    摘要: Methods for passivating a carbonic nanolayer (that is, material layers comprised of low dimensional carbon structures with delocalized electrons such as carbon nanotubes and nanoscopic graphene flecks) to prevent or otherwise limit the encroachment of another material layer are disclosed. In some embodiments, a sacrificial material is implanted within a porous carbonic nanolayer to fill in the voids within the porous carbonic nanolayer while one or more other material layers are applied over or alongside the carbonic nanolayer. Once the other material layers are in place, the sacrificial material is removed. In other embodiments, a non-sacrificial filler material (selected and deposited in such a way as to not impair the switching function of the carbonic nanolayer) is used to form a barrier layer within a carbonic nanolayer. In other embodiments, carbon structures are combined with and nanoscopic particles to limit the porosity of a carbonic nanolayer.

    摘要: NRAM arrays with nanotube blocks, traces and planes, and methods of making the same are disclosed. In some embodiments, a nanotube memory array includes a nanotube fabric layer disposed in electrical communication with first and second conductor layers. A memory operation circuit including a circuit for generating and applying a select signal on first and second conductor layers to induce a change in the resistance of the nanotube fabric layer between the first and second conductor layers is provided. At least two adjacent memory cells are formed in at least two selected cross sections of the nanotube fabric and conductor layers such that each memory cell is uniquely addressable and programmable. For each cell, a change in resistance corresponds to a change in an informational state of the memory cell. Some embodiments include bit lines, word lines, and reference lines. In some embodiments, 6F2 memory cell density is achieved.

    摘要: An electrical device includes a substrate; first and second active areas; first and second word lines disposed in a first plane; first and second bit lines in a second plane and in electrical communication with first and second active areas; and a reference line disposed in a third plane. A nanotube element disposed in a fourth plane is in electrical communication with first and second active areas and the reference line via electrical connections at a first surface of the nanotube element. The nanotube element includes first and second regions having resistance states that are independently adjustable in response to electrical stimuli, wherein the first and second regions nonvolatilely retain the resistance states. Arrays of such electrical devices can be formed as nonvolatile memory devices. Methods for fabricating such devices are also disclosed.
