  • Publication number: 20240130251
    Abstract: A three-dimensional reservoir based on three-dimensional volatile memristors and a method for manufacturing the same. In the three-dimensional reservoir, a memory layer, a select layer, and an electrode layer in each via form a memristor which is a reservoir unit. The three-dimensional reservoir is formed based on a stacking structure and multiple vias. The three-dimensional reservoir is constructed by using virtual nodes generated from dynamic characteristics of the three-dimensional memristors. An interfacial memristor is first constructed, and its volatility is verified through electric tests. A vertical three-dimensional array is manufactured based on the volatile memristor. A dynamic characteristic of the memristor is adjusted through a Schottky barrier. Different layers in the three-dimensional reservoir correspond to different reservoirs, which are constructed by controlling memristors in the different layers, respectively.

The MTJ includes, from bottom to top, a ferromagnetic reference layer, a potential barrier tunneling layer and a ferromagnetic free layer. In the device, an energy potential well is formed in a middle portion of the ferromagnetic free layer by applying a voltage to the voltage control layer to control magnetic anisotropy, and a current is fed into either of the upper electrodes to drive generation of the magnetic domain walls and pin the magnetic domain walls to the potential well. After the voltage is removed, the potential well is lowered so that the magnetic domain walls are in a metastable state, thereby either a high resistance state or a low resistance state is randomly obtained.

  • Patent number: 11243701
    Abstract: The present invention provides a data write method and a solid-state drive array. The solid-state drive array is based on a RAID system and includes n solid-state drives. Before to-be-written data is written into the solid-state drive array, the to-be-written data is divided into n data blocks that are in a one-to-one correspondence with the n solid-state drives. After the n data blocks are all stored into the corresponding solid-state drives, FTL update of the n data blocks is performed, to complete write of the to-be-written data. If the solid-state drive array is powered off during storage of the n data blocks, because FTL update of the data blocks is not performed, all the n data blocks fail to be written into the solid-state drive array, thereby ensuring atomicity of write operations of the n data blocks.
