Resistive memory having rectifying characteristics or an ohmic contact layer
InactiveUS20130214235A1Improvement in memory device characteristicHigh currentDiodeBulk negative resistance effect devicesHigh resistanceElectrical resistance and conductance
Disclosed is a resistive memory simultaneously having rectifying characteristics and resistive characteristics according to a bias direction, wherein a resistive diode is interposed between electrodes at the top and bottom thereof. The resistive diode has a form in which a p-type resistive semiconductor layer is bonded to an n-type resistive semiconductor layer. When a high reverse bias is applied to the resistive diode, the resistive diode forms a conductive filament. When a forward bias is applied thereafter, a reset that destroys a portion of the formed conductive filament occurs, and as a result, a high resistance state is formed. Additionally, when a reverse bias is applied again, a set operation regenerating a conductive filament occurs. Thus, a low resistance state is achieved. Moreover, in order to achieve a resistive semiconductor layer and ohmic contact, and suppress the formation of a Schottky barrier, an ohmic contact layer is formed on the resistive diode. The present invention enables each memory cell to read information without misreading said information, even at a low readout voltage, and reduces the driving power required for a memory structure, such that a high-capacity and high-density memory is produced, and complexity and high costs of manufacturing processes may be avoided.
