-fuse material does not directly contact with the above-mentioned electrical fuse material.
[0106] The replacement read word line 802 is perpendicular to the plane where the first part and the second part are located, and is connected in series with the corresponding three 2T0C-DRAM memory cells 811-813 and one ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM memory cell 814; the specific connection mode is that the replacement write word line 801 is connected with each read word line where the three 2T0C-DRAM memory cells 811-813 are located through anti-fuse material at the second gate position of the double-gate read transistor of the three 2T0C-DRAM memory cells 811-813, and the anti-fuse material and the above-mentioned electrical fuse material are respectively located on both sides of the read word line and do not directly contact, that is, the second gate and the replacement read word line do not directly contact; the replacement read word line 802 is connected with the second gate of the ferroelectric double-gate read transistor of the ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM memory cell 814 through anti-fuse material, and the anti-fuse material does not directly contact with the above-mentioned electrical fuse material.
[0107] The replacement write bit line 803 is perpendicular to the plane where the first part and the second part are located, and is connected in series with the corresponding three 2T0C-DRAM memory cells 811-813 and one ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM memory cell 814; the specific connection mode is that the replacement write bit line 803 is connected with each write bit line where the three 2T0C-DRAM memory cells 811-813 are located through anti-fuse material at the source position of the write transistor of the three 2T0C-DRAM memory cells 811-813, and the anti-fuse material and the above-mentioned electrical fuse material are respectively located on both sides of the write bit line and do not directly contact; the replacement write bit line 803 is connected with the source of the write transistor of the ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM memory cell 814 through anti-fuse material, and the anti-fuse material does not directly contact with the above-mentioned electrical fuse material.

[0109] The antifuse material is a special kind of insulating material, which is characterized in that when a high voltage is applied across the material, a high current passing through the material will break down the material, causing the material to change from non-conductive to conductive.
[0110] The arrangement and connection of the cell replacement wire group described herein do not represent a mandatory requirement for the arrangement of the cell replacement wire group and the connection with the storage cell array layer. In actual applications, the cell replacement wire group needs to be designed by itself according to the type of storage cell, the size of the storage array, and other factors.
[0111] The present application only provides the main structure of the storage array embodiment, and does not include the use of materials, other additional structures, and subsequent packaging steps; in actual production, other structures and packaging can be designed by themselves according to the specific circumstances of function, technology, cost, etc.
[0112] As shown in Figure 9 Based on the above-mentioned three-dimensional 2T0C-DRAM storage array, the present application proposes a damaged cell replacement method for a three-dimensional 2T0C-DRAM storage array, which specifically includes:
[0113] S1. When the DRAM chip is in a working state, perform a global data write and read operation on the three-layer 2T0C-DRAM storage array layer once every four hours of working time, accompanied by an array refresh operation of the DRAM chip, to periodically detect the state of all 2T0C-DRAM storage cells in the 2T0C-DRAM storage array layer.
[0114] The DRAM chip is the upper layer architecture of the three-dimensional 2T0C-DRAM storage array proposed in the present application, and has complete DRAM functions. The array refresh operation is one of the necessary operations of the DRAM chip, which is a write operation on all DRAM storage arrays in the chip with the original saved data in the DRAM chip, to refresh the saved state of all DRAM storage cells and maintain the storage of the data in the storage cells.
[0115] The array refresh operation will have different operation strategies according to different DRAM chip types, such as setting different refresh speeds and refresh timing, but will not affect the global read and write operation of a single storage array. The DRAM storage space is divided into multiple arrays, and the refresh timing is the smallest unit of a single array, so the refresh in the three-dimensional 2T0C-DRAM storage array proposed in the present application must be performed according to the same timing.
[0116] S2. Compare the data written and read out of each 2T0C-DRAM storage cell in S2, and determine whether each 2T0C-DRAM storage cell is damaged based on the comparison.
[0117] All possible write and read results are divided into four cases, in which:
[0118] The first, the data written in the 2T0C-DRAM memory cell is 1, and the data read is 1;
[0119] The second, the data written in the 2T0C-DRAM memory cell is 1, and the data read is 0;
[0120] The third, the data written in the 2T0C-DRAM memory cell is 0, and the data read is 0;
[0121] The fourth, the data written in the 2T0C-DRAM memory cell is 0, and the data read is 1.
[0122] If the 2T0C-DRAM memory cell is damaged during operation, there are three possible reasons: first, the channel layer of the write transistor is broken down, causing the write transistor to fail to normally implement the behavior of controlling charge storage or dissipation, that is, the data cannot be stored in the double-gate read transistor; second, the channel layer of the double-gate read transistor is broken down, causing the double-gate read transistor to fail to normally perform the data read operation; third, the word line or bit line that controls the write and read of the memory cell is damaged, causing the memory cell to fail to receive data. The damage results of the 2T0C-DRAM memory cell caused by the three reasons are that the double-gate read transistor cannot read data in the read operation, that is, the data read is 0. Here, according to the data marking method commonly used by all DRAMs on the market, 1 corresponds to high voltage and 0 corresponds to low voltage, so the default cannot read data / cannot read voltage is read as 0. Due to the above reasons, according to the four cases of all possible write and read results, the following judgments can be made for whether the 2T0C-DRAM memory cell is damaged, in which:
[0123] The first, the data written and read in the 2T0C-DRAM memory cell are the same and both are 1, proving that the memory cell is not damaged;
[0124] The second, the data written and read in the 2T0C-DRAM memory cell are different, proving that the memory cell is damaged;
[0125] The third, under the premise that the written data is 0, whether the 2T0C-DRAM memory cell is damaged or not, the data read will be 0, so it is impossible to judge whether the 2T0C-DRAM memory cell is damaged or not, but since the data written and read in the 2T0C-DRAM memory cell are the same, it is temporarily considered that the memory cell is not damaged;
[0126] The fourth, on the premise that the written data is 0, the read data will be 0 regardless of whether the 2T0C-DRAM memory cell is damaged, so there is no such case.
