Description

Nonvolatile ferroelectric memory and preparation method thereof and read/write operation method
Technical field
The invention belongs to FERROELECTRICS MEMORIES TECHNOLOGY field, it is specifically related to a kind of novel Nonvolatile ferroelectric memory, particularly relates to based on ferroelectric thin-flim materials surface etch memory element and manufacture left and right electrode in the face connecting memory element in ferroelectric cell gap and carry out reading preparation method and the read/write operation method of high density ferroelectric memory and this ferroelectric memory in the face of write operation.
Background technology
Ferroelectric Random Access Memory FRAM (FerroelectricRandomAccessMemory) utilizes ferroelectric domain (or being called " electricdomain ") to keep two kinds of different polarization orientations to store the nonvolatile memory (Non-volatileMemory) of data as logical message (" 0 " or " 1 ") under positive and negative electric field action, and it can also be called " ferroelectric memory ".
The storage medium layer of ferroelectric memory is the ferroelectric thin film layer of the ferroelectric domain with can reverse (or being called " upset "), and at present, the prestissimo of the domain reversal can measured in laboratory can reach 0.2ns, and actually it can also be faster. Normally, the speed reversal of electricdomain determines the access time of memorizer, and the coercive voltage of domain reversal determines the read-write voltage of device, and it almost can reduce in equal proportion along with the reduction of film thickness. Therefore, ferroelectric memory has that reading and writing data speed is fast, driving voltage is low and memory density advantages of higher, obtains in recent years and pays close attention to widely and develop faster.
At present, ferroelectric memory can be divided mainly into by groundwork or operator scheme: the big class of FeFET two of the destructive FRAM reading (DRO) and non-Destructive readout (NDRO). Destructive (DRO) ferroelectric memory that reads is the storage electrostatic capacitor replacing routine as dielectric layer with ferroelectric capacitor (using the electric capacity that ferroelectric thin film layer is formed), and utilizes its polarization reversal to realize write and the reading of data. Up to now, on market, all ferroelectric memorys of application are all adopt this mode of operation, wherein with 1 transistor T and ferroelectric capacitor C(and 1T1C) build memory element, and using this 1T1C memory element as circuit design, in read operation process, by the reference capacitance connected with 1T1C memory element carries out voltage reading, the method adopting charge integration, fetches whether the electricdomain judging ferroelectric thin film layer reverses, thus the logical message in recognition memory cell.This ferroelectric memory is in read operation, and voltage reading can cause the domain reversal of ferroelectric thin film layer, and therefore, its shortcoming is information reading is destructive, and poor reliability needs again to write back original logical message state after read operation. It addition, along with the raising of device integration density, the area of the ferroelectric capacitor C of memory element constantly reduces, and reading electric charge is that the area to ferroelectric capacitor C is directly proportional, and therefore can read electric charge also fewer and feweri; When device memory cell size is less than 130nm, stored logical message in current reading circuit basic None-identified memory element, seriously hinder ferroelectric memory and develop to high density direction.
Non-Destructive readout (NDRO) ferroelectric memory is then utilize ferroelectric thin film layer to replace the gate dielectric layer of conventional MOSFET and constitute the ferro-electric field effect transistor (FeFET) of MFS structure. Leakage current I can be changed by the control of polarised directiondsSize, gap can reach several order of magnitude, and storage information can realize non-demolition under only small voltage and read. It has the features such as High Density Integration, high read or write speed, non-demolition reading and low-power consumption, but owing to the logical message of this device keeps poor performance, generally can only achieve a couple of days, and storage market generally requires to be not less than 10 years. Therefore this structure is at present also in the laboratory research stage, fails practice in memory product.
Therefore, Current commercialization application destructive reads (DRO) ferroelectric memory mainly so that ferroelectric capacitor to be read in charge integration mode, as summarized above, its shortcoming with destructive reading, need after reading to re-write data, thus along with the operation of substantial amounts of erasing and rewriting, causing that the reliability of device reduces, have impact on data reading speed; Further, it is scaled that this reading principle limits ferroelectric capacitor C, and memory density is low, for instance, the maximum only 8MB of ferroelectric memory of current commercial applications.
