Abstract
For realizing the next-generation phase-change memories (PCM), it is required to reduce the fluctuation of resistance values in SET state. The Sb-rich phase of Ge2 Sb2 Te5 was proposed to fulfill the complete crystallization process at each SET programming and the PCM devices were fabricated by using the double-layered phase-change materials composed of Ge2 Sb2 Te5 and Ge18 Sb39 Te43. It was found that the SET resistances and their fluctuation were reduced as the increase of volume ratio of the Ge18 Sb39 Te43. We can conclude that the compositional modification into the Sb-rich phase can be a good way for improving the SET performances for the PCM applications. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
