Description

Phase transition storage
Technical field
The invention belongs to technical field of semiconductor memory, relate to a kind of storer, relate in particular to a kind of storer of can accelerating and read speed, increase and read the phase transition storage of allowance.
Background technology
The phase transition storage technology is based on Ovshinsky at late 1960s (Phys.Rev.Lett., 21,1450~1453,1968) beginning of the seventies (Appl.Phys.Lett., 18,254~257,1971) phase-change thin film of Ti Chuing can be applied to that the conception of phase change memory medium sets up, and is the memory device of a kind of low price, stable performance.Phase transition storage can be made on the silicon wafer substrate, its critical material is that the research focus of recordable phase-change thin film, heating electrode material, thermal insulation material and extraction electrode material also just launches around its device technology: the physical mechanism research of device comprises how reducing device material etc.The ultimate principle of phase transition storage is to utilize electric impulse signal to act on the device cell, make phase-change material between amorphous state and polycrystalline attitude, reversible transition take place, low-resistance when high resistant during by the resolution amorphous state and polycrystalline attitude can realize writing, wipe and read operation of information.
Phase transition storage owing to have reads at a high speed, high erasable number of times, non-volatile, advantages such as component size is little, strong motion low in energy consumption, anti-and radioresistance, is thought flash memories that most possible replacement is present by international semiconductor TIA and becomes following storer main product and become the device of commercial product at first.
The reading and writing of phase transition storage, wiping operation apply the voltage or the current pulse signal of different in width and height exactly on device cell: wipe operation (RESET), after phase-change material temperature in adding a weak point and strong pulse enable signal device cell is elevated to more than the temperature of fusion, through thereby cooling realization phase-change material polycrystalline attitude is to amorphous conversion fast, promptly one state is to the conversion of " 0 " attitude again; Write operation (SET), when apply one long and pulse enable signal phase-change material temperature medium tenacity is raised under the temperature of fusion, on the Tc after, and keep a period of time to impel nucleus growth, thus realize the conversion of amorphous state to the polycrystalline attitude, promptly " 0 " attitude is to the conversion of one state; Read operation behind the pulse signal that adds a little less than in the of, is read its state by the resistance value of measuring element unit.
The tradition phase transition storage structure as shown in Figure 3, traditional phase transition storage comprises some storage unit 301, DUMMY resistance 303, sense amplifier 304, read-write drive circuit 305, column selection circuit passband and code translator 306, line decoder 307; The bit line of described some storage unit 301 inserts described column selection circuit passband and code translator 306, and the word line of each storage unit 301 inserts described line decoder 307; Described column selection circuit passband is connected described read-write drive circuit 305, reaches sense amplifier 304 with code translator 306, described read-write drive circuit 305 connects described sense amplifier 304 by DUMMY resistance 303.Described each storage unit is made up of a phase-change memory cell 302 and a diode.Wherein, DUMMY resistance 303 is used to finish under read operation, and 302 resistance values of the phase-change memory cell in self-resistance and the array are compared; When the resistance of phase-change memory cell 302 is higher than DUMMY resistance 303, then difference sense amplifier 304 judges that phase change cells resistance 302 is " RESET " state, otherwise, when the resistance of phase-change memory cell 302 is lower than DUMMY resistance 303, sense amplifier 304 judges that phase change cells resistance 302 are " SET " state.
There are problems in the 1D1R storer of this kind traditional structure: first, because process deviation, and the distance of storage unit and driving circuit is unequal during chip layout, " RESET " of phase change cells, resistance value distribution under " SET " state is all wider, even the phenomenon that the resistance under the two states overlaps mutually can appear, cause the storage errors of data.Second, because read operation needs a pulse signal, phase transformation meeting after read operation repeatedly among the 1R1D is along with the accumulation of read pulse signal, resistance value constantly reduces, after the resistance value under " RESET " is less than DUMMY resistance, will free data read errors, if use higher read operation voltage, perhaps higher read operation electric current, this phenomenon will be more serious.The 3rd, because after RESET repeatedly and the SET operation, it is very complicated that the resistance value of phase-change memory cell can become, and corresponding change can not take place in DUMMY resistance usually, so difficult more with relatively can becoming of DUMMY resistance.
As known from the above, traditional phase transition storage exists following problem to be needed to solve: the first, and under the structure of traditional 1T1R or 1D1R, most of area of storage array all is used as the metal-oxide-semiconductor of gate tube, or diode consumed, and do not reach the maximum set Cheng Du of phase change cells.Second, find according to experiment, phase-change memory cell on same phase change memory chip, outstanding inadequately and phase change cells and the equal reason of driving circuit distance owing to process consistency, RESET operation back high value distribute with SET after low resistance distribution all very extensive (high resistant 20k-500kOhm, low-resistance 1k-10kOhm), even the situation that the high resistant low resistance overlaps appears, the data that correctly read on the phase change cells are made a big impact, and a little less than the antijamming capability of circuit, reading speed is slow; The 3rd, phase transition storage depends on Joule heat and changes its resistance states, find according to experiment, after phase-changing memory unit is carried out repeatedly read operation, the RESET state of unit and the resistance of SET state all can increase along with the number of times of read operation and reduce, under traditional 1T1R and 1D1R structure, when low the arriving to a certain degree of phase change cells resistance value of " RESET " state, read error may take place, and the gap of high low resistance diminishes and also can have influence on the chip read margin.Four, after phase change cells was by RESET repeatedly or SET operation, the resistance situation of device own also can be very complicated.