Adopt the domain wall that formed of ferroelectric domain of two kinds of different orientations and then produce domain wall electric current and can also read the logical message of stored ferrum electricity electricdomain. Thin film micro-zone is applied electric field by the commonly used nanometer pinpoint to atomic force microscope in the world at present, thus changing thin film local electric domain orientation thus forming conduction domain wall. This atomic force needle point technology cannot be compatible with current semiconductor technology, namely cannot realize large-scale production; It addition, read current generally only has pA-nA magnitude, namely electric current is too weak, it is impossible to is stored by high speed readout circuit (ns magnitude) and is identified. Read-write memory cell structure in this technology employing face, completely compatible with semiconductor technology; Additionally read domain wall current signal and can reach 100nA-10 �� A, it is possible to identified by the reading circuit of current high-speed memory.

The electricdomain of ferroelectric storage cell 305 can be produced impact by electric field E1, electric field E1 is when with the electric field component in the polarised direction opposite direction of the electricdomain of ferroelectric storage cell 305 more than the coercive voltage making this electricdomain that upset to occur, and the polarised direction that the electricdomain generation reversion of this unit forms the electricdomain 3053 shown in electricdomain 3053a(electricdomain 3053a and Fig. 1 is essentially identical).
The electricdomain of ferroelectric thin film layer 303 is not substantially affected by electric field E1 impact (or it under-effected is made the raw reversion of its electricdomain by electric field E1), and electricdomain is not reversed, and is correspondingly formed the electricdomain 3031 as shown in Fig. 3 (a), namely electricdomain 3031 is the same reverses. The polarised direction of electricdomain 3053a is basic completely contrary with the polarised direction of electricdomain 3031, therefore, boundary's wall between electricdomain 3031 and electricdomain 3053a or interface, thus charged domain wall or domain boundary 3054 can be produced, but the conductive channel of domain wall 3054 correspondence likely can turn off close to the local of substrate, so that conductive channel turns off and affects the read current in readout. It is therefore preferred that the thickness of ferroelectric thin film layer 303 should much larger than the width (d) of ferroelectric storage cell, substrate 301 can be the dielectric base that various insulant is formed. In embodiments of the present invention, form domain wall 3054 after one writing operation and be through ferroelectric storage cell 305, but can not the upper and lower surface of through ferroelectric thin film layer 303, thus turning off domain wall passage and affecting the read current of readout; The diagram shape that the concrete shape of domain wall 3054 is not also limited by the embodiment of the present invention limits, for instance, two domain walls 3054 can be formed generally cylindrical.
Wherein, owing to electricdomain 3053a utilizes electric field E1 realizing upset with the electric field component in the polarised direction opposite direction of electricdomain 3031, therefore, when the width (d) of ferroelectric storage cell, coercive voltage are known, it is possible to calculate the most small letter voltage V forming electricdomain 3053awrite1��
Fig. 3 (b) show reading " 1 " operating process and the operating principle schematic diagram of the ferroelectric memory of embodiment illustrated in fig. 1.
In this embodiment, read operation principle is totally different from the read operation principle of traditional ferroelectric memory, and wherein, when read operation, substrate 301 does not need offset signal, and it can be unsettled, read signal VreadBe be biased in read-write electrode between, below be biased in read-write electrode part 3071, read-write electrode part 3073 illustrate for example.Read voltage should be less than writing voltage, to prevent write operation by mistake in reading process.
As shown in Figure 3 (b), in reading " 1 " operating process, biasing read signal V between read-write electrode part 3071, read-write electrode part 3073readRead-write electrode part 3073 biases negative sense, read-write electrode part 3071 biases forward, thus reading and writing the electric field E3(E3 forming direction as shown in the figure between electrode part 3073 and read-write electrode part 3071 less than coercive field Ec), owing to electric field E3 is absent from the electric field component that makes electricdomain 3053a reverse, electricdomain 3053a remains unchanged completely, thus the domain wall conductive channel formed is non-switched off, now read-write electrode part 3073 produces read current, read current I with read-write electrode part 3071readFor On state (i.e. ON state), expression reads logical message " 1 ".
