Fig. 1 shows the xsect of the conventional example of MTJ mram cell 100.This figure is parallel to and/or cuts logical each element, as described below.The element of unit 100 comprises MTJ114; Conductive layer 102 " writes " line as the bit at the bit of being stored among the MTJ 114 and operates with " reading " line; Conductive layer 104 " writes " the line operation as word; And FET 106, have source electrode 108, drain electrode 110 and grid 112, operate as the switch that is used to read the bit of being stored.Typically, writing line 102 and 104 is perpendicular to one another, and as from the unit 100 top seeing, and is positioned at the parallel plane of separation.
MTJ 114 is formed at the intersection point place of writing line 102 and 104, and is described as other places.The side of MTJ 114 and line 102 are electrically connected continuous, and by power path 116, and it is continuous that the source electrode 108 of opposite side and FET106 is electrically connected, as described further below.Line 104 and MTJ 114 are that electricity interrupts.
The drain electrode 110 of FET 106 links to each other with ground 118.Usually, normally not conducting of FET 106, thereby do not have electric current can from line 102 by MTJ 114, path 116 and source electrode 108 flow into " ".When with suitable current selective ground is instantaneous when being applied to line 102 and 104, it has created quadrature field in MTJ 114.These are with the low magnetic resistance state (R of MTJ 114 PARALLEL) or its high magnetic resistance state (R ANTIPARALLEL), optionally write or be provided with MTJ 114.Subsequently, can apply signal by applying to line 102 from the electric current of current source and to the grid 112 of FET, read the state of MTJ 114, described signal acts on source electrode 108 and the conduction between 110 of draining.Read flow through-low or high-MTJ 114, path 116 and conducting FET106 to " " amplitude of 118 electric current, to determine that MTJ 114 is in high-impedance state or low resistive state.High-impedance state causes that the electric current lower than low resistive state passes through element 114,116 and 106.
MRAM can comprise word line (WL) 104 a large amount of parallel bit line (BL) 102 and quadrature, that be parallel to each other with the MTJ 114 that is positioned at each word line-bit line point of crossing place.
Come manufacturing cell 100 by typical integrated circuit technique, wherein utilize photoetching (lithographic), mix and other handle zone and the layer that forms various conductors, semiconductor and insulator.For example, ground 118 among Fig. 1 comprises column conductive metal contact 120, at one end the diffusion region 110 (i.e. drain electrode) with FET is electrically connected continuous, and it is continuous to be electrically connected at the other end and public conduction ground wire 122 outside the plane neutralization that extends among the figure, and is electrically connected continuous with the similar contact 120 of other unit 100 (not shown).Similarly, path 116 parts comprise post-like electrical contact 124, link to each other with the source electrode 108 of FET 106 at one end, link to each other with the hardware 126 of a part of serving as path 116 at other end place.
As shown in the figure, contact 120 and 124 is coplanes; In addition, hardware 126 and metal earth 122 are coplanes.In fact, form element 120,124 simultaneously, and form hardware 122,126 by the metal level (M1) that deposits simultaneously after a while.Particularly, after forming FET 106, in silicon substrate 128 and on, by traditional doping and deposition technique, the peripheral region of FET 106 and substrate is covered by electric insulation layer 130.Described layer 130 is used for protecting FET 106 during manufacturing cell and in use after a while.Finally, layer 130 has the degree of depth of the height that equals contact 124,120.Typically, this is slightly larger than the required degree of depth by layer 130 is deposited as, and removes unnecessary part by planarization technique (for example chemical-mechanical polishing) then and realizes.
After making layer 130, come optionally it to be etched with to make through hole or hole 132,134 by known photoetching technique and other similar techniques, extend by layer, and in its bottom-exposed source electrode and drain electrode 108 and 110.Then, metal is deposited or is filled in the through hole 132,134, thereby make the contact 120,124 of such formation be electrically connected continuous with contact 110 and source electrode 108 respectively.
