Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of semiconductor, in particular to a same-thickness non-crosstalk two-dimensional floating gate structure integrated with access region device or without access region device. BACKGROUND

[0002] At present, when the traditional floating gate memory device is scaled down to the order of ten nanometers, it faces severe challenges such as retention degradation, endurance limitation, adjacent cell interference, preparation process limitation and random telegraph noise; and two-dimensional materials have unique advantages such as atomic thickness, ultra-high stacking freedom, excellent optoelectronic properties and rich material system, which have become a key direction to break through the bottleneck of traditional technology. At present, the floating gate field effect transistor based on two-dimensional heterostructure has to a great extent alleviated the core problems of traditional devices.

[0003] However, the two-dimensional floating gate device structures with access region and without access region which are focused on in current research still have significant research limitations:

[0004] Firstly, the access region refers to the region where the source and drain electrodes do not coincide with the floating gate layer in the vertical direction. The existence of the access region in the device structure leads to the difference in channel control mode and charge tunneling path of the floating gate device. However, due to the difference in the types of materials (including channel layer, tunneling layer and floating gate layer) of the two structure devices with and without access region, the properties of the two devices are greatly different, and the performance of the two devices cannot be effectively compared.

[0005] Secondly, even if the materials of each layer of the device are the same, the thickness of each layer of material will also have a significant impact on the performance of the device. The thickness of the channel layer affects the band gap width, and thus affects the working current size; the thickness of the tunneling layer affects the tunneling barrier size, which directly affects the charge tunneling starting voltage and tunneling current size; the thickness of the floating gate layer affects its quantum capacitance and state density, and thus affects the storage window size. Therefore, under the condition that the thickness of each layer of material is different, the storage performance of the two structure devices cannot be effectively compared.

[0006] In summary, due to the difference in material type or thickness, the storage performance (such as storage window, retention, endurance, etc.) of the two structure devices with and without access region cannot be effectively compared and analyzed, and the specific influence mechanism of channel control mode and charge tunneling path on storage performance is still unclear. This limits the in-depth study of the performance difference between the two common floating gate structure devices, and hinders the further optimization of the design of floating gate memory devices. SUMMARY

[0007] The embodiment of the present application provides a same-thickness non-crosstalk two-dimensional floating gate structure integrated with access region device and non-access region device, to solve the technical problem of how to design and prepare a floating gate memory device structure in the prior art, so that the same-thickness non-crosstalk two-dimensional floating gate structure integrated with access region device and non-access region device can realize effective comparison of the performance of the two structure devices in the same device under the premise of ensuring that the materials and thicknesses of all layers are completely the same, thereby determining the influence mechanism of different channel control modes and charge tunneling paths on the storage performance.

[0023] The application further provides a preparation method of the same-thickness non-crosstalk two-dimensional floating gate structure of the integrated access / non-access area device, which comprises the following steps:

[0024] S1. Obtain two-dimensional material layers with equal thickness as the access area floating gate layer and the non-access area floating gate layer of the device by a mechanical exfoliation method, wherein the two-dimensional material thin layer is graphene or molybdenum telluride; and transfer the two-dimensional material layers to a clean SiO2 / p ++ Si substrate layer by using a PDMS assisted dry transfer method.

[0025] S2. Spin a layer of PMMA photoresist on the substrate layer carrying the access area floating gate layer and the non-access area floating gate layer to form a protective layer.

[0026] Perform pattern exposure on the PMMA photoresist by using an electron beam lithography (EBL) process; after exposure, form a PMMA photoresist etching-resistant layer by developing and fixing steps; wherein the part to be etched is not covered by PMMA to expose it; and the other part is protected by PMMA.

[0027] Put the sample treated by the electron beam exposure and developing and fixing process into a reactive ion etching (RIE) device, use oxygen as the etching gas, and etch the floating gate layer with uniform thickness into two separated parts with relatively narrow and wide rectangular shapes respectively, which will be the access area floating gate layer and the non-access area floating gate layer respectively.

[0028] Remove the PMMA photoresist etching-resistant layer on the sample by using acetone to restore the surface of the floating gate layer.

[0029] S3, preparation and transfer of the tunneling layer and the channel layer:

[0030] The two-dimensional material of the tunneling layer and the channel layer with uniform thickness is prepared by a mechanical exfoliation method, and the tunneling layer is transferred to the separated floating gate layer with an access region and the floating gate layer without an access region at a preset angle and position by using a PDMS-assisted dry transfer method.

