摘要
The NFGM devices with SnO2 nano-particles on the p-type (100) silion-on-insulator wafers were fabricated and we analyzed the electrical characteristics such as subthreshold, threshold voltage shift and retention properties. The self-assembled SnO2 nanoparticles were created by chemical reaction between the polymer layers and 5-nm-thick Sn films. The SnO2 nano-particles had spherical shape with an average diameter of 15 nm and the particle density was 2.4 x 10(11) cm(-2). The electrons were charged into SnO2 nano-particles through SiO2 tunneling layer from channel of NFGM by using Fowler-Nordheim tunneling method. The memory windows of the fabricated NFGM maintained at 0.5 V after 10(3) S. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
