Non-ohmic Devices

1.4K
In most substances, the current flow is proportional to the voltage applied to it. A simple relationship between the values of current, voltage, and resistance is known as Ohm's law. Nonohmic devices do not exhibit a linear relationship between voltage and current. One such device is the semiconducting circuit element known as a diode. A diode is a circuit device that allows current flow in only one direction.
Consider a simple circuit consisting of a battery, a diode, and a resistor. A...

Resistivity01:22

Resistivity

4.3K
When a voltage is applied to a conductor, an electrical field is generated, and charges in the conductor feel the force due to the electrical field. The current density that results depends on the electrical field and the properties of the material. In some materials, including metals at a given temperature, the current density is approximately proportional to the electrical field. In these cases, the current density can be modeled as:

MOS Capacitor

1.3K
A Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (MOS) capacitor is a fundamental structure used extensively in semiconductor device technology, particularly in the fabrication of integrated circuits and MOSFETs (metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors). The MOS capacitor consists of three layers: a metal gate, a dielectric oxide, and a semiconductor substrate.
The metal gate is typically made from highly conductive materials such as aluminum or polysilicon. Beneath the metal gate lies a thin layer of...

Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Nanotechnology
  • Data Storage

Background:

  • Probe-based storage memories offer potential solutions for mass storage challenges.
  • Conventional probe memories suffer from thermal diffusion, leading to data sizes larger than probe dimensions.
  • Eliminating thermal interference is crucial for achieving ultra-high density data storage.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose and computationally model a carbon-based resistive probe memory.
  • To predict the write, rewrite, and readout performances of this novel memory concept.
  • To demonstrate the feasibility of achieving data dimensions dominated by probe size, overcoming thermal effects.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a comprehensive computational model incorporating electro-thermal and mass concentration processes.
  • Simulation of write, rewrite, and readout operations for the carbon-based resistive probe memory.
  • Experimental validation of the computational model through threshold voltage measurements.

Main Results:

  • The carbon-based resistive probe memory forms data bits (sp2 filaments) underneath the probe tip, determined by probe dimension.
  • Achieved ultra-high density potential with low energy consumption and immunity to thermal cross-talk at 28 nm bit pitch.
  • Demonstrated bit rewrite capability to the pristine state at ~250 °C and detection via device reading contrast.
  • Identified readout cross-talk as a limiting factor for recording density, suggesting solutions like sharper tips or optical readout.

Conclusions:

  • Carbon-based resistive probe memory offers a viable path towards ultra-high density data storage by minimizing thermal diffusion.
  • The developed computational model accurately predicts device performance and guides experimental validation.
  • Further optimization, particularly in readout schemes, is needed to fully realize the potential of this technology for practical applications.
