<p>Recording and erasing of data in PRAM have hitherto been performed based on a change in physical characteristics caused by primary phase-transformation of a crystalline state and an amorphous state of a chalcogen compound including Te which serves as a recording material. Since, however, a recording thin film is formed of a polycrystal but not a single crystal, a variation in resistance values occurs and a change in volume caused upon phase-transition has placed a limit on the number of times of readout of record. In one embodiment, the above problem is solved by preparing a solid memory having a superlattice structure of thin films including Ge and thin films including Sb. The solid memory can realize the number of times of repeated recording and erasing of 1015.</p> |
