제목 Four-level memory characteristics of Nonvolatile Memory-cell Embedded with Fe Nanocrystals Surrounded with FeO and Fe2O3 Tunneling Barrier
초록 We investigated that memory characteristics of nonvolatile memory-cell embedded with Fe nanocrystals surrounded with FeO and Fe2O3 tunneling barrier were depended on Fe nanocrystals size and distribution surrounded with iron oxide (FeO and Fe2O3) tunneling barrier. The memory-cell was fabricated with the device structure of Al / Alq3 (Aluminum tris (8-hydroxyquinoline)) / Fe nanocrystals surrounded with iron oxide / Alq3 / Al. The memory-cell showed nonvolatile memory characteristics such as memory margin of ~7.44 x 102 and retention time more than 105 sec. In particular, the memory-cells embedded with Fe nanocrystals showed four-levels of Ion, Iint1, Iinter2 and Ioff state. In this study, we will present the dependence of nonvolatile memory characteristics on evaporation rate of Fe and O2-plasma process time for the formation of the iron oxide. In addition, we demonstrate a current conduction mechanism of nonvolatile memory-cells embedded with Fe nanocrystals.