Describe the preferred embodiments of the present invention in detail below in conjunction with accompanying drawing.
Phase transition storage of the present invention uses the shared gating diode of a plurality of phase change cells to go to replace the unitized construction storage data of a traditional gating diode and a phase change cells, thereby improves the storage density of phase transition storage.Of the present invention another implemented by using complementary storage phase change resistor unit, being that (wherein " D " refers to diode diode to 1D2R, " R " refers to resistance resistance) structure, improve under the situation of chip area in little amplitude, improve reading speed, reliability, the stability of chip.Below describe in detail with embodiment.
Embodiment one
See also Fig. 1, Fig. 2 and Fig. 4, present embodiment is introduced the phase transition storage 400 that storage unit is the 1D2R structure.
At first introduce the structure of storage unit in the present embodiment.As shown in Figure 1, storage unit 100 comprises phase-change memory cell 101a and 101b, gating diode 102, phase-change material top electrode 103a and 103b, word line WL, bit line BL and BLn.Wherein phase-change memory cell 101a and phase-change memory cell 101b store the data (so " phase-change memory cell " also can be described as " complementary state phase change cells " in the present embodiment) of two complementations, for example when 101a is " RESET " state, 101b is " SET " state, promptly stores the data of 1bit with two phase change cells.In the present embodiment, insert the positive pole of gating diode 102 after phase-change memory cell 101a, the 101b parallel connection.Storage unit can also be the structure among Fig. 2, i.e. phase-change memory cell 202a and the negative pole that inserts gating diode 201 after 202b is in parallel.Storage unit 100 is not limited only to 1D2R with the structure of storage unit 200, can be 1DnR, and n is the integer more than or equal to 2.
Introduce the structure of phase transition storage in the present embodiment below in conjunction with Fig. 4.As shown in Figure 4, the present invention has disclosed a kind of phase transition storage, comprises some storage unit 407, sense amplifier 403, read-write drive circuit 404, column selection circuit passband and code translator 405, line decoder 406; The bit line of described some storage unit 407 inserts described column selection circuit passband and code translator 405, and the word line of each storage unit 407 inserts described line decoder 406; Described column selection circuit passband is connected described read-write drive circuit 404, reaches sense amplifier 403 with code translator 405, described read-write drive circuit 404 connects described sense amplifier 403.Described each storage unit 407 comprises a gating diode 402 and two complementary state phase change cells 401 (being phase-change memory cell 101a, the 101b among Fig. 1); Described each complementary state phase change cells 401 back in parallel are connected with described gating diode 402.
Described two complementary state phase change cells 401 are stored two opposite resistance states respectively.For example in two complementary phase change cells, first is " RESET " state, and then another is " SET " state, and what thought memory stores this moment is " RESET " state; When first was " SET " state, second what then think this a pair of phase change cells storage for " RESET " was " SET " state.
The storage unit of phase transition storage of the present invention has overcome the shortcoming of the traditional phase transition storage among Fig. 3 (storage unit is by adopting the 1D1R structure) by the structure that adopts 1D2R.First, because the structure of 1D2R is the data of storage 1bit in two phase change cells of facing mutually, the phase change cells of two complementations compares mutually when data are read, then can eliminate because process deviation, and the distance of storage unit and driving circuit is unequal during chip layout, the phase change cells resistance deviation that causes.The second, in normal operating process, the phase change cells of two complementations has necessarily experienced the read operation of same number, and both resistance can reduce simultaneously, can effectively reduce the influence of the cumulative effect of read operation to phase change resistor.The 3rd, because write operation carries out a pair of complementation unit, and be that both compare mutually when reading, storage unit increases and problem aging, that DUMMY does not change thereupon along with writing number of times in the 1D1R structure so can reduce, and has improved the global reliability of device.
Fig. 5 is a typical differential amplifier structural drawing, and upward voltage is greater than the voltage on the BLkn as BLk, and Data_out exports high level, on the contrary output low level.
See also Fig. 6 on the theoretical foundation of Fig. 5, Fig. 6 is the traditional 1D1R and the playback mode and the bit-line voltage comparison synoptic diagram of 1D2R structure.Wherein Vmin is the minimum voltage difference that amplifier 403 is correctly read BLk and the last data of BLkn among Fig. 4.Δ V is the allowance of reading of this circuit, and VBLk_read is the high operation voltage on the word line in the read operation, Td be the 1D2R structure with respect to the 1D1R structure, the delay that reduces when reading.
Because in the structure of 1D2R, voltage difference is the twice of voltage difference between BLk and the VREF in the 1D1R structure between BLk and the BLkn, thus can reach the Vmin that amplifier needs earlier, thus fast speeds is arranged, and read the twice that allowance also is 1D1R.Simultaneously, 1D2R realizes that reading among the 1D1R postpones and read allowance, only needs to use half read operation voltage or the operating current of 1D1R, can effectively reduce since read pulse to the change of phase change cells resistance.
