Abstract

The invention relates to a resistive random access memory and a method for improving a positive and negative current difference of the resistive random access memory. The resistive random access memory comprises a substrate, a first terminal electrode, a variable resistance medium layer and a second terminal electrode, wherein the first terminal electrode is arranged on the substrate and forms a good electric contact together with the substrate; the variable resistance medium layer is arranged at the left side or the upper part of the first terminal electrode; if the variable resistance medium layer is arranged at the left side of the first terminal electrode, the second terminal electrode is arranged at the left side of the variable resistance medium layer; if the variable resistance medium layer is arranged at the upper part of the first terminal electrode, the second terminal electrode is arranged at the upper part of the variable resistance medium layer; the variable resistance medium layer is a dual-layer variable resistance medium; and the dual-layer variable resistance medium is in a laminated structure formed by a first variable resistance layer and a second variable resistance layer. By plasma modification, defects are introduced into the medium or the medium surface, so that a negative current value is effectively suppressed; and the positive and negative current difference is greatly improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductor memory, in particular to a resistive variable memory and a method for increasing its positive and negative current difference. Background technique [0002] Resistive RAM (RRAM) is usually composed of a simple sandwich structure (electrode / storage medium / electrode). By applying an electrical signal, the resistance state of the storage material is changed to achieve a bistable storage function. With the development of technology, memory tends to adopt criss-cross three-dimensional integration in order to obtain higher storage density. However, crosstalk currents in this architecture can lead to misreading of stored information. Therefore, improving the positive and negative current difference (or rectification characteristics) of the RRAM and obtaining the nonlinearity of the current-voltage characteristics can better suppress the crosstalk current flowing through the low-resistance memory c...
