In recent years, the semiconductor memory industry has seen an ever-increasing demand for nonvolatile memory (NVM), which is fueled by portable consumer electronic applications like the mobile phone and MP3 player. FLASH memory has been the most widely used nonvolatile memories in these systems, and has successfully kept up with CMOS scaling for many generations. However, as FLASH memory faces major scaling challenges beyond 22nm, non-charge-based nonvolatile memories are widely researched as candidates to replace FLASH. Titanium oxide (TiOx) nonvolatile memory device is considered to be a promising choice due to its controllable nonvolatile memory switching, good scalability, compatibility with CMOS processing and potential for 3D stacking. However, several major issues need to be overcome before TiOx NVM device can be adopted in manufacturing.

520 $a In recent years, the semiconductor memory industry has seen an ever-increasing demand for nonvolatile memory (NVM), which is fueled by portable consumer electronic applications like the mobile phone and MP3 player. FLASH memory has been the most widely used nonvolatile memories in these systems, and has successfully kept up with CMOS scaling for many generations. However, as FLASH memory faces major scaling challenges beyond 22nm, non-charge-based nonvolatile memories are widely researched as candidates to replace FLASH. Titanium oxide (TiOx) nonvolatile memory device is considered to be a promising choice due to its controllable nonvolatile memory switching, good scalability, compatibility with CMOS processing and potential for 3D stacking. However, several major issues need to be overcome before TiOx NVM device can be adopted in manufacturing.
520 $a First, there exists a highly undesirable high-voltage stress initiation process (FORMING) before the device can switch between high and low resistance states repeatedly. By analyzing the conductive behaviors of the memory device before and after FORMING, we propose that FORMING involves breaking down an interfacial layer between its Pt electrode and the TiOx thin film, and that FORMING is not needed if the Pt-TiOx interface can be kept clean during fabrication.
520 $a An in-situ fabrication process is developed for cross-point TiOx NVM device, which enables in-situ deposition of the critical layers of the memory device and thus achieves clean interfaces between Pt electrodes and TiOx film. Testing results show that FORMING is indeed eliminated for memory devices made with the in-situ fabrication process. It verifies the significance of in-situ deposition without vacuum break in the fabrication of TiOx NVM devices.
520 $a Switching parameters statistics of TiOx NVM devices are studied and compared for unipolar and bipolar switching modes. RESET mechanisms are found to be different for the two switching modes: unipolar switching can be explained by thermal dissolution model, and bipolar switching by local redox reaction model.
520 $a Since it is generally agreed that the memory switching of TiOx NVM devices is based on conductive filaments, reusability of these conductive filaments becomes an intriguing issue to determine the memory device's endurance. A 1X3 cross-point test structure is built to investigate whether conductive filaments can be reused after RESET. It is found that the conductive filament is destroyed during unipolar switching, while can be reused during bipolar switching. The result is a good indication that bipolar switching should have better endurance than unipolar switching.
520 $a Finally a novel application of the two-terminal resistive switching NVM devices is demonstrated. To reduce SRAM leakage power, we propose a nonvolatile SRAM cell with two back-up NVM devices. This novel cell offers nonvolatile storage, thus allowing selected blocks of SRAM to be powered down during operation. There is no area penalty in this approach. Only a slight performance penalty is expected.
