摘要:
An OxRAM resistive memory cell includes a lower electrode, an upper electrode, and an active layer which extends between the lower electrode and the upper electrode. The active layer includes a layer of a first electrically insulating oxide, wherein an electrically conductive filament can be formed, then subsequently broken and reformed several times successively. The upper electrode includes a reservoir layer, capable of receiving oxygen, which includes an upper part made of a metal and a lower part made of a second oxide, the second oxide being an oxide of the metal and including a proportion of oxygen such that the second oxide is electrically conductive.
摘要:
A resistive memory device including at least one first electrode based on a first metal and a second electrode based on a second metal, and a memory element in the form of a metal filament based on a third metal and inserted between the first and second electrodes, the memory element having a filament cross-section strictly smaller than the electrode cross-sections, wherein the third metal has a chemical composition, different from those of the first and second metals giving it an etching speed greater than those of the first and second metals, preferably such that the selectivity at the etching is greater than or equal to 3:1, vis-á-vis the first and second metals. A method for manufacturing such a device is also disclosed.

摘要:
A method for producing a resistive memory cell from a stack of layers having a metal-oxide layer interleaved between first and second electrodes includes forming, within one from among the first and second electrodes, an interlayer material-based electrode interlayer having a selectivity to etching greater than or equal to 2:1 relative to materials of the electrodes. During an etching of the stack, overetching is performed configured to laterally consume, in a horizontal direction, the interlayer material such that the electrode interlayer has a lateral recess greater than or equal to 10 nm.
摘要:
A method for capillary self-assembly of a plate and a carrier, including: forming an etching mask on a region of a substrate; reactive-ion etching the substrate, the etching using a series of cycles each including isotropic etching followed by surface passivation, wherein a duration of the isotropic etching for each cycle increases from one cycle to another, a ratio between durations of the passivation and etching of each cycle is lower than a ratio for carrying out a vertical anisotropic etching to form a carrier having an upper surface defined by the region and side walls defining an acute angle with the upper surface; removing the etching mask; placing a droplet on the upper surface of the carrier; and placing the plate on the droplet.
