An arrangement, a method and a system to read information stored in a layer of ferroelectric media. The arrangement includes a layer including a ferroelectric media having one or more ferroelectric domains holding bit charges, a domain corresponding to information; a probe having a tip, wherein the media and the tip are adapted to move relative to one another such that the tip scans the ferroelectric domains of the media while applying a contact force to the domains to generate a direct piezoelectric effect within the domains; and circuitry coupled to the tip and adapted to generate a signal in response to an electrical coupling between the tip and the domains while scanning the tip in contact with the domains, the signal corresponding to a readout signal for ferroelectric bit charges stored in the media

In one embodiment, the present invention includes an apparatus having a conductive storage medium to store information in the form of electrostatic charge. The conductive storage medium can be disposed in a non-conductive layer that is formed over a charge blocking layer, which in turn may be disposed over an electrode layer. In one embodiment, a barrier layer may be disposed over the non-conductive layer. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
摘要:
Methods for accelerating charge equilibrium in a non-volatile memory device using floating gate memory cells are disclosed. Memory devices and storage systems using charge equilibrium acceleration are also disclosed. In one such method, a programming pulse is applied to the word line to change an amount of charge stored on the floating gate of the memory cells being programmed. A reverse field pulse is then applied to the memory cell using only voltages greater than or equal to about 0 volts. The reverse field pulse accelerates charge equilibrium by moving any electrons trapped in the insulating oxide layers to a stable location so that the threshold voltage is stabilized. After the reverse field pulse, a program verify operation is performed and additional programming pulses and reverse field pulses are applied as needed to properly program the memory cell.

An apparatus may include a processor circuit a processor circuit to retrieve data from a non-volatile memory, and a multistrobe read module operable on the processor circuit to set a read operation to read a memory cell over a multiplicity of sense operations, where each sense operation is performed under a different sense condition. The multistrobe read module may be further operable to schedule a new sense operation to succeed a prior sense operation of the multiplicity of sense operations without recharge of the wordline when a value of one or more read condition is within a preset range. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.
