Definitions

  • Embodiments of the invention relate to phase change memory materials and more particularly to GeAs telluride materials useful for phase change memory applications, for example, optical and electronic data storage.
  • phase change memory devices utilize materials which can change between two phases having distinct properties.
  • the materials typically, can change from an amorphous phase to a crystalline phase, and the phases can have considerably different properties, for example, different resistivities, conductivities, and/or reflectivities.
  • Phase change from an amorphous phase to a crystalline phase can be achieved through heating the amorphous material to a temperature which promotes nucleation, crystal formation, and then crystallization. The phase change back to amorphous can be achieved by heating the crystalline phase above the melting temperature.
  • Chalcogenide materials for example, Ge, Sb, and Te alloys are currently used in phase change memory applications such as for storing information in over writable disks.
  • phase change memory materials identified to date have been developed by workers at Matsushita/Panasonic and IBM. Representative materials include compositions on the GeTe-Sb 2 Te 3 join, particularly Ge 2 Sb 2 Te 5 (GST), and Au, In-doped Sb telluride (AIST) . These materials can be cycled on a -10ns time scale between a high conductivity, high reflectivity- crystalline phase and a low conductivity, low reflectivity amorphous phase under laser heating or current pulses .
  • GST and AIST have good properties for non-volatile memory applications, it would be advantageous to have phase change memory materials that have faster phase transitions and/or longer write/rewrite potential.
  • Embodiments of the invention are GeAsTe-based compositions for phase change memory applications that lie outside of the canonical GeSbTe system. Moreover, as certain GeAsTe compositions can be made into bulk glasses, the stability of the GeAsTe amorphous phase is likely to be greater than that of the GeSbTe analogues where bulk glass formation is not possible. This feature may result in an increased number of write/rewrite cycles without degradation of conductivity/reflectivity contrast as well as longer data retention.
  • One embodiment of the invention is an article comprising a crystallized thin film comprising a composition having at least one hexagonal phase, or a crystallizable composition capable of having at least one hexagonal phase in a crystallized form.
  • Another embodiment of the invention is a method comprising providing a thin film comprising a phase change memory amorphous material, and converting the phase change memory amorphous material to a hexagonal crystalline phase.
  • Yet another embodiment of the invention is a method comprising providing a thin film comprising a phase change memory material having a hexagonal crystalline phase, and converting the hexagonal crystalline phase to an amorphous phase .

  • the thin film can be deposited on a substrate, according to one embodiment.
  • the substrate comprises a glass, a glass ceramic, a ceramic, a polymer, a metal, or combinations thereof, in some embodiments.
  • GeAsTe glasses and their crystalline analogues have the potential of being phase change materials characterized by a glassy state that can be more stable than that of conventional phase change materials such as GST and AIST.
  • a wide range of GeAsTe glasses, according to the invention can transform to a more reflective crystalline phase upon heating than the above described conventional materials. For glasses on the Te-GeAs 2 join, this phenomenon has been demonstrated for compositions containing from 45 to 65 atomic percent Te. Many of these materials, when crystallized, consist of at least two phases: either two crystalline phases or one crystalline phase plus a residual glass phase.
  • Glasses with compositions on the As 2 Te 3 -GeTe join can be crystallized to a single phase and, as such, can exhibit maximum conductivity/reflectivity contrast between the glassy and crystalline state.
  • Such glasses can be doped with constituents compatible with the crystalline phase, such as Al, Si, Ga, Se, In, Sn, Tl, Pb, Bi, P, S, or a combination thereof without forming a second phase in the heated state.

  • Converting the phase change memory amorphous material to a hexagonal crystalline phase can comprise heating. Isothermal heating, for example, electrical heating using resistive and/or inductive heating; laser heating; or the like can be used to heat the thin film to induce phase change.
