A cross-point memory includes a plurality of memory devices, with each device comprising a memory layer between first and second address lines. In one preferred embodiment, the memory layer comprises an OTS (Ovonic Threshold Switch) film and an antifuse film. In another preferred embodiment, the memory layer comprises an OTS film having a first switch voltage (i.e. forming voltage V.sub.form) greater than all subsequent switch voltages (i.e. threshold voltage V.sub.th). The cross-point memory is preferably a three-dimensional one-time-programmable memory (3D-OTP), including horizontal 3D-OTP and vertical 3D-OTP

A multi-level cell (MLC) one-selector-one-resistor (1S1R) three-dimensional (3D) cross-point memory system includes at least one MLC 1S1R structure including a stacked arrangement of a phase change memory (PCM) cell and a threshold switch selector. An electrically conductive bit line is in electrical communication with the OTS selector, and an electrically conductive word line is in electrical communication with the PCM cell. A controller is in electrical communication with the bit line and the word line. The controller is configured to select at least one voltage pulse from a group of different voltage pulses comprising a read pulse, a partial set pulse, a set pulse, a partial reset pulse, and a reset pulse, and configured to deliver the selected at least one voltage pulse to the at least one MLC 1S1R structure.

Disclosed herein are quantum dot devices and techniques. In some embodiments, a quantum computing processing device may include a quantum well stack, an array of quantum dot gate electrodes above the quantum well stack, and an associated array of selectors above the array of quantum dot gate electrodes. The array of quantum dot gate electrodes and the array of selectors may each be arranged in a grid.

In some embodiments, the present disclosure relates to an integrated chip that includes one or more interconnect wires and vias arranged within one or more interconnect dielectric layers over a substrate. Further, a bottom electrode is disposed over the one or more interconnect wires and vias and comprises a first material having a first work function. A top electrode is disposed over the bottom electrode and comprises a second material having a second work function. The first material is different than the second material, and the first work function is different than the second work function. An anti-ferroelectric layer is disposed between the top and bottom electrodes.

Memristors, including memristors comprising a Schottky barrier, and related systems and methods are generally described.

A memory cell includes a bottom electrode, a memory element, spacers, a selector and a top electrode. The memory element is located on the bottom electrode and includes a first conductive layer, a second conductive layer and a storage layer. The first conductive layer is electrically connected to the bottom electrode. The second conductive layer is located on the first conductive layer, wherein a width of the first conductive layer is smaller than a width of the second conductive layer. The storage layer is located in between the first conductive layer and the second conductive layer. The spacers are located aside the second conductive layer and the storage layer. The selector is disposed on the spacers and electrically connected to the memory element. The top electrode is disposed on the selector.

The problem of forming top electrode vias that provide consistent results in devices that include resistance switching RAM cells of varying heights is solved using a dielectric composite that fills areas between resistance switching RAM cells and varies in height to align with the tops of both the taller and the shorter resistance switching RAM cells. An etch stop layer may be formed over the dielectric composite providing an equal thickness of etch-resistant dielectric over both taller and shorter resistance switching RAM cells. The dielectric composite causes the etch stop layer to extend laterally away from the resistance switching RAM cells to maintain separation between the via openings and the resistance switching RAM cell sides even when the openings are misaligned.

The present disclosure includes memory cell structures and method of forming the same. One such memory cell includes a first electrode having sidewalls angled less than 90 degrees in relation to a bottom surface of the first electrode, a second electrode, including an electrode contact portion of the second electrode, having sidewalls angled less than 90 degrees in relation to the bottom surface of the first electrode, wherein the second electrode is over the first electrode, and a storage element between the first electrode and the electrode contact portion of the second electrode.

Embodiments disclosed herein may relate to forming a base contact layout in a memory device.

The disclosed technology generally relates to integrated circuit devices, and in particular to cross-point memory arrays and methods for fabricating the same. Line stacks are formed, including a storage material line disposed over lower a conductive line. Upper conductive lines are formed over and crossing the line stacks, exposing portions of the line stacks between adjacent upper conductive lines. After forming the upper conductive lines, storage elements are formed at intersections between the lower conductive lines and the upper conductive lines by removing storage materials from exposed portions of the line stacks, such that each storage element is laterally surrounded by spaces. A continuous sealing material laterally surrounds each of the storage elements.
