Vertical silicon nanowires for nonvolatile memory devices

Friday, December 23, 2011 - 10:31 in Physics & Chemistry

As electronic devices become smaller and more sophisticated, the search for compact nonvolatile memory becomes increasingly important. However, conventional silicon technologies, such as complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) and floating gate flash memory, are fast reaching their scaling limit. Further miniaturization could seriously affect their performance and stability.
