Definitions
- the invention relates to an integrated read-only memory, a method for operating such a read-only memory and a manufacturing method for an integrated read-only memory.
- Read-only memories are characterized by the fact that the memory content is retained even when the operating voltage is switched off. Such read-only memories are in particular also designed to be programmable (PROM). Programmable components for this include fuses, diodes or special MOSFETs that have an additional so-called floating gate. This is charged during programming and thereby shifts the threshold voltage of the MOSFET. Since the floating gate is insulated with Si0 2 all around, the charge retention can be guaranteed for about ten years.
- EPROM read-only memory variants that can be erased
- EEPROM electrically erasable programmable read-only memory
- the memory content can be erased with ultraviolet light, with EEPROMs this is done
- Flash memories represent a special embodiment of erasable read-only memories. These are electrically erasable, but not the individual memory cells can be deleted separately, but only a whole block on the
- the deletion is carried out by means of a single deletion pulse lasting a few seconds.
- the advantage here is that the memory chip for deletion does not have to be removed and placed in a deletion device.
- Integrated memories are usually built in the form of fields. Individual storage elements are selected via so-called selection transistors so that their content can be read out. Word lines are used to
- the word lines are connected to the control electrodes of selection transistors.
- the memory content is read out via bit lines. Additional lines for accessing the are usually required to write to or configure memory cells
- An electronically configurable connection is known from [1], which has a molecular monolayer between two lithographically produced contacts.
- the contacts are designed as Al-Ti electrodes.
- Rotaxane molecules are used as the molecular layer.
- connection can be understood as a switch which can have an open (poorer conductivity) and a closed state (better conductivity).
- the open state allows current flow at negative voltage due to a resonance tunnel effect in the rotaxane electrode transition.
- the transition of the switch from the open to the closed state by applying a sufficient positive voltage is irreversible, so that a switch once closed can no longer assume an open state.
- connection is disclosed for use in logic circuits.
- Another electronically configurable switch is known from [2]: a polycrystalline silicon electrode and a metal electrode are used as electrodes. A molecular monolayer between the electrodes contains [2] catenanes.
- Configuration takes place along a hysteresis loop. Depending on the configuration voltage previously applied, a certain switching behavior can be observed when a predetermined reading voltage is applied.
- a molecular switch is shown in [3]. Here, too, the electron transport is controlled over molecular distances.
- a bipyridinium compound is used as the molecular layer
- a metal-insulator-metal arrangement is proposed in [5].
- An insulator oxide such as SrZr0 3 or SrTi0 3 or Ca 2 Nb 2 0 7, is applied as an epitaxial or polycrystalline film to a SrRu0 3 film or a Pt film as the electrode.
- the top electrode made of Au or Pt is applied to the insulator via a Ti layer.
- Read access to the switching arrangement takes place at SrZr0 3 as an insulator doped with 0.2 Cr in a voltage range from -0.5 volts to +0.5 volts.
- the current / voltage relationship is approximately linear in this read voltage range.
- the current flow over this voltage range depends on the previous configuration of the isolator.
- the isolator is configured by applying voltages of + 1 volt or - 1 volt over a period of 2 ms. When the negative configuration voltage is applied, the insulator tilts into its low-resistance state and has a resistance characteristic curve that differs significantly from the resistance characteristic after application of the positive configuration voltage.
- the isolator tilts configuration voltage to its high-resistance state.
- the configuration is reversible.
- the change in the resistance characteristics caused by configuration voltage pulses is caused by a change between the amorphous and the crystalline insulator state.
- [4] shows chalcogenide alloys that are configured by controlled heating and cooling. By applying a voltage pulse, an alternation between amorphous and crystalline state and vice versa is brought about.
- [6] used as a layer whose conductivity can be changed due to a change between the crystalline and amorphous state is a complex of 3-nitrobenzal malonitrile and 1,4-
- [7] discloses an electrically programmable read only memory that has voltage programmable structures that are fabricated to provide predictable and selectable programming voltages.
- the invention is based on the problem of specifying an integrated read-only memory which has a high integration density and which can be programmed in a few steps.
- the invention is based on the object of specifying a method for producing such an integrated read-only memory.
- the tasks are performed by the integrated read-only memory according to the features of claim 1, the operating method according to the features of claim 24 and the
- the read-only memory according to the invention contains selection transistors, each with a drain connection and an electrode for supplying a voltage or a current.
- a layer is provided between the drain connections and the electrode. The electrical resistance of the layer can be changed by the action of a configuration voltage or a configuration current.