It is to be appreciated that read signal VreadRead voltage be necessarily less than write signal Vwrite1Write voltage, so, it is to avoid when read operation produce " mistake " write operation.
As read signal VreadAfter removing, owing in above read operation process, the electricdomain of ferroelectric storage cell does not change, therefore, read signal VreadAfter removing, the electricdomain of ferroelectric storage cell does not also change. Domain wall passage stable existence, until when writing a write operation.
Further, at read current signal IreadAfter, the read voltage signal V between read-write electrode part 3073 and read-write electrode part 3071readRemoving, electric field E3 disappears, and now, the domain wall passage between electricdomain 3053a and electricdomain 3031 is not destroyed. Therefore, ferroelectric memory 30 stored logical message " 1 " before a read operation does not change after read operation, it is achieved that non-destructive reads.
As shown in Figure 3 (c), in writing " 0 " operating process, constitute read-write electrode to upper offset write signal V in read-write electrode part 3073 and read-write electrode part 3071write2, write signal Vwrite2With write signal Vwrite1In opposite direction, wherein read-write electrode part 3073 biases forward, read-write electrode part 3071 biases negative sense, thus they form the electric field E2 in directions substantially as shown in Figure 3 (c). Existence due to ferroelectric storage cell 305, electricdomain corresponding to ferroelectric storage cell 305 can be produced impact by electric field E2, namely such as electricdomain 3053a shown in Fig. 3 (a) can be produced impact, electric field E2 is when with the electric field component in the polarised direction opposite direction of electricdomain 3053a more than the coercive voltage making this electricdomain that upset to occur, this electricdomain 3053a reverses, it is returned to original or initial polarised direction, unified formation electricdomain 3031. Now, logical message is written as " 0 ".
Similarly, based on ferroelectric storage cell 305 at write signal Vwrite2Electric-field intensity distribution under effect is it can be seen that Vwrite2To write voltage more big, make electricdomain 3053a reply the degree of depth of reversion more deep. Therefore, it can the voltage swing by controlling write signal, make electricdomain 3053a full recovery be reversed to electricdomain 3031; Example as shown in Figure 3 (c), has a certain size the write signal V writing voltagewrite2Under effect, the electricdomain 3053a of corresponding ferroelectric storage cell is rotarily formed electricdomain 3051 completely, and domain wall 3054 disappears.
Wherein, write signal Vwrite1And Vwrite2Concrete signal form is not restrictive, for instance it can be the voltage pulse signal etc. of certain frequency.

As shown in Fig. 3 (d), in reading " 0 " operating process, between read electrode part 3071, read electrode part 3073, bias read signal VreadForming the electric field E3 in direction as shown in the figure, owing to electric field E3 is less than the coercive field Ec of ferroelectric storage cell, the electricdomain 3051 of ferroelectric storage cell is reversed, thus not forming domain wall conductive channel, now read-write electrode part 3073 does not produce read current (I with read-write electrode part 3071read=0), read current IreadFor Off state (i.e. OFF state), expression reads logical message " 0 ".

Fig. 9 show the one writing of the ferroelectric memory of embodiment illustrated in fig. 8 and reads " 1 " and and write " 0 " and read " 0 ".
In this embodiment, illustrate with electricdomain 4051 place polarised direction storage logical message " 0 " of ferroelectric storage cell 305 for signal. As shown in Fig. 9 (a), in one writing operating process, biasing write signal V between the read-write electrode part 4073 and read-write electrode part 4071 of read-write electrode layer 307write1, namely constitute read-write electrode to upper offset write signal V in read-write electrode part 4073 and read-write electrode part 4071write1, the direction of write signal biases negative sense for read-write electrode part 4073, read-write electrode part 4071 biases forward, thus they form the substantially electric field E1 in direction as shown in Fig. 3 (a). The electricdomain of ferroelectric storage cell 405 can be produced impact by electric field E1, electric field E1 is when with the electric field component in the polarised direction opposite direction of the electricdomain of ferroelectric storage cell 405 more than the coercive voltage making this electricdomain that upset to occur, and the polarised direction that the electricdomain generation reversion of this unit forms the electricdomain 4053 shown in electricdomain 4053a(electricdomain 4053a and Fig. 1 is essentially identical).
