    摘要: A nonvolatile programmable switch device using a phase-change memory device and a method of manufacturing the same are provided. The switch device includes a substrate, a first metal electrode layer disposed on the substrate and including a plurality of terminals, a phase-change material layer disposed on the substrate and having a self-heating channel structure, the phase-change material layer having a plurality of introduction regions electrically contacting the terminals of the first metal electrode layer and a channel region interposed between the introduction regions, an insulating layer disposed on the first metal electrode layer and the phase-change material layer, a via hole disposed on the first metal electrode layer, and a second metal electrode layer disposed to fill the via hole. The switch device performs memory operations using resistive heating of a phase-change material without an additional heater electrode, thereby minimizing thermal loss due to thermal conductivity of a metal electrode to reduce power consumption of the switch device.

    摘要: A phase change memory device and a method of fabricating the same are provided. A phase change material layer of the phase change memory device is formed of germanium (Ge)-antimony (Sb)-Tellurium (Te)-based Ge2Sb2+xTe5 (0.12≦x≦0.32), so that the crystalline state is determined as a stable single phase, not a mixed phase of a metastable phase and a stable phase, in phase transition between crystalline and amorphous states of a phase change material, and the phase transition according to increasing temperature directly transitions to the single stable phase from the amorphous state. As a result, set operation stability and distribution characteristics of set state resistances of the phase change memory device can be significantly enhanced, and an amorphous resistance can be maintained for a long time at a high temperature, i.e., around crystallization temperature, and thus reset operation stability and rewrite operation stability of the phase change memory device can be significantly enhanced.

    摘要: Disclosed is a medical tissue extraction instrument, which can allow an inspector to accurately locate a fine needle at a desired tissue extraction position without any need for assistance while assuring stable tissue extraction. The medical tissue extraction instrument includes a tissue extraction controller to control the pressure of a suction tube connected to a fine needle during extraction of tissue. The tissue extraction controller includes a suction pressure generator taking the form of a footboard and adapted to control a suction operation of the suction tube by being pushed downward.