- the use of a layer is therefore proposed, the electrical resistance or the electrical conductivity of which can be changed by electrical configuration.
- the electrical property "resistance” or “conductivity” of the layer is set, so that the setting can be queried in a reading step.
- switching elements of the integrated read-only memory formed in this way need only have two connections, namely the electrode connection and the connection to the drain of the respective selection transistor.
- the intermediate layer used as a storage element can be configured by suitable voltage or current application - also used as a synonym for "described” or "programmed” - and its content - represented by a certain layer state - can be read out.
- the configuration connection and read connection no longer have to be provided separately from one another.
- the integration density can be increased considerably by this measure. Since each memory cell can be controlled individually, control can take place at high speeds. In addition, the selection of suitable material systems enables the use of low operating voltages, at least lower operating voltages than in conventional flash memory technologies.
- the selection transistor of a memory cell When the selection transistor of a memory cell is controlled via a gate, the content is read out via a bit line connected to the source.
- the current flow from the electrode through the electrically switchable layer and
- the drain-source path of the selection transistor to the bit line is a measure of the content of the memory cell.
- the current flow is significantly influenced by the preset state of the layer, its resistance characteristics.
- the programming of such a memory cell can be done by
- Electrode and bit line take place, or else by variation in the gate control of the selection transistor when the voltage is applied to the electrode. if the
- the layer is preferably designed as a common layer for connecting the drain connections, and in particular all drain connections, to the electrode.
- a single electrically switchable layer is provided, to which several or even all drain connections of selection transistors are connected, that is to say electrically connected to the latter.
- the common properties of the common layer can be changed locally and thus programmed. Individual delimitable local areas of the layer can thus have different conductivity. Such a region then forms a memory cell to which a selection transistor is connected.
- the electrode is preferably formed as a common electrode over this layer.
- the resistance of the layer can preferably be switched.
- the resistance of the layer can preferably be switched between two resistance characteristics. It is assumed that the resistance in reading mode is not constant over a read voltage range that can be applied, but rather follows a characteristic curve. The characteristic curves assigned to the layer states should be easy to discriminate.
- the reading operation of the memory cell is characterized by a reading voltage applied to the layer or a reading current supplied to the layer within a defined voltage or current range.
- the configuration mode can have a configuration voltage or a configuration current preferably outside the voltage or current range provided for the reading mode.
- the integrated read-only memory is preferably designed as a flash memory.
- all the local memory areas of the electrically switchable layer can be set to the same state in terms of conductivity.
- the bit lines connected to the source connections of the selection transistors can be connected to a decoder circuit.
- the bit line can do this 1583
- Each gate connection of a selection transistor can be electrically connected to a word line.
- the word line in turn can be connected to a decoder circuit.
- the word line can in particular be accessible for an external connection.
- These embodiments serve for the selection of selection transistors in multiplex operation with the upstream of decoders determining the addresses.
- the selection transistors are preferably arranged in a field on the substrate.
- the selection transistors can have a planar structure in the substrate.
- the integration density of a memory cell is in a planar arrangement of the selection transistors
- the integration density of a memory cell is approximately 4 * F 2 , with F as the minimum structure size.
- the electrically switchable layer is preferably designed as a molecular layer and in particular as a monolayer.
- the layer can also contain catenanes.
- the statements in [2] with regard to the chemical composition of the layer, the electrode formation and connection and the operation of the layer are hereby disclosed as belonging to the invention.
- the layer can also contain a bispyridinium compound.
- the layer can also be designed as a dielectric, using an oxide portion.
- the layer may contain SrZr0 3 , or else (Ba.Sr) Ti0 3 or SrTi0 3 or Ca 2 Mb 2 0 7 or Ta0 5, optionally suitably doped, for example with Cr.
- (Ba.Sr) Ti0 3 or SrTi0 3 or Ca 2 Mb 2 0 7 or Ta0 5 optionally suitably doped, for example with Cr.
- the layer can also be designed as a polymer.
- the layer then preferably contains a 3-nitrobenzal malonitrile, 1,4 phenylenediamine complex.
- the layer can in particular also contain chalcogenide material.
- Electrode formation and connection as well as the operation of the layer are hereby disclosed as belonging to the invention.
- a field of selection transistors is first produced using CMOS-compatible technology. Drain contacts of the selection transistors are led to the surface of the arrangement before a layer is deposited over the selection transistors, the electrical resistance of which can be changed by the action of a configuration voltage or a configuration current. Finally, an electrode is placed over the layer.
- a highly integrated memory can thus also be produced in a simple manner.