[0031] The channel layer is transferred to the transferred tunneling layer by using a PDMS-assisted dry transfer method; in the vertical direction, the channel layer needs to cover most of the area of the floating gate layer with an access region and the floating gate layer without an access region;

[0034] Under high vacuum conditions, metal materials are evaporated onto the surface of the sample by a thermal evaporation process to form electrode structures; the evaporated metal will form two pairs of source electrodes, drain electrodes and floating gate electrodes in the device without an access region and the device with an access region according to the pattern exposed by the electron beam; that is, the floating gate electrode with an access region, the source electrode with an access region, the drain electrode with an access region, the floating gate electrode without an access region, the source electrode without an access region and the drain electrode without an access region.

[0035] Part of the silicon dioxide on the surface of the silicon wafer substrate is removed by using a diamond knife, and part of the bare heavily doped silicon is used as a common bottom gate.

[0036] In the present application, the device with an access region and the device without an access region are integrated, and the channel layer, the tunneling layer and the floating gate layer of the two devices share the same two-dimensional material with uniform thickness, respectively, which ensures the consistency of the thickness and properties of the layers of the two devices. This design enables effective comparison of the storage performance of the devices with / without an access region structure under strict control of variables, providing a scientific and reliable way to explore the universal difference in storage performance of the two common floating gate structure devices, which helps to understand the specific influence mechanism of different channel control modes and charge tunneling paths on the storage performance.

[0054] ​A tunnel layer 5 is located above the access region floating gate layer 3 and the non-access region floating gate layer 4; in the vertical direction, the tunnel layer 5 covers most of the access region floating gate layer 3 and the non-access region floating gate layer 4.

[0055] A channel layer 6 is located above the tunnel layer 5; the access region floating gate layer 3 and the channel layer 6 are not in contact with each other, and the non-access region floating gate layer 4 and the channel layer 6 are not in contact with each other; the channel layer 6 is electrically isolated from the access region floating gate layer 3 and the non-access region floating gate layer 4 by the tunnel layer 5, and is electrically isolated from the bottom gate electrode by the insulating layer 2, and is subjected to voltage regulation by the two floating gate layers and the bottom gate electrode.

[0057] An access region source electrode 8 and an access region drain electrode 9 are located above the channel layer 6 in the direction of the access region floating gate layer 3 and are symmetrically arranged about the two ends of the channel layer 6; and are electrically connected based on the channel layer 6; in the horizontal direction, the access region source electrode 8 and the access region drain electrode 9 are not in contact with each other; in the vertical direction, the access region source electrode 8, the access region drain electrode 9 and the floating gate electrode 3 have no overlapping area.

[0058] A non-access region floating gate electrode 10 is located above the non-access region floating gate layer 4; the non-access region floating gate electrode 10 is electrically connected to the non-access region floating gate layer 4, and in the horizontal direction, the non-access region floating gate electrode 10 and the channel layer 6 are not in contact with each other.

[0059] A non-access region source electrode 11 and a non-access region drain electrode 12 are located above the channel layer 6 in the direction of the non-access region floating gate layer 4 and are symmetrically arranged about the two ends of the channel layer 6; and are electrically connected based on the channel layer 6; in the horizontal direction, the non-access region source electrode 11 and the non-access region drain electrode 12 are not in contact with each other; in the vertical direction, the non-access region source electrode 11, the non-access region drain electrode 12 and the floating gate electrode 4 have overlapping areas.

[0060] In an embodiment, the bottom gate electrode is made of heavily p-type doped monocrystalline silicon (p ++ Si) or heavily n-type doped monocrystalline silicon (n ++ Si) material; the insulating layer 2 is silicon dioxide (SiO2).

[0061] In an embodiment, the access region floating gate layer 3 and the non-access region floating gate layer 4 are both made of graphene (Gr) or molybdenum ditelluride (MoTe2) with equal thickness.

[0062] In an embodiment, the tunneling layer 5 is made of hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN); the channel layer 6 is made of transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDs), including tungsten diselenide (WSe2), molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) or molybdenum ditelluride (MoTe2).

