In bulk material, a-As$\sub$10/Ge/sub15/Te$\sub$75/s switching voltage range is above 100 volts. Our purposes in this gaudy are decreasing a switching threshold voltage, finding the properties of d.c., a.c. conduction, and the characterisitics of switching threshold voltage fur a-As$\sub$10/Ge$\sub$15/Te$\sub$75/. As the results, the d.c.and a.c. conductivities increase with temperature. From the data of conductivity, various electrical and physical properties are obtained experimentally. The switching threshold voltages decrease with increasing annealing temperature and time, but increase with increasing film thickness and distance of electrode for d.c. bias.

  • Amorphous As$_{10}$Ge$_{15}$ Te$_{75}$ device shows the memory switching characteristics under d.c. bias. In bulk material, a-As$_{10}$Ge$_{15}$ Te$_{75}$ switching threshold voltage (V$_{th}$) is very high (above 100 volts), but in the case of thin film, V$_{th}$ decreases to a few or ten a few volts. The characteristics of V$_{th}$ depends on the physical dimensions such as the thickness of thin film and the separation between d.c. electrodes, and the annealing conditions. The switching threshold voltage decreases exponentially with increasing annealing temperature and annealing time, but increases linearly with the thickness of thin film and exponentially with increasing the separation between d.c. electrodes. The desirable low switching threshold voltage, therefore, can be obtained by the stabilization through annealing and changing physical dimensions.imensions.sions.

  • For preventing a sneak current in the 3D cross-point array, the selection device is essentially necessary and an n-MOSFET has been used for the selection device. However, the three-terminal electrodes of n-MOSFET make to achieve a high density of a cross-point array difficult. As a solution, using a selector having two terminal electrodes has been intensively researched. We presented that the CuGeS2/GeS2-based super-linear-threshold-switching (SLTS) selector device with the insertion of optimal TiN liner thickness exhibited outstanding electrical characteristics and reliability. The dependency of electrical characteristics and reliability on various TiN liner thicknesses were investigated. In addition, the principles of reliability and electrical characteristics improvement were understood through the energy dispersive spectroscopy elemental mapping and line profile of Cu. The adequate amount of Cu distributed in GeS2 resistive switching layer is a key factor to achieve excellent electrical characteristics and reliability for an ultra-high-density 3D cross-point array cell.

  • Amorphous semiconductor from As 30 Te 48 Ge 10 Si 12 was prepared, and studied electron microscopy, X-ray analysis and resistivity measurement. It's resistivity is 1.56*10$^{6}$ .ohm.-cm when small ampule is used for preparing sample it is found that no phase separation has occurced by electron microscopy, and that phase transition temperature is 232.deg. C by differential Thermal Analysis. The specimen showed threshold switching that the low resistance state occur at critical electric field and the resistance recover at low applied field. Critical electric field of the switching is 10$^{5}$ V/cm at room temperature. Threshold voltage secreace exponentially with increasing ambient temperature and at that each voltage resistance of the switching device increase exponentially. According to the series resistance and applied vottage current slope on the V-I curve is varied. When applied voltage is decreased after switching, the resistance of the switching device is increased. By this result the origin of the switching is the Joule's heating.

  • 두 가지 $N_2$ 프로세스(성장 중 반응성 질소 그리고 질소 플라즈마 경화)에 의해 특별히 개선된 AsGeTeS 위에 만들어진 문턱 스위칭 소자를 제시하고자 한다. 적층과 열적 안정적인 소자 구조가 가능한 두 스텝 프로세스에서의 질소의 사용은 나노급 배열 회로의 응용에서의 스위치와 메모리 소자의 집적을 가능하게 한다. 이것의 좋은 문턱 스위칭 특성에도 불구하고 AsTeGeSi 기반의 스위치는 높은 온도에서의 신뢰성 있는 저항 메모리 적용에 중요한 요소를 가진다. 이것은 보통 Te의 농도 변화에 기인한다. 그러나 chalconitride 스위치(AsTeGeSiN)은 $30{\times}30(nm^2)$ 셀에서 $1.1{\times}10^7A/cm^2$가 넘는 높은 전류 농도를 갖는 높은 온도 안정성을 보여준다. 스위치의 반복 능력은 $10^8$번을 넘어선다. 더하여 AsTeGeSiN 선택 소자를 가진 TaOx 저항성 메모리를 사용한 1 스위치-1저항으로 구성된 메모리 셀을 시연하였다.

  • We fabricated TFT devices with the GeSe channel. A single device consists of a Pt source and drain, a Ti glue layer and a GeSe chalcogenide channel layer on SiO2/Si substrate which worked as the gate. We confirmed the drain current with variations of gate bias and channel size. The I-V curves of the switching device are shown in Fig. 1. The channel of the device always contains amorphous state, but can be programmed into two states with different threshold voltages (Vth). In each state, the device shows a normal Ovonic switching behavior. Below Vth (OFF state), the current is low, but once the biasing voltage is greater than Vth (ON state), the current increases dramatically and the ON-OFF ratio is high. Based on the experiments, we draw the conclusion that the gate voltage can enhance the drain current, and the electric field by the drain voltage affects the amorphous-amorphous transition. The switching device always contains the amorphous state and never exhibits the Ohmic behavior of the crystalline state.

  • Ge-Si-Te 비정질기억소자에서 기억스위칭을 여러가지 소자의 두께와 온도에 의해 변화되는 량으로 관찰하였다. 주어진 두께에서 문턱전압의 분포는 진성스위칭동작기구에 기여하는 강한 피크를 이루었다. 두께와 Vth의 좌표계에서 두께가 감소하면 문턱전압은 낮아지며 스위칭전계는 증가함을 보였다. 또한 문턱전압은 온도가 증가함에 따라 낮아짐을 알수있었으므로 Tg이하의 온도범위에서는 문턱전안을 낮출수있다는 사실을 보였다.

  • In this work, the electrical bistability of an organic CT complex is demonstrated and the possible switching mechanism is proposed. 2,9-Dimethyl-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (BCP) and tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ) are used as an organic donor and acceptor, respectively, and poly-methamethylacrylate (PMMA) is used as a polymeric matrix for spin-coating. A device with the Al/($Al_2O_3$)/PMMA:BCP:TCNQ[1:1:0.5 wt%]/Al configuration demonstrated bistable and switching characteristics similar to Ovshinsky switching with a low threshold voltage and a high ON/OFF ratio. An analysis of the current-voltage curves of the device suggested that electrical switching took place due to the charge transfer mechanism.
