Abstract: The present application describes a crossbar memory array. The memory array includes a first array of parallel nanowires of a first material and a second array of parallel nanowires of a second material. The first and the second array are oriented at an angle with each other. The array further includes a plurality of nanostructures of non-crystalline silicon disposed between a nanowire of the first material and a nanowire of the second material at each intersection of the two arrays. The nanostructures form a resistive memory cell together with the nanowires of the first and second materials.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a counterfeit prevention paper and manufacturing method thereof, and more particularly to currency, securities, official document and several certificates, etc. The counterfeit prevention paper according to the present invention comprises a paper and a thermopaint layer which is formed on a paper and is discolored according to a temperature. The counterfeit prevention paper according to the present invention can detect easily a counterfeit by an unaided eye. Also, a function for preventing a counterfeit is not copied by a counterfeit device, thus the counterfeit prevent paper according to the present invention can improve a reliability of various official documents and several certificates, etc.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a non-volatile memory cell and a method of fabricating the same. The non-volatile memory cell according to the present invention comprises a substrate, a first oxide film formed over an active region of the substrate, a source and drain formed within the active region, a charge storage unit formed on the first oxide film, a second oxide film configured to surround the charge storage unit and formed on the first oxide film, and a gate formed to surround the second oxide film. According to the non-volatile memory cell and a cell array including the same in accordance with the present invention, the charge storage unit is fully surrounded by the gate or the gate line, thus a disturbance phenomenon that may occur due to the memory operation of cells formed in other neighboring gate or gate line can be minimized.

Abstract: Provided are a phase change memory device that can operate at low power and improve the scale of integration by reducing a contact area between a phase change material and a bottom electrode, and a method for fabricating the same. The phase change memory comprises a current source electrode, a phase change material layer, a plurality of carbon nanotube electrodes, and an insulation layer. The current source electrode supplies external current to a target. The phase change material layer is disposed to face the current source electrode in side direction. The carbon nanotube electrodes are disposed between the current source electrode and the phase change material layer. The insulation layer is formed outside the carbon nanotube electrodes and functions to reduce the loss of heat generated at the carbon nanotube electrodes.
