Abstract:Phase change memory (PCM) is one of the most promising nonvolatile memory technologies for high-density, highendurance, fast-switching, and multilevel data storage. However, the high RESET current requirement remains a critical bottleneck in the development of PCM technology. In this work, we propose a pillar-shaped PCM device that consists of a Ge 2 Sb 2 Te 5 (GST) layer sandwiched between the top and the bottom TiN electrodes. An atomically thin layer of MoS 2 is grown on top of the oxidized bottom TiN layer… Show more
