Abstract :
A novel double floating-gate unified memory device is experimentally demonstrated for the first time. The device can be used to store both volatile and nonvolatile memory states simultaneously. Simulations of scaled devices show that the device offers several advantages compared to conventional memory devices. Such a device could have a dramatic impact on next generation memory architectures.
