Select devices for memory cell applications |
摘要 |
Select devices for memory cell applications and methods of forming the same are described herein. As an example, one or more memory cells comprise a a select device structure including a two terminal select device having a current-voltage (I-V) profile associated therewith, and a non-ohmic device in series with the two terminal select device. The combined two terminal select device and non-ohmic device provide a composite I-V profile of the select device structure that includes a modified characteristic as compared to the I-V profile, and the modified characteristic is based on at least one operating voltage associated with the memory cell. |

1. A memory cell, comprising:
a select device structure including:
a two terminal select device having a current-voltage (I-V) profile associated therewith; anda non-ohmic device in series with the two terminal select device, wherein the combined two terminal select device and non-ohmic device provide a composite I-V profile of the select device structure that includes a modified characteristic as compared to the I-V profile; wherein the two terminal select device and the non-ohmic device are separate metal-semiconductor-metal (MSM) devices that share a common electrode; and wherein the modified characteristic is based on at least one operating voltage associated with the memory cell. |
