Abstract

The invention relates to a ferroelectric metal hetero-junction based memristor; wherein the memristor material-ferroelectric lithium niobate is prepared by a pulse laser deposition system; monocrystal LN target material (4) is fixed on a target platform (5) of the pulse laser deposition system, and is placed in a growth chamber (6) of a pulse laser deposition film-making system; the vacuum in the growth chamber is pumped to be below 0.8*10-4Pa, oxygen gas flows in, and the oxygen pressure is from 25 to 35Pa, the substrate temperature is heated from 600-650 DEG; a KrF excimer laser is started, and the deposition time is determined according to monopulse energy; in-situ 500-650 DEG annealing is carried out 20-90min; the film has spontaneous polarization and 180-degree domain boundary; the memristor ferroelectric lithium niobate film is clamped between two metal electrode films to form a memristor unit with a miniature sandwich structure; the device can be applied to a high-density low-energy-consumption nonvolatile resistance random access memory.

Description

1. Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of microelectronic materials, in particular to a ferroelectric material lithium niobate (LiNbO 3 , referred to as LN) and a memristor element based on a ferroelectric metal heterojunction structure. 2. Background technology [0002] In 1971, Professor Leon Chua of the University of California, Berkeley predicted theoretically that there should be a fourth circuit component other than resistors, capacitors, and inductors. Features and functions. The main feature of the memristor is that it can change the resistance state with the change of the applied electric quantity, thereby realizing the memory function. Such electronic components could open up the possibility of faster and more energy-efficient instant-on PCs, as well as analog computers and artificial neural networks that process information like the human brain. [0003] Thirty-seven years after the theoretical model of the memristor was proposed, Strukov ...
