Abstract
A bulk FinFET-based unified-RAM (URAM) cell technology is demonstrated for the fusion of a nonvolatile-memory (NVM) and capacitorless 1T-DRAM. An oxide/nitride/oxide layer and a floating-body are combined to perform a URAM operation in a single transistor. A buried n-well technology for NMOS allows hole accumulation for the 1T-DRAM operation in a p-type bulk substrate. The bulk FinFET URAM offers a cost-effective and fully compatible process with a conventional FinFET SONOS, and it also expedites heat dissipation. Highly reliable NVM and high-speed 1T-DRAM operation are confirmed, and it was also verified that there is no disturbance between the two memory functions.
