Technical Field

Background
With the continuous development of integrated circuits, high-speed, high-density, and novel electrically accessible non-volatile memories (NVM) have been recognized as the key to the development of future information technology. Existing NVMs include molecular, random access, flash and ferroelectric NVMs, of which ferroelectric NVMs are of great interest for their low power consumption, high write-erase speed and high endurance performance. However, there are several obstacles to commercialization of perovskite ferroelectric NVM, such as low storage density, high integration cost, etc.;
a Topological Insulator (TI) is a material that is an insulator (or semiconductor) in the bulk, with the surface protected in the metallic state by time-reversal symmetry. Due to the quantum confinement effect of the TI material sub-surface, a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) is formed on the surface, making the surface band-gap-free. The electrons in the 2DEG can be viewed as a mass-free dirac fermi. Therefore, the electrons of the TI surface have higher mobility and response speed. However, there is currently little research on the polarization of TI materials and their application to memory.

Ellipsometry measurements were performed with the coupons with errors within 2 nm. Next, Ti/Pt is deposited to form a buried gate 102 having an upper surface that is level with the upper surface of the substrate, and the resulting structure is shown in FIG. 2. Wherein the thickness of the Ti layer is 15nm, and the thickness of the Pt layer is 70 nm.

Step S5, adopting a mechanical stripping method to remove the MoS of the two-dimensional material 2106 are transferred to the second high-K dielectric 105 as a channel. The two-dimensional material 106 is sized and positioned to completely cover the topological insulator Bi2Se3104, and the resulting structure is shown in fig. 4.
In step S6, the source and drain regions are patterned by electron beam lithography, and then Ti/Au with a thickness of 15 nm/70 nm is deposited as the source electrode 107 and the drain electrode 108 by Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD), and the resulting structure is shown in fig. 5. A source electrode 107 and a drain electrode 108 formed on the substrate respectivelySeparately covering MoS 2106 and has no overlap with the projection of the buried gate 102 in the horizontal plane direction.
