Description

Static random access memory
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductors, in particular to a novel static random access memory.
Background
With the continuous progress of semiconductor technology, the deep nano technology era is entered, and a fin field effect transistor (FinFET) becomes one of the core devices of the deep nano technology by virtue of its excellent gate control capability. Research on the application of finfets as core devices is also widely spread, and the memory circuit has the most promising application prospect.
However, in the case of a FinFET, this characteristic of the FinFET is very significant for a Static Random Access Memory (SRAM) due to the fact that the width-to-length ratio of the device cannot be arbitrarily adjusted. As the process dimensions of integrated circuits shrink to near nanometer scale, moore's law faces significant challenges, reaching its physical limits in the next decade. Therefore, it is necessary to develop new devices with higher flexibility and apply them to solve the design contradiction of six-transistor SRAM cells. In recent years, the concept of Reconfigurable Field Effect Transistors (RFETs) has been proposed and rapidly became a focus of research, and device-level reconfigurability promises to realize more complex and lower device count circuits. Many novel structures have been proposed to achieve reconfigurability of the device. In the reconfigurable field effect transistors, the polarity of a device channel carrier is adjusted by applying different voltage biases to the double gates, so that the rotation of an n-type device and a p-type device is realized, and meanwhile, the electrical doping characteristics of the reconfigurable transistor bring great convenience in the manufacturing process. However, when the conventional symmetric reconfigurable field effect transistor is simply used and applied to the SRAM, the read/write contradiction cannot be solved well because the pass transistor and the pull-down transistor have the same conductivity. In past research, we found that the existence of the double gate for the RFET can dynamically adjust the schottky barrier between the source and drain terminals, thereby selecting the type of on-carriers and influencing the tunneling probability of the carriers. Therefore, the reconfigurable field effect transistor with the asymmetric structure can not only realize the optimization of the device performance, but also bring great improvement on the performance by utilizing the inconsistency of the conduction current and flexibly applying the reconfigurable field effect transistor to a microcircuit unit.
Based on the research of RFET, it is necessary to design and realize a 6T-SRAM with excellent performance for SRAM, if the read stability is enhanced, the gain factor β of the transmission transistorPGA gain factor β smaller than the pull-down transistor is requiredPDAnd to enhance the write capability of the six-transistor SRAM cell, the gain factor β of the pass transistorPGA gain factor β greater than the pull-up transistor is requiredPUWithin reasonable limits, β is satisfiedPDPGPUThe six-transistor SRAM cell with high read stability and high write capability can be obtained simultaneously. Therefore, in order to improve the performance of the memory circuit, the six-transistor SRAM cell needs to adopt a lower conductivity pass transistor to improve the read stability, and simultaneously needs a higher conductivity pass transistor to enhance the write capability.
