Wordline Input Bias Scheme for Neural Network Implementation in 3D-NAND Flash by Hwiho Hwang, Gyeonghae Kim, Dayeon Yu, Hyungjin Kim

“…The approach leverages the velocity saturation effect in short-channel MOSFETs, which enables a linear increase in drain current with respect to gate voltage in the saturation region. A NAND flash array with a TANOS (TiN/Al₂O₃/Si₃N₄/SiO₂/poly-Si) gate stack was fabricated, and its electrical and reliability characteristics were evaluated. …”
