Abstract
Phase-change alloys AlSbTe were investigated formaterial and electrical properties. A peak crystallization temperature of 236°C was found with 16.7 at.% Al doping Sb3Te (AST-16.7%), which showed a 10-year data retention temperature up to 131°C and a melting point as low as 542°C. The phase-change memory device based on AST-16.7% showed good reversible switching characteristics as operation time below 100 ns and low power consumption. Importantly, dramatically rapid SET operation with a shortest pulse width of 7 ns was achieved.
