Significant reduction of the RESET and SET currents and of the energy required to switch the PCM cells are demonstrated. In addition, compared with pure GST reference cells, the presence of the HfO<sub>2</sub> layer leads to an enhanced endurance (>10<sup>8</sup> cycles) and an improved data-retention (ten years at 172°C). Using cross-sectional TEM-Energy Dispersive X-Ray (EDX) analyses and technology computer-aided design simulations, the decreases of the programming currents and energy are explained through the reduction of the PCM cell active area, due to the creation of conductive paths in the HfO<sub>2</sub> layer during the initial forming procedure. Electrical measurements and modeling of the forming procedure indicate that the size of the conductive paths is controlled by the maximum current flowing through the PCM cells during the current overshoot of the forming procedure.</div> </div> <div class='row'> <div class='leftDiv labelDiv col-xs-4 col-sm-2 fullRecLabelEnglish'>Keywords : </div><div class='valueDiv leftDirection leftAlign col-xs-8 col-sm-10 fullRecValueEnglish'>IV-VI semiconductors; X-ray chemical analysis; antimony compounds; germanium compounds; hafnium compounds; phase change materials; phase change memories; technology CAD (electronics); transmission electron microscopy; EDX analysis; GST reference cell; Ge<sub>2</sub>Sb<sub>2</sub>Te<sub>5</sub>; HfO<sub>2</sub>; PCM cell active area reduction; RESET current; conductive path; cross-sectional TEM-energy dispersive X-ray analysis; data-retention; electrical measurement; forming procedure modeling; phase-change material; phase-change memory; programming current; technology computer-aided design simulation; temperature 172 C; thin interfacial layer; tungsten plug; Enhanced data-retention; RESET current reduction; interface engineering phase-change memory (PCM);</div> </div> <div class='row'> <div class='leftDiv labelDiv col-xs-4 col-sm-2 fullRecLabelEnglish'>fLanguage : </div><div class='valueDiv leftDirection leftAlign col-xs-8 col-sm-10 fullRecValueEnglish'>English</div> </div> <div class='row'> <div class='leftDiv labelDiv col-xs-4 col-sm-2 fullRecLabelEnglish'>Journal_Title : </div><div class='valueDiv leftDirection leftAlign col-xs-8 col-sm-10 fullRecValueEnglish'>Electron Devices, IEEE Transactions on</div> </div> <div class='row'> <div class='leftDiv labelDiv col-xs-4 col-sm-2 fullRecLabelEnglish'>Publisher : </div><div class='valueDiv leftDirection leftAlign col-xs-8 col-sm-10 fullRecValueEnglish'>ieee</div> </div> <div class='row'> <div class='leftDiv labelDiv col-xs-4 col-sm-2 fullRecLabelEnglish'>ISSN : </div><div class='valueDiv leftDirection leftAlign col-xs-8 col-sm-10 fullRecValueEnglish'>0018-9383</div> </div> <div class='row'> <div class='leftDiv labelDiv col-xs-4 col-sm-2 fullRecLabelEnglish'>Type : </div><div class='valueDiv leftDirection leftAlign col-xs-8 col-sm-10 fullRecValueEnglish'>jour</div> </div> <div class='row'> <div class='leftDiv labelDiv col-xs-4 col-sm-2 fullRecLabelEnglish'>DOI : </div><div class='valueDiv leftDirection leftAlign col-xs-8 col-sm-10 fullRecValueEnglish'>10.1109/TED.2013.2264323</div> </div> <div class='row'> <div class='leftDiv labelDiv col-xs-4 col-sm-2 fullRecLabelEnglish'>Filename : </div><div class='valueDiv leftDirection leftAlign col-xs-8 col-sm-10 fullRecValueEnglish'>6529125</div> </div> <div class='row'> <div class='leftDiv labelDiv col-xs-4 col-sm-2 fullRecLabelEnglish'>Link To Document : </div><div class='valueDiv leftDirection leftAlign fullRecValueEnglish col-xs-8 col-sm-10'><a href='https://search.ricest.ac.ir/dl/search/defaultta.aspx?DTC=49&DC=1762940' target='_blank'>https://search.ricest.ac.ir/dl/search/defaultta.aspx?DTC=49&DC=1762940</a></div> </div> </div> <div class='leftDiv labelDiv leftAlign backLinkEnglish'><a href='javascript:history.back()'><img src='../CSS/Back.png' class='backImage' alt=$
