摘要:

硫系化合物材料由于其在新型存储系统中的应用,在过去的十年中受到了极大的关注。最近,相变存储器实际上已经进入了生产的早期阶段。尽管这种材料的工业开发,控制开关机制的物理过程仍然存在争议。本文建立了一个完整的、自洽的、基于载流子加热的陷阱限制导电的非晶硫系材料输运模型。以前的模型在这里扩展到包括位置相关的载流子浓度和字段,始终由泊松方程。新模型的结果再现了实验的电特性及其对器件长度和温度的依赖关系。此外,该模型提供了一个健全的物理解释的开关现象,并能够给出一个估计的阈值条件的材料参数,一块信息的极大的技术兴趣。

英文摘要:

Chalcogenide materials have received great attention in the last decade owing to their application in new memory systems. Recently, phase-change memories have, in fact, reached the early stages of production. In spite of the industrial exploitation of such materials, the physical processes governing the switching mechanism are still debated. In this paper we work out a complete and consistent model for transport in amorphous chalcogenide materials based on trap-limited conduction accompanied by carrier heating. A previous model is here extended to include position-dependent carrier concentration and field, consistently linked by the Poisson equation. The results of the new model reproduce the experimental electrical characteristics and their dependences on the device length and temperature. Furthermore, the model provides a sound physical interpretation of the switching phenomenon and is able to give an estimate of the threshold condition in terms of the material parameters, a piece of information of great technological interest.