Next, form metal level M1, the end of overlayer 130 and contact 120,124, conductive layer M1 and described end are electrically connected continuous.Finally, because the application of planarization steps, the degree of depth of layer M1 adopts the desired thickness of element 126 and ground wire 122.Next, use photoetching technique to remove the excess metal of layer M1, stay element 126 and ground wire 122.
Path 116 comprises contact 142, is electrically connected continuous with element 126.By at first insulation course 144 being deposited on the complanation top surface of a layer M1, ground wire 122 and element 126, then,, form the through hole 146 that passes through wherein by selective etch or other removal technology, form contact 142.Then, come filling vias 146, and realize the coplanarity of the top surface of layer 144 and contact 142 in any mode easily with the metal of contact 142.
Next, second metal level (M2) is coated on the top surface of layer 144 and contact 142, subsequently, carries out lithography selective etch or other removal technology, so that remove the selected portion on the layer M2, to make word writing line 104 and the coplane conductive member 150 that is electrically connected continuous with contact 142.Next, online 104 and the complanation top surface of member 150 on and online 104 and the interval of member 150 in, form insulation course 152.Next, in the through hole 156 that extends by layer 152, form top surface with the member 150 continuous contact 154 that is electrically connected.
On the top of the complanation top surface of insulation course 152, depositing metal layers 160 subsequently, stays hardware 162 to the selective removal of layer 160, top with contact 154 is electrically connected at one end, and has and the top surface interval of member 104 and " freedom " end of electrical isolation.Use similar techniques on the top surface of " freedom " end of member 162, to make MTJ 114, and be electrically connected with " freedom " end of member 162.In addition, realize that known technology is provided with additional metal layer (M3), form MTJ bit line (BL) 102, be positioned at the top of MTJ 114 and be electrically connected continuous with MTJ 114 by it.
At last, realize that known technology is provided with another metal level (M4), form metal wire 300 by it, usually perpendicular to metal BL 102 and with metal BL 102 electrical isolations.The metal wire 300 that use has relatively low resistance reduces the resistance of polymerization word line 112.Polymerization will provide harmful long RC to postpone to word line 112 separately.Usually, metal wire 300 has the sheet resistance of about 0.1ohm/sq, switches to the polymerization word line 112 of the sheet resistance with about 5ohm/sq.Shown in Figure 1A, per 128 bit lines switch to polymerization word line 112 with metal wire 122, and this is the typical scenario of traditional MRAM configuration.For example, can use the technology that is called as stitch (stitch) known from the DRAM technology that this bypass is provided.Described stitch has been realized the ohmic combination of metal wire 300 and polymerization word line 112, and this has reduced total RC delay, has therefore increased the access time.
Notice that metal level M1 comprises element 122 and 126, M2 comprises element 104 and 150, and M3 comprises element 102, and M4 comprises element 300.As can be seen, the structure of traditional MTJ MRAM comprises a plurality of detailed levels and processing.Layer and correlative sediments operation, etching and other minimizings of removing the quantity of operation and/and other lithography operations will reduce manufacturing cost, and/or the per unit capacity provides more storage.One aspect of the present invention has reduced the number of plies, and more specifically, metal level thus, is advantageously realized reducing manufacturing cost and/or reducing cell capability.
Fig. 2 shows the xsect of the MTJ memory device 200 of the exemplary embodiments according to the present invention.Memory device 200 comprises bit line 102 and word line 104, is used for operating as mentioned above MTJ 114.In addition, can make memory device 200 by above-mentioned traditional integrated circuit technique.Yet, use connection of the present invention and activation scheme, from current memory device 200, eliminated layer M1 and M4 (from Fig. 1).In order to remain on preferred low ohm word line and the low ohm ground of reading set in traditional mram cell 100 by metal level (promptly being respectively M4 and M1), the line 104 that makes the current connection and the scheme of activation is for multi-functional.That is, except the line 104 in the magnetic field that is used for realizing MTJ 114, also use line 104 to reduce the high ohm property of polymerization WL 112, and low ohm ground is provided.