[0127] The determination method of whether the 2T0C-DRAM memory cell is damaged in this step is also applicable to other DRAM memory cells.
[0128] S3. Mark the address of all damaged 2T0C-DRAM memory cells, and compare it with the lookup table in the code program responsible for recording the address of the ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM backup storage array containing the code program to determine whether the address of the ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM backup storage cell located directly above the cell has been replaced. If so, do not perform the following damaged cell replacement operation, but perform the existing faulty cell processing operation of other DRAM chips; otherwise, perform the damaged cell replacement operation S4.
[0129] S4. Apply high voltage to the write word line, read word line, write bit line and read bit line connected to the damaged 2T0C-DRAM memory cell; at the same time, turn on the write word line, read word line, write bit line and read bit line connected to the ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM backup memory cell located directly above the damaged 2T0C-DRAM memory cell. Here, it is not necessary to apply voltage to the write word line, read word line, write bit line and read bit line connected to the ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM memory cell located directly above the damaged 2T0C-DRAM memory cell. Because of the existence of the backup replacement wire group, the word line and bit line connected to the damaged 2T0C-DRAM memory cell pass through the backup replacement wire group and the word line and bit line connected to the ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM memory cell located directly above the damaged 2T0C-DRAM memory cell one by one and form an electric circuit, so that the replacement write word line, replacement read word line, replacement write bit line and replacement read bit line connected to the damaged 2T0C-DRAM memory cell and the corresponding ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM memory cell all pass through high current, and the corresponding 2T0C-DRAM memory cells located in other 2T0C-DRAM memory array layers do not pass through current.
[0130] Under the above operation, the damaged 2T0C-DRAM memory cell and the electrical fuse material between the write transistor gate, the second gate of the dual-gate read transistor, the write transistor source, the source of the dual-gate read transistor of the damaged 2T0C-DRAM memory cell and the corresponding connection of the write word line, the read word line, the write bit line and the read bit line, and the ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM backup memory cell located directly above the damaged 2T0C-DRAM memory cell and the electrical fuse material between the write transistor gate, the second gate of the ferroelectric dual-gate read transistor, the write transistor source, the source of the ferroelectric dual-gate read transistor of the ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM backup memory cell and the corresponding connection of the write word line, the read word line, the write bit line and the read bit line are all fused. At the same time, the anti-fuse material between the replacement write word line, the replacement read word line, the replacement write bit line, the replacement read bit line and the write word line, the read word line, the write bit line and the read bit line connected with the replacement line, and the anti-fuse material between the replacement write word line, the replacement read word line, the replacement write bit line, the replacement read bit line and the write transistor gate, the second gate of the ferroelectric dual-gate read transistor, the write transistor source, the source of the ferroelectric dual-gate read transistor of the ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM backup memory cell connected with the replacement line are all turned on. Thus, the damaged 2T0C-DRAM memory cell and the corresponding ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM memory cell and the write word line, the read word line, the write bit line and the read bit line connected with them are all disconnected, and the replacement write word line, the replacement read word line, the replacement write bit line and the replacement read bit line connected with them are all turned on.
[0131] At this time, the damaged 2T0C-DRAM memory cell is isolated from the 2T0C-DRAM memory array it belongs to; and the ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM backup memory cell directly above it is also isolated from the ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM backup memory array it belongs to, and then is accessed to the corresponding position of the damaged 2T0C-DRAM memory cell in the 2T0C-DRAM memory array. Thus, the ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM backup memory array covers and replaces the damaged 2T0C-DRAM memory cell, and the cell replacement operation is completed.
[0132] S5. Mark the address of the ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM memory cell replacing the damaged 2T0C-DRAM memory cell generated in step S4 as having been replaced. The purpose of this step is to avoid the disorder of the 2T0C-DRAM memory array caused by the continuous execution of step S4 when the 2T0C-DRAM memory cell in other layers corresponding to the ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM memory cell is damaged.
[0133] Through steps S1-S5, the processing mode of the 2T0C-DRAM storage unit damage problem generated in the working process of the 2T0C-DRAM storage array can be effectively supplemented; and since the electrical stability of the electric fuse material and the anti-fuse material is lower than that of the general conductor and insulator material, and the cycle endurance of the ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM storage unit is lower than that of the general DRAM, it is necessary to avoid step S4 from being implemented too much, otherwise it will cause the local stability of the 2T0C-DRAM storage array to be reduced. Therefore, in combination with the cycle endurance of the ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM storage unit and the average failure time of the 2T0C-DRAM storage unit, the three-dimensional 2T0C-DRAM storage array proposed in the present application selects to contain three layers of 2T0C-DRAM storage array layers, that is, each ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM standby storage unit undertakes the fault replacement work of the corresponding three 2T0C-DRAM storage units, which can better balance the damage unit replacement effect of the three-dimensional 2T0C-DRAM storage array and the utilization rate of the ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM standby storage array.
[0134] Since the entire storage array region contains many individual 2T0C-DRAM arrays, the ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM arrays located at the edge part of the 2T0C-DRAM storage region are generally used for storing programs. At the same time, the three-dimensional 2T0C-DRAM storage array proposed in the present application selects to contain three layers of 2T0C-DRAM storage array layers is also based on this consideration, that is, it is set in combination with the cycle endurance of the ferroelectric 2T0C-DRAM storage unit and the average failure time of the 2T0C-DRAM storage unit.