[0063] In an embodiment, the access region floating gate electrode 7, the access region source electrode 8, the access region drain electrode 9, the non-access region floating gate electrode 10, the non-access region source electrode 11 and the non-access region drain electrode 12 are all made of one or more of gold, silver, platinum, titanium, chromium and nickel.

[0064] In an embodiment, the access region source electrode 8 and the access region drain electrode 9 have no overlapping area with the access region floating gate layer 3; the non-access region source electrode 11 and the non-access region drain electrode 12 have overlapping area with the non-access region floating gate layer 4.

[0065] As shown in Figures 2 to 6 The present application also provides a preparation method of the same-thickness non-crosstalk two-dimensional floating gate structure of the integrated access / non-access region device, comprising:

[0066] S1, obtain a two-dimensional material layer with equal thickness as the access region floating gate layer 3 and the non-access region floating gate layer 4 of the device by mechanical exfoliation method, the two-dimensional material thin layer is graphene or molybdenum ditelluride; use PDMS assisted dry transfer method to transfer the two-dimensional material layer to a clean SiO2 / p ++ Si substrate layer 1;

[0067] As shown in Figure 5 S2 is to spin a layer of PMMA photoresist on the substrate layer 1 carrying the access region floating gate layer 3 and the non-access region floating gate layer 4 to form a protective layer.

[0068] Use electron beam exposure (EBL) process to pattern expose the PMMA photoresist, after exposure, through development and fixing steps to make PMMA photoresist etching resist layer; wherein the part that needs to be etched is not covered with PMMA to expose it; other parts are protected by PMMA.

[0069] The sample processed by electron beam exposure and developing fixation process is put into a reactive ion etching (RIE) device, and an oxygen (O2) gas is used as etching gas to etch the uniform thickness floating gate layer into two separated parts with relatively narrow and wide rectangular shapes, which will be used as the access region floating gate layer 3 and the non-access region floating gate layer 4 respectively.

[0070] The PMMA photoresist etch-resistant layer on the sample is removed using acetone to restore the surface of the floating gate layer.

[0071] As can be understood, in this step S2, the original single floating gate layer is ingeniously etched into two independent parts, i.e., the access region floating gate layer and the non-access region floating gate layer. Both of the two floating gate layers are derived from the same piece of two-dimensional material with uniform thickness, which fundamentally ensures their consistency in thickness and material properties. At the same time, the problem of charge crosstalk caused by sharing the same floating gate layer is effectively eliminated through physical separation. This innovative design not only ensures the high consistency of the floating gate layers of the access region and non-access region devices in physical properties, but also fundamentally solves the problem of storage charge crosstalk caused by sharing the floating gate layer in traditional design, providing a solid foundation for subsequent device performance testing and comparative analysis.

[0072] As shown in Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 , the S3 is the preparation and transfer of the tunneling layer 5 and the channel layer 6.

[0073] The two-dimensional materials of the tunneling layer 5 and the channel layer 6 with uniform thickness are prepared by mechanical exfoliation method, and the PDMS-assisted dry transfer method is used to transfer the tunneling layer 5 to the separated access region floating gate layer 3 and non-access region floating gate layer 4 at a preset angle and position.

[0074] The PDMS-assisted dry transfer method is used to transfer the channel layer 6 to the transferred tunneling layer 5; in the vertical direction, the channel layer 6 needs to cover most of the area of the access region floating gate layer 3 and the non-access region floating gate layer 4.

[0075] Understandably, in this step S3, the key of this step is that the tunneling layer 5 and the channel layer 6 of the two devices share the same piece of two-dimensional material with uniform thickness respectively, so as to ensure the same thickness and material properties. Its functions and purposes mainly have three aspects: first, to ensure that the two devices with access area and without access area maintain high consistency in the material properties of the tunneling layer 5 and the channel layer 6, providing a fair test basis for subsequent performance comparison; second, to realize precise coverage of the tunneling layer 5 and the channel layer 6 through precise transfer angle and position control, creating conditions for electrical connection and function realization of the device; third, this design of sharing the same material helps to simplify the preparation process, improve the consistency and reliability of the device, and at the same time reduce the risk of performance fluctuation caused by material differences.

[0076] As shown in Figure 6 S4, preparation of electrodes and bottom gate:

[0077] A layer of PMMA photoresist is coated on the surface of the sample as a patterning mask, and an electronic beam exposure process is used to expose the preset electrode pattern to the photoresist.

