In a method of producing a layer arrangement, a substantially carbon-comprising, electrically conductive carbon layer is formed. A protective layer is formed on the carbon layer. An electrically insulating layer is formed on the protective layer, the protective layer protecting the carbon layer from damage during the formation of the electrically insulating layer. Furthermore, a layer arrangement is provided, having a substantially carbon-comprising, electrically conductive carbon layer, a protective layer formed on the carbon layer, and an electrically insulating layer formed on the protective layer, the protective layer being used to avoid damage to the carbon layer by the electrically insulating layer.

An integrated circuit includes a memory cell with a resistance changing memory element. The resistance changing memory element includes a first electrode, a second electrode, and a resistivity changing material disposed between the first and second electrodes, where the resistivity changing material is configured to change resistive states in response to application of a voltage or current to the first and second electrodes. In addition, at least one of the first electrode and the second electrode comprises an insulator material including a self-assembled electrically conductive element formed within the insulator material. The self-assembled electrically conductive element formed within the insulator material remains stable throughout the operation of switching the resistivity changing material to different resistive states.
摘要:
Non-volatile storage elements having a P−/metal floating gate are disclosed herein. The floating gate may have a P− region near the tunnel oxide, and may have a metal region near the control gate. A P− region near the tunnel oxide helps provide good data retention. A metal region near the control gate helps to achieve a good coupling ratio between the control gate and floating gate. Therefore, programming of non-volatile storage elements is efficient. Also, erasing the non-volatile storage elements may be efficient. In some embodiments, having a P− region near the tunnel oxide (as opposed to a strongly doped p-type semiconductor) may improve erase efficiency relative to P+.

A memory device in a 3-D read and write memory includes memory cells. Each memory cell includes a resistance-switching memory element (RSME) in series with a steering element. The RSME has a resistance-switching layer, a conductive intermediate layer, and first and second electrodes at either end of the RSME. A breakdown layer is electrically between, and in series with, the second electrode and the intermediate layer. The breakdown layer maintains a resistance of at least about 1-10 MΩ while in a conductive state. In a set or reset operation of the memory cell, an ionic current flows in the resistance-switching layers, contributing to a switching mechanism. An electron flow, which does not contribute to the switching mechanism, is reduced due to scattering by the conductive intermediate layer, to avoid damage to the steering element. Particular materials and combinations of materials for the different layers of the RSME are provided.
