Abstract

The invention provides a phase change memory cell and a producing method thereof, the phase change memory cell comprises a semiconductor substrate, a first electrode layer, a phase-change material layer, a second electrode layer, an extraction electrode and a high-resistance material layer, wherein the high-resistance material layer is used for preventing the phase-change material layer from being excessively corroded in the process of chemical mechanical polishing, the resistance of the high-resistance material layer is at least ten times of or above that of the phase-change material layer, the phase-change material layer can be prevented from being excessively corroded in the process of chemical mechanical polishing and the memory performance and yield of the phase change memory cell are increased.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a phase-change storage technology, in particular to a phase-change storage unit introduced with high-resistance materials and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] Phase-change memory (PC-RAM) is a non-volatile semiconductor memory that has emerged in recent years. It is based on Ovshinsky's research in the late 1960s (Phys. Rev. Lett., 21, 1450-1453, 1968) and early 1970s ( Appl. Phys. Lett., 18, 254-257, 1971) put forward the idea that the phase-change film can be applied to the phase-change storage medium, and it is a storage device with low price and stable performance. Phase-change memory can be made on a silicon wafer substrate, and its key materials are recordable phase-change films, heating electrode materials, heat insulating materials, and lead-out electrode materials. The basic principle of phase change memory is to use electric pulse signal to act on the device unit, so that the phase change...
