Therefore, there is a need to further develop new types of memories based on non-charge storage. In addition, the current computer system adopts a von neumann architecture, in which a computing unit is separated from a storage unit, and a large amount of data is transported between the computing unit and the storage unit during each operation, so that the energy utilization rate is reduced, and the von neumann architecture has higher operating energy consumption and lower access speed, and further development of the computer is restricted. In order to solve the above problems, a memory-computing integrated architecture needs to be considered, and thus a new device having a memory computing function needs to be developed. Therefore, the development direction of the current memory application is to research a new device based on new materials and new storage mechanisms and having a function of integrating storage.
The resistive random access memory has the advantages of simple structure, strong area reducible property, compatibility of a preparation process and the current CMOS process, low operation energy consumption and the like, has a nonvolatile characteristic, can keep a better state after external voltage is removed, and has memory computing capability. Therefore, the metal oxide-based resistance change memory has attracted attention as a new device having a function of integrating memory, and is expected to be a new-generation memory. However, in the prior art, the operation voltage of the resistive random access memory is generally high and is difficult to match with the clock voltage of the current peripheral circuit; in addition, different types of resistive random access memories have advantages and disadvantages, and cannot integrate advantages of low operating voltage, high speed, strong stability and the like, so that the application of the resistive random access memories is limited.

Memories are memory devices used in modern information technology for storing information, the main function of which is to store various data and programs, and the memory function is usually implemented by using physical devices (memory cells) having two stable states (respectively denoted as "0" and "1").
Currently, the mainstream nonvolatile semiconductor memory mainly adopts a flash memory with a floating gate structure. The structure of floating gate flash memories has not changed much in the last 30 years, and its main development direction is the reduction of feature size. However, with the size reduction, the floating gate memory has other problems, such as poor stability.
A Resistive Random Access Memory (RRAM) using a resistance transformation effect as a working principle is one of the most promising next-generation nonvolatile memories. Compared with the traditional floating gate flash memory, the method has obvious advantages in the aspects of device structure, speed, scalability, three-dimensional integration potential and the like. The resistive random access memory is of a sandwich structure consisting of an upper electrode layer, a lower electrode layer and a resistance conversion layer between the upper electrode layer and the lower electrode layer, wherein the resistance conversion layer can perform reversible conversion between different resistance states under the action of different external voltage and current signals, and the resistance conversion layer is usually in a high resistance state and a low resistance state.
However, in the prior art, the operation voltage of the resistive random access memory is generally high and is difficult to match with the clock voltage of the current peripheral circuit; in addition, different types of resistive random access memories have advantages and disadvantages, and cannot integrate advantages of low operating voltage, high speed, strong stability and the like, so that the application of the resistive random access memories is limited.
The invention provides a bipolar resistive random access memory and a preparation method thereof, and aims to solve the technical problems that in the prior art, the resistive random access memory cannot be matched with a clock voltage of a peripheral circuit due to high operating voltage, and cannot integrate the advantages of low operating voltage, high speed, strong stability and the like.
As shown in fig. 1, an aspect of the present invention provides a method for manufacturing the bipolar resistive random access memory, including:
step S101, forming a bottom electrode on a substrate;
step S102, forming a resistance change medium layer on the bottom electrode by adjusting radio frequency power and/or chamber pressure through a plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition method;
and S103, forming an active electrode on the resistive switching medium layer to form the bipolar resistive switching memory.
As shown in fig. 2, the bipolar resistive random access memory according to the embodiment of the present invention includes: the resistive random access memory comprises a substrate 210, a bottom electrode 220, a resistive random access dielectric layer 230, an active electrode 240 and a top electrode 250 from bottom to top in sequence. The resistive medium layer 230 is located between the active electrode 240 and the bottom electrode 220, the resistive medium layer 230 forms a conductive channel communicating the upper electrode and the lower electrode under the action of an electric field, when a forward voltage is applied to the device, the conductive channel is maintained, the memory device is in a low-resistance state, the corresponding stored data of the device is '0', and conversely, when a reverse voltage is applied to the device, the conductive channel is disconnected, the device is in a high-resistance state, and the corresponding stored data of the device is '1'.
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, according to an embodiment of the present invention, at step S102: forming a resistance change medium layer on the bottom electrode by adjusting radio frequency power and/or chamber pressure by adopting a plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition method, wherein the method comprises the following steps: siH with a gas flow of 12sccm 4 And N at a gas flow rate of 1420sccm 2 O is reactant, the temperature of the substrate is 200-400 ℃ is reaction condition, a plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition method (PECVD) is adopted, and SiO is formed on the bottom electrode by adjusting radio frequency power and/or chamber pressure 2 The resistance change medium layer, wherein the adjusting range of the cavity pressure is 400mT-600mT, and the adjusting range of the radio frequency power is 20W-90W.
According to an embodiment of the invention, the reactant SiH 4 The carrier gas is nitrogen N 2 And nitrogen gas N 2 The gas flow rate of (3) may be 392sccm.
According to the embodiment of the invention, the refractive index of the resistive switching medium layer is 1.488-1.545 so as to ensure that the density effect of the resistive switching medium layer is better.
