3 Need for an Access Device Access device needed in series with memory element Cut off current sneak paths that lead to incorrect sensing and wasted power Typically diodes used as access devices Could also use devices with highly non-linear I-V curves 2
4 Access Device for 3D Crosspoint Memory Basic Requirements High ON-state current density > 10 MA/cm 2 for PCM RESET Low OFF-state leakage ON/OFF ratio > 10 7 for large arrays BEOL-compatibility < 400 C processing for 3D memory with multi-layer stacking NVM memory element Access Device (AD) Bipolar operation (required for robust RRAM) à not possible with conventional diodes MIEC-based Access Devices satisfy all 4 criteria à ADs that could enable 3D for any low voltage NVM 3
