Threshold switching selector based memory

Abstract:

Embodiments include a threshold switching selector. The threshold switching selector may include a threshold switching layer and a semiconductor layer between two electrodes. A memory cell may include the threshold switching selector coupled to a storage cell. The storage cell may be a PCRAM storage cell, a MRAM storage cell, or a RRAM storage cell. In addition, a RRAM device may include a RRAM storage cell, coupled to a threshold switching selector, where the threshold switching selector may include a threshold switching layer and a semiconductor layer, and the semiconductor layer of the threshold switching selector may be shared with the semiconductor layer of the RRAM storage cell.
