Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of memory, and in particular relates to a resistive variable memory and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Memory undoubtedly occupies a very important position in today's information age. With the continuous progress of semiconductor technology, resistance random access memory (RRAM) is getting more and more attention. RRAM has technical advantages such as simple preparation process, high density, high integration, fast programming speed, reliable and stable performance, low energy consumption and low operating voltage, and the most critical thing is that RRAM is compatible with CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) technology. Therefore, RRAM has become one of the most powerful contenders for next-generation memory. [0003] The core of resistive memory is a metal / medium / metal (MIM) structure, which relies on the resistive effect of the intermediate dielectric layer to r...
