摘要
In this Letter, for the first time, one-memristor (1M)-based ternary-content-addressable memory (TCAM) with an ultradense 4F(2) cell area is proposed on a single reconfigurable TiN/hafnium zirconium oxide (HZO)/indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO)/TiN ferroelectric (FE) diode. By modulating the FE-polarization-controlled Schottky junction that exists at the interface, reconfigured P-N, N-P, and ohmic like junctions of the FE diodes were designed for '0', '1', and 'X' storage states in the TCAM cell, respectively. In addition to non-volatile FE polarization for data storage, ambipolar-like behavior induced by the symmetrical junction characteristics was obtained on the diodes for searching queries. Using both non-volatile and ambipolar-like characteristics, typical TCAM functions with a maximum driving on/off ratio of similar to 500 were confirmed experimentally on a single FE diode, indicating the great potential of this memory device in area-efficient artificial intelligence processors.