- This layer can be deposited in only one manufacturing step, in particular in the case of a common layer for several or all memory cells.
- the selection transistors can be manufactured in a front-end process and the layer can be deposited in a back-end process.
- the backend process includes the last stages of production in semiconductor manufacturing understood, especially the manufacturing stages after building structures in the substrate.
- the integration of the switchable layer in the back-end process brings significant advantages, in particular for organic compounds, since the switchable layer is not exposed to the temperatures in the range of up to 1000 Celsius that are common in the front-end process. Furthermore, the use of an unstructured top electrode avoids possible damage to the electrically switchable layer by one of the structuring techniques.
- the selection of transistors can be built up planar in the substrate or vertically. Standard processes can be used for the planar alignment.
- Figure 1 shows a cross section through part of an integrated read-only memory according to a first embodiment of the invention using planar selection transistors
- FIG. 2 shows a cross section through part of an integrated read-only memory according to a first exemplary embodiment of the invention using vertical selection transistors; and 3 shows a perspective view with elements of a section of a read-only memory according to FIG.
- Fig.l shows a part of an integrated read-only memory according to a first embodiment of the invention in cross section.
- the read-only memory contains an n-channel MOSFET as the selection transistor 15.
- an N-drain region 11 and an N-source region 12 are created in a p-substrate by doping.
- a gate 5 is insulated by an oxide layer 9, with a polysilicon gate 8 and a tungsten layer 7 and a nitride layer 6 above it.
- Source connection 4 mainly made of polysilicon, and a drain connection 3, which is led upwards as a metal plug.
- Source connection 4 and drain connection 3 contact the source region 12 and the drain region 11 in the substrate 13.
- the source connection 4 is connected to a bit line 14.
- the drain connection 3 is in turn connected to an electrically switchable layer 2, for example a rotaxane molecular layer, which in turn is covered by an electrode 1.
- the arrangement according to FIG. 1 therefore shows only a section of a field of memory cells of a read-only memory, in particular only a labeled memory cell with a selection transistor 15 and an associated section - around the drain connection 3 - of the layer 2 as a memory element which is in this area is locally configurable.
- the resistance of layer 2 can be changed locally by the action of a voltage applied to electrode 1.
- the local electrical behavior of layer 2 can thus be set once or several times depending on the chemical composition of the layer material by means of voltage or current pulses.
- This electrically switchable layer in its entirety represents the actual memory elements, which are represented by local areas in the layer with different resistance characteristics.
- the drain connections 3 of a plurality of selection transistors are connected to this common layer 2 and thus a single layer which is local in its electrical
- the gate 5 is connected to a word line (not shown). To read the content of the depicted
- the gate 5 is activated via the word line.
- a predetermined reading voltage is present at the electrode.
- the memory content is tapped off on the bit line during gate control. If the rotaxane layer 2 is programmed as an open switch, the layer 2 will Read voltage, which causes a negative polarity in the layer, to a current flow that is detected on the bit line. However, if the rotaxane layer is programmed as a closed switch - ie if a positive voltage greater than 0.7 volts has already been applied to the electrode, the rotaxane layer 2 no longer allows current to flow due to its molecular state, which is also detected on the bit line ,
- the selection transistors are first created in standard CMOS processes. After preparation of the source and drain connections 4 and 3, the electrically switchable layer 2 is applied in the back-end process before this layer 2 is covered with the electrode 1.
- Figure 2 shows part of an integrated read-only memory according to a second embodiment of the invention in cross section.
- the selection transistors 15 are now arranged vertically in the substrate 13.
- N source region 12, a P region 16 and an N drain region 11 are arranged one above the other.
- Vertical gates 5 made of polysilicon are arranged on lateral vertical oxide layers 9 on both sides of the stack described above. Oxide spacers 10 are provided for isolation between the gates 5 of adjacent vertical selection transistors 15.
- the N-drain regions 11 are in turn connected to the electrically switchable layer 2 already described in more detail in connection with FIG. 1, on which in turn the electrode 1 is applied.
- the N source regions are in turn connected to bit lines 14 arranged below the selection transistors 15.
- the word lines connected to the gates 5 are again not shown.
- Layer 2 is also applied to the vertical transistor arrangements according to FIG. 2 in the back-end process.
- FIG. 3 shows a section of an integrated read-only memory according to FIG. 2, in the picture only with a single vertical selection transistor 15, in an exploded view.
- Layer 2 and electrode 1 are detonated explosively from the single selection transistor 15.
- bit lines 14 are insulated from one another by oxide spacers 10.
