Abstract :
We report the integration of 3D-stackable 1S1R passive crossbar RRAM arrays utilizing a Field Assisted Superlinear Threshold (FAST) selector. The sneak path issue in crossbar memory integration has been solved using the highest reported selectivity of 1010. Excellent selector performance is presented such as extremely sharp switching slope of <; 5mV/dec., selectivity of 1010, sub-50ns operations, > 100M endurance and processing temperature less than 300°C. Measurements on the 4Mb 1S1R crossbar array show that the sneak current is suppressed below 0.1nA, while maintaining 102 memory on/off ratio and > 106 selectivity during cycling, enabling high density memory applications.
