Nonvolatile charge trap memory is an important part of the continuous development of information technology. As a 2-dimensional (2D) material with fantastic physical characteristics, molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) has been receiving extensive attention for its potential applications in electronic devices. However, while various attempts have been made to devise its charge-trap gate stack, it's still impossible to avoid a certain performance degradation. Here, a MoS 2 -based nonvolatile charge trapping memory device with a charge-trap gate stack formed by implanting N ions into SiO 2 is reported. The fabricated N-implanted memory devices with the energy of 6.5 keV and the dose of 1 × 10 15 ions cm −2 exhibit a high on/off current ratio up to 10 7 , a large memory window of 9.1 V, and a high program/erase speed of 10/100 µs. Moreover, the memory device shows an excellent cycling endurance of more than 10 4 cycles. By combining the MoS 2 channel with the N-implanted chargetrap gate stack, this research opens up a fascinating field of nonvolatile charge trap memory devices.
