Abstract

The charge trapping and tunnelling characteristics with various thickness of $Si_3N_4$ layer were investigated for application of TBE (Tunnel Barrier Engineered) non-volatile memory. We confirmed that the critical thickness of no charge trapping was existed with decreasing $Si_3N_4$ thickness. Also, the charge trap centroid x and charge trap density were extracted by using CCS (Constant Current Stress) method. Through the optimized thickness of $Si_3N_4$ layer, it can be improve the performance of non-volatile memory.