In order to provide the low ohm word line that reads, the metal word lines 104 of each unit is switched to its polymerization WL 112 according to current connection and activation scheme.Fig. 2 and 3 is shown item 33 with this bypass.Fig. 3 shows the synoptic diagram of MTJ memory device 200 shown in Figure 2.For example, can provide bypass, be similar to stitch at the described metal wire 300 to polymerization WL112 of Figure 1A by the stitch technology.Being connected (after this be called as and be expressed as Adr (n) 104 at Fig. 3) (as described below) with the advanced signal of the line 104 of corresponding activation scheme combination is used to cancel M4 (Fig. 1).
For low ohm ground is provided, also in stitch is handled, the Adr (n) 104 of each unit is switched to diffusely 110 of an adjacent cells (be shown 35 in Fig. 3, and illustrated by the dotted line among Fig. 2).Therefore, also carry out the function of the metal earth 122 of M1 (among Fig. 1), therefore, can cancel it with the Adr (n) 104 of the activation scheme combination of the following stated.Therefore, contact 150 can be directly applied to the top surface of contact 124, further cancel contact 142, further reduce the overall height of device 200.
The typical read/write of below having described according to the magnetic memory architecture shown in Fig. 2 and 3 activates scheme.At first, for specific MTJ unit 114 is write, optionally suitable electric current is applied to instantaneously writing line BL (n) 102 and the Adr (n) 104 related with MTJ unit 114.For example, for the unit among Fig. 3 " A " write, (for example, about 5mA) is applied to Adr (1) and BL (0) with write current.Here, the voltage of Adr (1) is approximately 0.25V, equals 5mA * 50ohm.In addition since with polymerization WL (1) stitch 33 to Adr (1), the output of switch " D " and " E " must be remained on low-voltage (for example 0.25V) and during writing, be switched on preventing.Because the diffusion region stitch of each switch 106 is to adjacent writing line Adr (n) 104, therefore, by 0.25 necessary volt signal is applied to every other Adr (n), the output of switch " D " and " E " is remained on low level.
For reading unit " A ", electric current is applied to BL (0), and by activation signal being applied to grid via Adr (1), and ground is exported with reference to being applied to switch via other Adr (n), actuating switch " D ", so that " D " realizes conducting by switch, it is carried out the state of sensing with the MTJ of determining unit " A ".More specifically, will move on the Adr (1) high level (for example, approximately 1.8V), and make every other Adr (n) that low level (for example, ground=0V) with connection is provided with providing.Can comprise that the amplitude that traditional circuit comes sense current to flow through is in high-impedance state or low resistive state with definite MTJ 114.High-impedance state has caused the electric current lower than low resistive state.
The combination of the current connection and the scheme of activation provides the function of metal level M1 and the M4 and the writing line of traditional MTJ configuration of cells in the single multi-function metal line, shown in Figure 1.
With reference now to Fig. 2 A,, shows another embodiment of the present invention.In this embodiment, with contact 154,150 and 124 (shown in Figure 2) by being combined in the single dark contact 250.Typically, traditional integrated circuit (IC) design need (be shown " X ") to metal distance such as the metal between the hardwares such as 104 and 150 among Fig. 2 in the scope of about 0.24 μ m.Use deep via contact 250, reduced distance X (up to reducing with 1/3) significantly, the result has greatly reduced the overall width of multiple-unit mtj structure.Traditionally, can make via-contact narrower than hard contact.Shown in Fig. 2 and 2A, conventional via contacts 124,154 and 250 is narrower than the conventional metals member, for example member 150 (approximately narrow 0.16 μ m).Shown in Fig. 2 A, use deep via contact to allow the X size of the about 0.24 μ m from Fig. 2 to be reduced to the corresponding Y size of the about 0.16 μ m among Fig. 2 A.
Deep via contact 250 is applied to electric contact between source electrode 108 and the member 162, and can uses known conventional art to form.
Although described the preferred embodiment of equipment of the present invention and method in shown in the drawings and the detailed description in front, but should be appreciated that, the present invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiments, but under the prerequisite of spirit of the present invention that does not break away from the illustrated and definition of claims, can carry out a large amount of reconstruct, modification and substitute.
