Abstract: | In this study, non-volatile memory effect was characterized using the single-transistor-based memory devices based on self-assembled gold nanoparticles (AuNP) as the charge trapping elements and atomic-layer deposited ZnO as the channel layer. The fabricated memory devices showed controllable and reliable threshold voltage shifts according to the program/erase operations that resulted from the charging/discharging of charge carriers in the charge trapping elements. Reliable non-volatile memory properties were also confirmed by the endurance and data retention measurements. The low temperature processes of the key device elements, i.e., AuNP charge trapping layer and ZnO channel layer, enable the use of this device structure to the transparent/flexible non-volatile memory applications in the near future. |
