Abstract

Flash memory has become a ubiquitous solid-state memory device widely used in portable digital devices, computers and enterprise applications. The development of the information age has demanded improvements in memory speed and retention performance. Here we demonstrate an ultrafast non-volatile flash memory based on MoS2/hBN/multilayer graphene van der Waals heterostructures, which achieves an ultrafast writing/erasing speed of 20 ns through two-triangle-barrier modified Fowler–Nordheim tunnelling. Using detailed theoretical analysis and experimental verification, we postulate that a suitable barrier height, gate coupling ratio and clean interface are the main reasons for the breakthrough writing/erasing speed of our flash memory devices. Because of its non-volatility this ultrafast flash memory could provide the foundation for the next generation of high-speed non-volatile memory. MoS2/hBN/graphene van der Waals heterostructures with a clean interface and optimized barrier height and gate coupling ratio enable the realization of ultrafast non-volatile flash memory.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
