We have designed and tested an RSFQ (Rapid Single Flux Quantum) NDRO (Non Destructive Read Out) circuit for the development of a high speed superconducting ALU (Arithmetic Logic Unit). When designing the NDRO circuit, we used Julia, XIC and Lmeter for the circuit simulations and layouts. We obtained the simulation margins of larger than $\pm$25％. For the tests of NDRO operations, we attached the three DC/SFQ circuits and two SFQ/DC circuits to the NDRO circuit. In tests, we used an input frequency of 1 KHz to generate SFQ Pulses from DC/SFQ circuit. We measured the operation bias margin of NDRO to be $\pm$15％. The circuit was measured at the liquid helium temperature.

We have designed and simulated an 1-bit ALU (Arithmetic Logic Unit) by using a half adder. An ALU is the part of a computer processor that carries out arithmetic and logic operations on the operands in computer instruction words. The designed ALU had limited operation functions of OR, AND, XOR, and ADD. It had a pipeline structure. We constructed an 1-bit ALU by using only one half adder and three control switches. We designed the control switches in two ways, dc switch and NDRO (Non Destructive Read Out) switch. We used dc switches because they were simple to use. NDRO pulse switches were used because they can be easily controlled by control signals of SET and RESET and show fast response time. The simulation results showed that designed circuits operate correctly and the circuit minimum margins were ＋/-27%. In this work, we used simulation tools of XIC and WRSPICE. The circuit layouts were also performed. The circuits are being fabricated.

This paper describes the structure modeling and operation characteristics of MFMIS(metal-ferroelectric-metal-insulator-semiconductor) device using the Tsuprem4 which is a semiconductor device tool by Avanti. MFMIS device is being studied for nonvolatile memory application at various semiconductor laboratory but it is difficult to fabricate and analyze MFMIS devices using the semiconductor simulation tool: Tsuprem4, medici and etc. So the new library and new materials parameters for adjusting ferroelectric material and platinum electrodes in the tools are studied. In this paper structural model and operation characteristics of MFMIS devices are measured, which can be easily adopted to analysis of MFMIS device for nonvolatile memory device application.

RF magnetron sputtering 법으로 T $a_2$ $O_{5}$ 세라믹 타겟과 S $r_2$N $b_2$ $O_{7}$ 세라믹 타겟을 동시 sputtering하여 저유전율 S $r_2$(T $a_{1-x}$ , N $b_{x}$)$_2$ $O_{7}$(STNO) 박막을 p-type Si (100) 기판 위에 증착하여 NDRO 강유전체 메모리 (Non-destructive read out ferro-electric random access memory)에 사용되는 Pt/STNO/Si (MFS) 구조의 응용 가능성을 확인하였다. Sr$_2$Nb$_2$ $O_{7} (SN O)$ 타겟과 T $a_2$ $O_{5}$ 타겟의 출력의 비를 100w/100w, 70w/100w, 그리고 50w/100w로 조절하면서 x 값을 달리하여 조성을 변화시켰다. 성장된 박막을 8$50^{\circ}C$, 90$0^{\circ}C$, 그리고 9$50^{\circ}C$에서 1시간 동안 산소 분위기에서 열처리하였다. 조성과 열처리 온도에 따른 구조적 특징을 XRD에 의해 관찰하였으며 표면특성은 FE-SBM에 의해 관찰하였고, C-V 측정과 I-V 측정으로 박막의 전기적 특성을 조사하였다. SNO 타겟과 T $a_2$ $O_{5}$ 타켓의 출력비에 따른 STNO 박막의 성장 결과 70W/170W의 출력비에서 성장된 STNO박막에서 Ta의 양이 상대적 맡은 x=0.4였으며 가장 우수한 C-V 특성 및 누설 전류 특성을 보였다. 이 조성에서 성장된 STNO박막은 3-9V외 인가전압에서 메모리 윈도우 갑이 0.5-8.3V였고 누설전류밀도는 -6V의 인가전압에서 7.9$\times$10$_{-8}$A /$\textrm{cm}^2$였다.
