Abstract

<p>Flash memory with NAND structure (NAND flash memory) is widely used for mobile devices, cell phones, PC’s, and for storage devices in the internet-data-center recently. Conventional two-dimensional (2D) NAND flash memory has serious problems to realize the shrinkage of cell size beyond the 15 nm generation. In order to overcome the problems, two novel nano-technologies, namely Punch & Plug process and BiCS FLASH, have been developed. These innovations have resulted in commercially viable 3D flash memory, providing key technologies for fast, low-energy consumption and high-density memory devices. In this review, we discuss this state-of-the-art 3D flash memory technology.</p>
