MICROELECTRONIC DEVICE, STRUCTURE, AND SYSTEM, INCLUDING A MEMORY STRUCTURE HAVING A VARIABLE PROGRAMMABLE PROPERTY AND METHOD OF FORMING THE SAME

摘要

A microelectronic programmable structure suitable for storing information and a method of forming and programming the structure are disclosed. The programmable structure generally includes an ion conductor and a plurality of electrodes. Electrical properties of the structure may be altered by applying energy to the structure, and thus information may be stored using the structure.
