  • Abstract
    For the prospects on future semiconductor memory, the key technical limits of future technology scaling in conventional memories and the directions to overcome the problems are reviewed. In addition, we reviewed the technical challenges and opportunities of emerging new memories such as FRAM (ferroelectric RAM), MRAM (magnetic RAM) and PRAM (phase-change RAM) which has been recently focused as candidates for idea memory which can solve the problems of conventional memories.