[0078] Under high vacuum conditions, metal material is evaporated onto the surface of the sample by a thermal evaporation process to form an electrode structure; the evaporated metal will form two pairs of source electrodes, drain electrodes and floating gate electrodes in the device without access area and the device with access area according to the pattern exposed by the electron beam; that is, the floating gate electrode 7 of the device with access area, the source electrode 8 of the device with access area, the drain electrode 9 of the device with access area, the floating gate electrode 10 of the device without access area, the source electrode 11 of the device without access area and the drain electrode 12 of the device without access area.

[0079] A diamond knife is used to remove part of the silicon dioxide on the surface of the silicon substrate, and part of the heavily doped silicon is exposed as a common bottom gate.

[0080] Understandably, in this step S4, by coating PMMA photoresist on the surface of the sample and using an electron beam exposure process, the preset electrode pattern is accurately transferred to the photoresist, and then under high vacuum conditions, metal material is evaporated onto the surface of the sample by a thermal evaporation process, thereby forming a specific electrode structure. This process not only ensures the accurate patterning of the electrodes, but also realizes the electrical connection of the two pairs of source electrodes, drain electrodes and floating gate electrodes of the device without access area and the device with access area, providing the necessary conditions for subsequent device testing and performance evaluation. In addition, by using a diamond knife to remove part of the silicon dioxide on the surface of the silicon substrate, part of the heavily doped silicon is exposed as a common bottom gate, providing a unified gate control for the entire device, simplifying the electrical control and testing process of the device. This step not only ensures the consistency and reliability of the device, but also realizes the difference in electrical characteristics between the device with access area and the device without access area, laying a solid foundation for subsequent performance testing and comparative analysis.

[0081] In an embodiment, the preset angle and position in step S3 need to satisfy:

[0082] The tunneling layer 5 covers most of the separate access region floating gate layer 3 and non-access region floating gate layer 4 to ensure that the access region device and the non-access region device have the same thickness and material properties of the tunneling layer; part of the access region floating gate layer 3 and the non-access region floating gate layer 4 is not covered by the tunneling layer 5 to ensure that a small part of the floating gate layer is exposed, which facilitates the subsequent direct contact of the access region floating gate electrode 7 and the non-access region floating gate electrode 10 with the access region floating gate layer 3 and the non-access region floating gate layer 4, respectively, to realize electrical connection.

[0083] In an embodiment, in step S4, in the non-access region device, the non-access region source electrode 11 and the non-access region drain electrode 12 have a coincident region with the non-access region floating gate layer 4 in the vertical direction, so that there is no access region in the device, and a source / drain electrode / tunneling layer / floating gate layer heterostructure is formed, so that there is a charge tunneling path from the source / drain electrode to the floating gate layer in the device.

[0084] In the access region device, the access region source electrode 8 and the access region drain electrode 9 have no coincident region with the access region floating gate layer 3 in the vertical direction, so that there is an access region in the device, and there is also no charge tunneling path from the source / drain electrode to the floating gate layer in the device due to the absence of a source / drain electrode / tunneling layer / floating gate layer heterostructure.

[0085] The above-described embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, rather than limit them; although the foregoing embodiments of the present application have been described in detail, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or make equivalent replacements for some technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, and should be included in the protection scope of the present application.

The two-dimensional material thin layer is graphene or molybdenum telluride. The upper two-dimensional material layer is transferred to a clean SiO2 / p surface using a PDMS-assisted dry transfer method. ++ On the Si substrate (1); S2. A layer of PMMA photoresist is spin-coated onto the substrate layer (1) containing the floating gate layer (3) with access area and the floating gate layer (4) without access area to form a protective layer; Electron beam lithography (EBL) is used to pattern PMMA photoresist. After exposure, a PMMA photoresist etch-resistant layer is formed through development and fixing steps. The areas to be etched are exposed without being covered by PMMA, while other areas are protected by PMMA. The sample that has been processed by electron beam exposure and development and fixing is placed in a reactive ion etching (RIE) device. Oxygen is used as the etching gas. Under the preset radio frequency voltage and gas pressure, the uniform thickness of the floating gate layer is etched into two separate parts with narrower and wider rectangular shapes, respectively. These two parts will be used as the floating gate layer with access area (3) and the floating gate layer without access area (4), respectively.