According to the embodiment of the invention, the resistive switching medium layer is made of materials except the SiO 2 In addition, hfO may be used 2 Or Ta 2 O 5 The thickness is 5-20nm.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the substrate temperature of the reaction condition for preparing the resistive switching medium layer 230 may be 200 ℃ to 400 ℃, and specifically may be 300 ℃. The substrate is used to mount a plate-like object having a substrate structure (e.g., a silicon wafer) of the bottom electrode 220 during the above-described process of preparing the resistive dielectric layer 230. Therefore, the preparation process of the bipolar resistive random access memory can adopt a low-temperature process compatible with a CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) process, so that the preparation of the bipolar resistive random access memory is easier for industrial production.
In the embodiment of the invention, the adjustment of the film density of the resistive dielectric layer 230 can be realized by adjusting the radio frequency power in the plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition method. Specifically, when the radio frequency power is enhanced, the energy obtained by the plasma is increased, the migration capability of ions on the surface of the substrate is enhanced, and the products are easier to migrate to the position with the lowest energy for uniform arrangement, so that the generated film structure is more compact; of course, as the rf power continues to increase, the reaction rate is further increased, and the particles reaching the substrate surface may not have enough time to arrange regularly and may be covered by the particles subsequently reaching the substrate, so that a dense and uniform film is not easily formed. Therefore, the adjustment range of the radio frequency power in the embodiment of the present invention is 20W to 90W, and specifically, 30W to 70W may be selected, for example, one of 30W, 35W, 40W, 45W, 50W, 55W, 60W, 65W and 70W, for example, 40W, so as to ensure that the compactness of the resistive medium layer 230 film achieves the best effect.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the adjustment of the density of the thin film of the resistive switching medium layer 230 can be realized by adjusting the chamber pressure in the plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition method. Specifically, when the pressure of the cavity is increased, the mean free path of the reactant is reduced, the acceleration of ions is limited, the migration capability on the surface of the substrate is weakened, the reaction rate is accelerated, and the particles reaching the surface of the substrate are covered by the particles which reach the substrate later without enough time for regular arrangement, so that the density of the film is reduced; conversely, when the chamber pressure is reduced, the densification of the film is enhanced. For this reason, the chamber pressure of the embodiment of the invention is adjusted within a range of 400mT to 600mT, for example, one of 400mT, 450mT, 500mT, 550mT, 600mT, and the like, for example, 550mT, so as to optimize the compactness of the thin film of the resistive switching medium layer 230. The adjustment of the radio frequency power and the chamber pressure can affect the density of the film, so that the radio frequency power and the chamber pressure can be adjusted respectively and independently or simultaneously, the two actions are restricted mutually, the density of the film is affected jointly, and the density of the film is optimal. For this purpose, RF power of 40W may be selected, and chamber pressure of 550mT is used as a reaction condition when RF power and chamber pressure are adjusted simultaneously.
The film density (or called density) of the resistive dielectric layer 230 affects the operation speed of the device, and specifically, the density of the resistive dielectric layer 230 is reduced, and the diffusion barrier for Ag ions to move in the resistive dielectric layer 230 is reduced, so that the Ag ions can more easily move in the dielectric layer under the action of an external electric field, thereby accelerating the formation or disconnection of a conductive channel, and improving the operation speed of the device.
In addition, the thickness of the resistive medium layer 230 may also directly affect the operating voltage, and specifically, for a newly prepared memory device, a channel is not formed in the resistive medium layer 230, and an initial voltage applied to the device is divided by the resistance of the resistive medium layer 230, on one hand, ag ions are driven to enter the resistive medium layer 230 and migrate in the medium layer. Therefore, by reducing the thickness of the resistive switching medium layer 230, the resistance of the resistive switching medium layer 230 can be reduced, and the divided voltage on the resistive switching medium layer 230 can be reduced, thereby reducing the initial operating voltage for forming a channel of the device. In the embodiment of the invention, the thickness of the resistive switching medium layer 230 is between 5nm and 20nm, and 20nm is preferred. Further, the forming material of the resistive switching medium layer 230 may be selected from hafnium oxide HfO 2 Tantalum oxide Ta 2 O 5 And silica SiO 2 One of the layers is selected to ensure the stable performance of the resistance change medium layer. In the embodiment of the invention, the resistive switching medium layer 230 may be silicon dioxide SiO 2 To prepare the material.
Therefore, the preparation method of the bipolar resistive random access memory provided by the embodiment of the invention can realize the conditions of density and thickness of the resistive random access dielectric layer by adjusting the radio frequency power and/or the pressure of the cavity, so that the bipolar resistive random access memory provided by the invention can realize the adjustment of the operating voltage. In addition, by the preparation method, the thickness of the active electrode can be adjusted at the same time, so that the stability of a conductive channel of the bipolar resistive random access memory can be improved. Therefore, the bipolar memory can integrate lower operating voltage, higher programming speed and higher stability, and greatly promotes the application of the device in the fields of Internet of things, embedding and the like.

The forming material of the active electrode can be silver Ag, nickel Ni, cobalt Co or copper Cu, so as to ensure good conductive effect. In addition, the active electrode needs to maintain a certain thickness, taking the active electrode 240 as a silver Ag layer as an example, if the thickness is too thin, the amount of Ag ions provided by the active electrode is small, and under the action of an external electric field, the Ag ions entering the resistive switching medium layer 230 are not enough to form a robust and stable conductive channel, after the voltage is removed, at a high temperature, the Ag atoms forming the conductive channel diffuse to the surroundings, the channel gradually dissolves, and the low resistance state cannot be maintained, so that the requirement of the nonvolatile memory cannot be met.
