一种EEPROM存储单元的读出电流检测电路

针对电可擦除编程存储器(EEPROM)存储单元的读出电流需要被精确检测的问题,该文提出了一种对EEP-ROM存储单元进行工作电流检测的电路,该电路主要用电流镜来搭建,和读出电路中的灵敏放大器相连。在检测时用电流镜电路把灵放的读出电流镜像到电流检测的输出端。模拟结果显示,用这种检测电路来检测读出电流可以取得较高的精度(98.5%)。同时,电路本身结构简单,在实际中易实现。     

Growth of Ge Layer on Relaxed Ge-Rich SiGe by Ultrahigh Vacuum Chemical Vapor Deposition

The paper describes the growth of a germanium (Ge) film on a thin relaxed Ge-rich SiGe buffer. The thin Ge-rich SiGe buffer layer was achieved through a combination of ultrahigh vacuum chemical vapor deposition (UHVCVD) SiGe epitaxial growth and SiGe oxidation. A lower Ge content strained SiGe layer was first grown on the Si (001) substrate and then the Ge mole fraction was increased by oxidation. After removal of the surface oxide, a higher Ge content SiGe layer was grown and oxidized again. The Ge mole fraction was increased to 0.8 in the 50 nm thick SiGe layer. Finally a 150 nm thick pure Ge film was grown on the SiGe buffer layer using the UHVCVD system. This technique produces a much thinner buffer than the conventional compositionally graded relaxed SiGe method with the same order of magnitude threading dis- location density.