The electricdomain of ferroelectric thin film layer 403 is not substantially affected by electric field E1 impact (or it under-effected is made the raw reversion of its electricdomain by electric field E1), and electricdomain is not reversed, namely electricdomain 4031 is the same reverses. The polarised direction of electricdomain 4053a is basic completely contrary with the polarised direction of electricdomain 4031, therefore, boundary's wall between electricdomain 4031 and electricdomain 4053a or interface, thus charged domain wall or domain boundary 4054 can be produced, but the conductive channel of domain wall 4054 correspondence likely can turn off close to the local of substrate, so that conductive channel turns off and affects the read current in readout. It is therefore preferred that the thickness of ferroelectric thin film layer 403 should much larger than the width (d) of ferroelectric storage cell, substrate 401 can be the dielectric base that various insulant is formed. In embodiments of the present invention, forming domain wall 3054 and be through ferroelectric storage cell 305 after one writing operation, the diagram shape that the concrete shape of domain wall 3054 is not also limited by the embodiment of the present invention limits, for instance, two domain walls 3054 can be formed generally cylindrical.
Wherein, owing to electricdomain 4053a utilizes electric field E1 realizing upset with the electric field component in the polarised direction opposite direction of electricdomain 4031, therefore, when the width (d) of ferroelectric storage cell, coercive voltage are known, it is possible to calculate the most small letter voltage V forming electricdomain 4053awrite1��
Fig. 9 (b) show reading " 1 " operating process and the operating principle schematic diagram of the ferroelectric memory of embodiment illustrated in fig. 1.
In this embodiment, read operation principle is totally different from the read operation principle of traditional ferroelectric memory, and wherein, when read operation, substrate 401 does not need offset signal, and it can be unsettled, read signal VreadBe be biased in read-write electrode 407 between, below be biased in read-write electrode part 4071 or read-write electrode part 3073 and read electrode part 4075 illustrate for example.
As shown in Figure 9 (b), in reading " 1 " operating process, read and write biasing read signal V between electrode part 4071 or read-write electrode part 4073 and read electrode part 4075read, read electrode part 4075 biases negative sense, read-write electrode part 4071 biases forward or read electrode part 4073 biases negative sense, read-write electrode part 4075 biases forward. thus reading and writing the electric field E4(E4 forming direction as shown in the figure between electrode part 4071 and read electrode part 4075 or read-write electrode part 4073 and read electrode part 4075 more than coercive field Ec), owing to electric field E4 is absent from the electric field component that makes electricdomain 4053a reverse, electricdomain 3053a remains unchanged completely, thus the domain wall conductive channel not formed between read-write electrode part 4071 and read electrode part 4075 or read-write electrode part 4073 and read electrode part 4075, now do not produce read current between read-write electrode part 4071 and read electrode part 4075 or read-write electrode part 4073 and read electrode part 4075, read current Iread=0, now, the domain wall conductive channel between ferroelectric storage cell 405 and ferroelectric thin film layer 403 is On state (i.e. ON state), and corresponding ferroelectric storage cell represents reading logical message " 1 ". It will be understood by the skilled person that the read voltage signal using any one direction, all can realize the reading " 1 " of the ferroelectric memory to the present invention and read " 0 " operating process.
It is to be appreciated that read signal VreadIt is necessarily less than write signal V unlike read voltage shown in Fig. 3 (b)write1Write voltage, this read-out voltage is not write voltage influence completely, thus without producing by mistake write operation.
As read signal VreadAfter removing, between read-write electrode part 4071 and read electrode part 4075 or read-write electrode part 4073 and read electrode part 4075, the electricdomain of ferroelectric storage cell is reversed, therefore, in read operation process, the electricdomain of ferroelectric storage cell does not change, read signal VreadAfter removing, the electricdomain of ferroelectric storage cell does not also change. Ferroelectric memory 30 stored logical message " 1 " before a read operation does not change after read operation, it is achieved that non-destructive reads.
