Embodiments of the disclosure are in the field of advanced integrated circuit structure fabrication and, in particular, to memory devices having ferroelectric capacitors coupled between intersecting bitlines and wordlines. Other embodiments may be disclosed or claimed.

In one embodiment, a non-volatile memory apparatus includes memory tiles comprising a set of main memory tiles in rows and columns, a set of row termination tiles at the ends of the rows, and a set of column termination tiles at the ends of the columns. Each memory tile includes a plurality of decks, with each deck comprising bitlines, wordlines orthogonal to the bitlines, and memory cells between overlapping areas of the bitlines and the wordlines. The bitlines/wordlines include a set of bitlines/wordlines of a first layer that traverse row/column termination tiles and main memory tiles adjacent the row/column termination tiles, with each bitline/wordline of the set of bitlines/wordlines connected to another bitline of a second layer in the termination tile.

Disclosed is a semiconductor memory device including a substrate, a plurality of source lines extending in a first direction on the substrate, a plurality of word lines crossing the source lines and extending in a second direction different from the first direction, a plurality of bit lines crossing the source lines and the word lines and extending in a third direction different from the first direction and the second direction, and a plurality of memory cells disposed at intersections between the source lines, the word lines, and the bit lines. The first, second, and third directions are parallel to a top surface of the substrate.

A single-channel, single-poly floating gate (EEPROM-type) memristor including asymmetric source/drain-to-gate coupling and an asymmetric channel doping pattern. Asymmetric source/drain-to-gate coupling is achieved by configuring the drain, source and floating gate such that the gate-to-drain capacitance is greater than the gate-to-source capacitance. The asymmetric channel doping pattern is implemented by forming different drain-side and source-side doping portions (i.e., different N-type or P-type implant configurations and/or positions). The asymmetric channel doping pattern is preferably formed using standard CMOS implants (e.g., NLDD and P-type pocket implants). Multiple N-type and P-type implants may be selectively positioned to achieve a desired balance between program/erase speeds, reverse (read direction) threshold voltage and immunity to read-disturb and over-erase. A drain-side diode may be additionally used to suppress over-erase. A memory circuit including multiple two-terminal memristors disposed in a cross-point array is disclosed, which can be utilized, e.g., in a neuromorphic circuit.
