Description
本発明のさまざまな実施形態は、フォノンブロック絶縁層を有して構成される不揮発性メモリセルに一般的に向けられている。
本開示は、磁気ランダムアクセスメモリおよび磁性スピン注入磁化反転型ランダムアクセスメモリ(MRAMおよびSTRAM)積層体などの不揮発性メモリセルに一般的に関する。固体不揮発性メモリは、小さくなり続ける形状因子において、信頼性のあるデータ記憶およびより高速のデータ転送速度を提供することを目的とする開発中の技術である。しかしながら、記憶デバイスの形状因子が小さくなるにつれ、メモリ機能を維持するのに必要な、要する異方性磁界が大きくなる。そのような異方性磁界の増大は、増大したスイッチング電流および低い動作マージンのような実際的な困難に対応する。最近の取組みは、固体セルを熱的に補助して、要するスイッチング電流を低減することを中心に展開しているが、大部分の固体メモリ材料の熱伝導率が高いため、適用される如何なる熱も放散されてしまう。
