Abstract
A method for evaluating the thermal effects of 3D RRAM arrays and reducing thermal crosstalk, including the following steps: Step 1: calculating the temperature distribution in the array through 3D Fourier heat conduction equation; Step 2, selecting a heat transfer mode; Step 3, selecting an appropriate array structure; Step 4, analyzing the effect of position of programming device in the array on the temperature; Step 5, analyzing the thermal crosstalk effect in the array; Step 6, evaluating thermal effects and thermal crosstalk; Step 7, changing the array structure or modify operating parameters based on the evaluation results to reduce the thermal crosstalk. According to the method of the present invention, the influence of the position of the device on the temperature is analyzed according to the heat transfer mode of the 3D RRAM array, the thermal effect and the thermal crosstalk are evaluated, and the appropriate array structure and operating parameters are selected according to the evaluation result, which effectively improves the thermal stability of the device.
