摘要: Providing for improved sensing of non-volatile resistive memory to achieve higher sensing margins, is described herein. The sensing can leverage current-voltage characteristics of a volatile selector device within the resistive memory. A disclosed sensing process can comprise activating the selector device with an activation voltage, and then lowering the activation voltage to a holding voltage at which the selector device deactivates for an off-state memory cell, but remains active for an on-state memory cell. Accordingly, very high on-off ratio characteristics of the selector device can be employed for sensing the resistive memory, providing sensing margins not previously achievable for non-volatile memory.

摘要: A circuit component that exhibits a region of negative differential resistance includes: a first layer of material; and a second layer of material in contact with the first layer of material, the contact forming a first self-heating interface. The first self-heating interface is structured such that an electrical current flowing from the first layer of material to the second layer of material encounters an electrical impedance occurring at the first interface that is greater than any electrical impedance occurring in the first and second layers of material, wherein heating occurring at the first interface is dominated by Joule heating caused by the electrical impedance occurring at the first interface, and wherein the electrical impedance occurring at the first interface decreases with increasing temperature to induce a region of negative differential resistance.
