Electronic memory devices, such as memristors, charge trap memory, and floating-gate memory, have been developed over the last decade. The use of polymers in electronic memory devices enables new opportunities, including easy-to-fabricate processes, mechanical flexibility, and neuromorphic applications. This review revisits recent efforts on polymer-based electronic memory developments. The versatile contributions of polymers for emerging memory devices are classified, providing a timely overview of such unconventional functionalities with a strong emphasis on the merits of polymer utilization. Furthermore, this review discusses the opportunities and challenges of polymer-based memory devices with respect to their device performance and stability for practical applications.

ABSTRACTCurrent research directions and recent advances in the area of semiconductor nanocrystal floating-gate memory devices are herein reviewed. Particular attention is placed on the advantages, limitations and perspectives of some of the principal new alternatives suggested for improving device performance and reliability. The attractive option of generating Si nanocrystal memories by ion-beam-synthesis (IBS) is discussed with emphasis on the ultra-low-energy (ULE) regime. Pertinent issues related to the fabrication of low-voltage memory cells and the integration of the ULE-IBS technique in manufactory environment are discussed. The effect on device performance of parasitic transistors that form at the channel corner of shallow trench isolated transistors is described in details. It is shown that such parasitic transistors lead to a substantial degradation of the electrical properties of the intended devices and dominates the memory behavior of deep submicronic cells.

Thin film transistors with nanoparticles silicon floating-gate are fabricated by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition. It should be noted that SiO2acts as both a tunneling and a blocking layer. Meanwhile, some np-Si dots are embedded within SiO2layers. The electrical characteristic of the devices are measured by semiconductor parameter analyzer at room temperature. These Thin film transistors show a good device performance with a high charge-carrier mobility of 33 cm2/vs and a large on/off ratio of 1.2×106. Moreover, the capability of written and erasing was demonstrated. This indicates that thin film transistors can be operated as rewritable nonvolatile floating gate memory devices.
