    摘要: A semiconductor device is disclosed. The semiconductor device includes a semiconductor substrate, and a heater element on the semiconductor substrate, the heater element configured to generate heat in response to a current flowing therethrough. The semiconductor device also includes a conductor material having a programmable conductivity, and an insulator layer between the heater element and the conductor material, where the conductor material is configured to be programmed by applying one or more voltage differences to one or more of the heater element and the conductor material, and where a capacitance between the conductor material and the heater element is configured to be controlled by the voltage differences such that the capacitance is lower while the conductor material is being programmed than while the conductor material is not being programmed.

    摘要: Some embodiments relate to an embedded memory device with vertically stacked source, drain and gate connections. The semiconductor memory device includes a substrate and a pillar of channel material extending in a first direction. A bit line is disposed over the pillar of channel material and is coupled to the pillar of channel material, and extends in a second direction that is perpendicular to the first direction. Word lines are on opposite sides of the pillar of channel material and extend in a third direction. The third direction is perpendicular to the second direction. A dielectric layer separates the word lines from the pillar of channel material. Source lines extend in the third direction over the substrate, directly beneath the word lines. Variable resistance memory layers are between the source lines and an outer sidewall of the dielectric layer, laterally surrounding the sidewalls of the pillar of channel material.

    摘要: A memory device having a 3D structure provides MFMIS-FET memory cells with a high chip area density. The memory device includes a stack of memory cell layers interleaved with insulating layers. Channel vias penetrate through the stack. Channels of the memory cells are disposed in the channel vias. MFM portions of memory cells are sandwiched between the insulating layers in areas lateral to the channel vias. The MFM portions may be radially distributed from the channel vias and include a floating gate, a ferroelectric layer, and a gate electrode. The gate electrodes associated with a plurality of MFM structures may be united into a word line gate. The ferroelectric layer may wrap around the word line gate, whereby the ferroelectric layer is disposed above and below the word line gate as well as between the word line gate and each of the floating gates.
