Problems solved by technology

[0005] In addition, the storage medium 130 is formed by using plasma treatment (plasmatreatment) or thermal annealing (thermal annealing) process in an oxygen environment, usually an insulating metal oxide layer without binary resistance characteristics is formed on the surface of the dielectric film, for example figure 1 The shown dielectric film 131 and insulating metal oxide layer 132, and the insulating metal oxide layer 132 will affect the storage performance of the storage medium 130, taking metal oxide Cu as an example, the dielectric film 131 is low-priced cuprous oxide (Cu 2 O), the insulating metal oxide layer 132 is high-priced copper oxide (CuO), Cu 2 O has a binary resistance characteristic, while CuO does not have a binary resistance characteristic. Therefore, before writing data (programming) to the memory cell, it is necessary to apply a relatively large voltage to break down the insulating metal oxide layer 132. This will have a negative impact on the reliability of the RRAM

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor manufacturing, in particular to a storage unit of a resistance memory and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] At present, the development of new storage technologies with low cost, high speed, high storage density, simple manufacturing and good compatibility with the current complementary metal oxide (CMOS) semiconductor integrated circuit process has attracted widespread attention worldwide. The memory technology of resistive random access memory (RRAM, referred to as resistive memory) based on metal oxides with resistive switching characteristics is currently the focus of development by many device manufacturers, because this technology can provide higher density, lower cost and lower power consumption non-volatile memory. The resistance value of the RRAM memory cell will change greatly after the pulse voltage is applied, and this resistance value can still be ma...