As shown in Figure 9 (c), in writing " 0 " operating process, constitute read-write electrode to upper offset write signal V in read-write electrode part 4073 and read-write electrode part 4071write2, write signal Vwrite2With write signal Vwrite1In opposite direction, wherein read-write electrode part 4073 biases forward, read-write electrode part 4071 biases negative sense, thus they form the electric field E2 in directions substantially as shown in Figure 9 (c). Existence due to ferroelectric storage cell 405, electricdomain corresponding to ferroelectric storage cell 405 will not be produced impact by electric field E2, namely such as electricdomain 4053a shown in Fig. 9 (a) can be produced impact, electric field E2 is when with the electric field component in the polarised direction opposite direction of electricdomain 4053a more than the coercive voltage making this electricdomain that upset to occur, this electricdomain 4053a reverses, it is returned to original or initial polarised direction, unified formation electricdomain 4051. Now, logical message is written as " 0 ".
Similarly, based on ferroelectric storage cell 405 at write signal Vwrite2Electric-field intensity distribution under effect is it can be seen that Vwrite2To write voltage more big, make electricdomain 4053a reply the degree of depth of reversion more deep. Therefore, it can the voltage swing by controlling write signal, make electricdomain 4053a full recovery be reversed to electricdomain 4031; Example as shown in Figure 9 (c), has a certain size the write signal V writing voltagewrite2Under effect, the electricdomain 4053a of corresponding ferroelectric storage cell is rotarily formed electricdomain 4051 completely, and domain wall 4054 disappears.
Fig. 9 (d) show reading " 0 " operating process and the operating principle schematic diagram of the ferroelectric memory of embodiment illustrated in fig. 1.
As shown in Fig. 9 (d), in reading " 0 " operating process, read and write biasing read signal V between electrode part 4071 or read-write electrode part 4073 and read electrode part 4075read, read electrode part 4075 biases negative sense, read-write electrode part 4071 biases forward or read electrode part 4073 biases negative sense, read-write electrode part 4075 biases forward. Read signal V is biased between read electrode part 4071, read electrode part 4073read, forming the electric field E4 in direction as shown in the figure, the electricdomain 4051 of ferroelectric storage cell is reversed, and forms electricdomain 4053b, thus forming domain wall conductive channel, now read-write electrode part 4071 or read-write electrode part 4073 and read electrode part 4075 produce read current Iread, now, the domain wall conductive channel between ferroelectric storage cell 405 and ferroelectric thin film layer 403 is Off state (i.e. OFF state), represents and reads logical message " 0 ".
Wherein, write signal Vwrite1And Vwrite2With VreadConcrete signal form is not restrictive, for instance it can be the voltage pulse signal etc. of certain frequency.
Therefore, above read operation process, it is totally different from the electric charge reading method of the ferroelectric memory of traditional capacitance structure, embodiments herein achieves electric current and reads the mode of logical signal. Figure 10 and Figure 11 is with LiNbO3Single-crystal iron electric material is nanodevice structural and the concrete data of electrical measurement of the another embodiment of the present invention made by example.
Figure 10 show the LiNbO3 monocrystal material surface of [100] oriented cuts and produces the source-drain electrode (in face the first and second read-write electrodes) of nanometer storing unit and the stereoscan photograph of gate electrode (i.e. third reading electrode) structure. When gate electrode ground connection, between source and drain, domain reversal stupid voltage of spoiling can be reduced to 5.8V from 13V, is at this moment that +/-10V voltage can realize positive and negative electricdomain write between source and drain, is namely stored in logical one/" 0 " operation. Drawing of information can be passed through to read at the endogenous gate voltage of 0-5.8V. Particularly as follows: after+10V source-drain voltage writes logical one information, be in ON state at the endogenous gate voltage read current of 0-5.8V; Otherwise, after-10V source-drain voltage writes logical zero information, the endogenous gate voltage read current of 0-5.8V is in OFF state. Figure 11 be the ferroelectric nano memory element shown in Figure 10 source-drain electrode (in face left and right electrode) between electric current and domain reversal coercive voltage with the change of gate voltage Vg.
Figure 12 show the ferroelectric storage cell top plan view structural representation of ferroelectric memory, and Figure 12 (a) is general memory cell structural representation, but is not limited to rectangle, it is possible to for other shapes multiple such as circular, oval.
