Effect of Silicon Doping in B-Te (B4Te6) Binary Ovonic Threshold Switch System

Sanghyun Ban et al.

Summary: This study comprehensively investigated the effect of Si doping on a boron-tellurium based binary ovonic threshold switch (OTS). Si doping improved the off-leakage current, drift characteristics, and threshold voltage of the OTS. Raman spectroscopy revealed the mechanism behind the electrical changes caused by Si doping. Optical bandgap and X-ray diffraction analysis confirmed the improvement in performance due to Si doping.

Controllable Threshold Voltage ( $V_{th}$ ) Drift in Ovonic Threshold Switch Devices Under a High-Frequency Continuous Operation

Ziqi Chen et al.

Summary: This study investigates the dependence of the threshold voltage V$_{th}$ on the falling edge of prior pulses in a Te-based OTS device operating at high frequency. The results show that V$_{th}$ follows a Weibull distribution in the pulse sequence and the distribution drifts nonmonotonically with the pulse falling edge. The drift tendency of V$_{th}$ distribution is found to depend on the device area. Furthermore, the study reveals that the V$_{th}$ drift in continuous device operation is controllable and results from a combination of heat accumulation and the recovery process.

Relaxation Oscillation Effect of the Ovonic Threshold Switch on the SET Characteristics of Phase-Change Memory in Cross-Point Structure

Seok Man Hong et al.

Summary: This letter discusses the impact of OTS relaxation oscillation effect on PCM, showing that when the current is below hold current, it may increase the fail bit rate of RESET-to-SET transition. Experimental results indicate that current oscillation can lead to unstable current supply for crystallization and even induce partial amorphization.

Performance Improvement of GeTex-Based Ovonic Threshold Switching Selector by C Doping

Lun Wang et al.

Summary: In this study, a C-doped GeTex Ovonic threshold switching (OTS) selector with a via-hole structure was fabricated, showing comparable performance to commercial GeSe-based selectors. The selector demonstrated low off-current, low threshold voltage, a large voltage window, high selectivity, satisfactory endurance, and fast operating speed. Additionally, the selector exhibited self-limited on-current characteristics, with reasons behind the off-current reduction and consistency improvement by C doping studied through First-principles calculations.

Employing Weibull Analysis and Weakest Link Theory to Resolve Crystalline Silicon PV Cell Strength Between Bare Cells and Reduced- and Full-Sized Modules

Nick Bosco et al.

Summary: Experimental results show that the strength of a cell decreases once packaged into a module, with flaws at the cell's edge surface being the limiting factor. Smaller modules need to be loaded to a higher level compared to full-sized modules to achieve an equivalent probability of cell fracture.

Understanding of forming and switching mechanism using trap distribution model for ovonic threshold switch device

Sangmin Lee et al.

Summary: This study investigates the electrical characteristics of a W/Si-Te-As-Ge/W ovonic threshold switch (OTS) and reveals that the forming process of the OTS generates a metastable filamentary conductive path with a statistical nature, affecting subsequent conduction and threshold switching dynamics. By applying a hot forming technique to control residual traps, the off current decreases and the threshold voltage increases.
