    摘要: A recording layer 52 made of a chalcogenide material which stores a high-resistance state of a high electrical resistance value and a low-resistance state of a low electrical resistance value is used as a memory element RM in a memory cell region, and it is formed so that a concentration of Ga or In of a first layer 52a positioned on a lower electrode TP side of the recording layer 52 is higher than the corresponding concentration of a second layer 52b positioned on an upper electrode 53 side. For example, the recording layer is formed so that a content of Ga or In of the second layer is 5 atomic % or more smaller than that of the first layer. Also, a circuit which can reverse the voltage polarity between the upper electrode and the lower electrode in a set operation and a reset operation is provided.

    摘要: On an insulating film (31) in which a plug (35) is embedded, a second component releasing region (45) made of a first component and a second component, a solid electrolyte region (46) made of chalcogenide and an upper electrode region (47) are sequentially formed. The second component releasing region (45) made of a first component and a second component is composed of dome-shaped electrode portions (43) and an insulating film (44) burying the peripheries of the electrode portions (43), and at least one electrode portion (43) exists on the plug (34). The electrode portion (43) is composed of a first portion made of the first component such as tantalum oxide that is stable even when electric field is applied thereto and a second portion made of the second component such as copper or silver that is easily diffused in the solid electrolyte region (42) and moves therein by the application of an electric field. The second component supplied from the electrode portion (43) moves in the solid electrolyte region (46), thereby storing the information.

    摘要: On an insulating film (41) in which a plug (43) as a lower electrode is embedded, a laminated layer pattern of an insulating film (51) made of tantalum oxide, a recording layer (52) made of Ge—Sb—Te based chalcogenide to which indium is introduced and an upper electrode film (53) made of tungsten or tungsten alloy is formed, thereby forming a phase change memory. By interposing the insulating film (51) between the recording layer (52) and the plug (43), an effect of reducing programming current of a phase change memory and an effect of preventing peeling of the recording layer (52) can be achieved. Further, by using the Ge—Sb—Te based chalcogenide to which indium is introduced as the recording layer (52), the difference in work function between the insulating film (51) and the recording layer (52) is increased, and the programming voltage of the phase change memory can be reduced.
