The bandwidth, low cost, great storage capacity and performance are characteristics of the random Access Memories (RAM).Some kinds of RAM include ferro-random access memory (FRAM) and magnetoresistive random access memory (MRAM), the latter being of great interest to the scientific community since storage is achieved via magnetic orientation rather than electric orientation. In this paper, we analyze the effect of the application of an external magnetic field on the current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of Schottky barriers made of silicon-gold, to show the effects of magnetoresistance in dispositive semiconductors suited for use as memory storage.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
