Titanium-tungsten nanocrystals embedded in a SiO(2)/Al(2)O(3) gate dielectric stack for low-voltage operation in non-volatile memory

Titanium-tungsten nanocrystals (NCs) were fabricated by a self-assembly rapid thermal annealing (RTA) process. Well isolated Ti(0.46)W(0.54) NCs were embedded in the gate dielectric stack of SiO(2)/Al(2)O(3). A metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) capacitor was fabricated to investigate its application i...

description Titanium-tungsten nanocrystals (NCs) were fabricated by a self-assembly rapid thermal annealing (RTA) process. Well isolated Ti(0.46)W(0.54) NCs were embedded in the gate dielectric stack of SiO(2)/Al(2)O(3). A metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) capacitor was fabricated to investigate its application in a non-volatile memory (NVM) device. It demonstrated a large memory window of 6.2 V in terms of flat-band voltage (V(FB)) shift under a dual-directional sweeping gate voltage of - 10 to 10 V. A 1.1 V V(FB) shift under a low dual-directional sweeping gate voltage of - 4 to 4 V was also observed. The retention characteristic of this MOS capacitor was demonstrated by a 0.5 V memory window after 10(4) s of elapsed time at room temperature. The endurance characteristic was demonstrated by a program/erase cycling test.
