Abstract:
A 1T DRAM cell device having two or more heterojunction surfaces perpendicular to the channel length direction and a quantum well at the drain region side. The 1T DRAM cell device described herein may be driven by GIDL or band-to-band tunneling, so that low voltage and high speed operation can be performed, and retention time and read current margin can be dramatically increased. It can also be driven as a memory device in harsh environments with high temperatures. Furthermore, since the heterojunction surfaces can be formed by vertically stacking epitaxial layers on a semiconductor substrate such as silicon, the conventional CMOS process technology can be used, and the area occupied by the device can be reduced as much as possible without limiting the channel length.
