Abstract :
A new device concept for a programmable switch employing a phase-change memory element was proposed, in which a unique four-terminal structure having two operating channels was so designed as to effectively separate two functions of programming and pass-gating. The proposed device was successfully fabricated, and its operational behaviors were demonstrated.
