  • low power Crossbar Switch with two varistor selected complementary atom Switch 2v 1cas via Switch for nonvolatile fpga
    IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices, 2019
    Co-Authors: Naoki Banno, Noriyuki Iguchi, Toshitsugu Sakamoto, Hidetoshi Onodera, Hiroyuki Ochi, K. Okamoto, Masanori Hashimoto, Tadahiko Sugibayashi, Munehiro Tada
    Abstract:

    A nonvolatile and programmable routing Switch featuring two-varistor selected complementary atom Switch (2V-1CAS also known as via-Switch) is evaluated. The a-Si/SiN/a-Si varistor as a selector for the atom Switch shows superior nonlinear current–voltage characteristics with high selectivity of ~105, which originates from the staircase barrier height in the layers. The two control lines connected to the varistors realize multiple fan-outs of the Crossbar Switch without select transistors. The $50\,\,\sf \times20$ Crossbar Switch block is demonstrated, where the atom Switch is placed at each cross point and programmed through the varistors. The developed via-Switch Crossbar Switch is a strong candidate for achieving energy-efficient nonvolatile field-programmable gate array in the Internet-of-Things applications.

  • characterization of chalcogenide selectors for Crossbar Switch used in nonvolatile fpga
    IEEE Silicon Nanoelectronics Workshop, 2019
    Co-Authors: Hideaki Numata, Naoki Banno, Noriyuki Iguchi, Toshitsugu Sakamoto, Hiromitsu Hada, K. Okamoto, Masanori Hashimoto, Tadahiko Sugibayashi, Munehiro Tada
    Abstract:

    Sputter deposited Ge x Se 1−x films are characterized, prior to device fabrication for a selector. A Se-rich film has GeSe 4/2 tetrahedral structure and higher crystallization temperature than Ge-rich films. Printed Ag-paste electrodes are used for I-V measurement and an amorphous Se-rich Ge x Se 1−x film shows the good Switching property for the selector with an on/off ratio of 4.8 × 104.

  • a novel two varistors a si sin a si selected complementary atom Switch 2v 1cas for nonvolatile Crossbar Switch with multiple fan outs
    International Electron Devices Meeting, 2015
    Co-Authors: Naoki Banno, Munehiro Tada, Noriyuki Iguchi, Toshitsugu Sakamoto, Makoto Miyamura, Yukihide Tsuji, Hiromitsu Hada, Hiroyuki Ochi, K. Okamoto, Hidetoshi Onodera
    Abstract:

    A nonvolatile and compact Switch realizing multiple fan-outs of a Crossbar Switch for programmable logic devices (PLDs) has been newly developed by using two-varistors selected complementary atom Switch (2V-1CAS). The two control lines connected to the varistors realize the accurate programming of each cross-point without select transistors. The novel nitrogen-modulated, TiN/a-Si/SiN/a-Si/TiN varistor shows superior nonlinear (NL) characteristic of ∼105, which are successfully stacked on the top of CAS with dual-hard mask (DHM) process. The developed 2V-1CAS (18F2) gives a promising Switch block (SB) used for energy-efficient, nonvolatile PLDs.

  • polymer solid electrolyte Switch embedded on cmos for nonvolatile Crossbar Switch
    IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices, 2011
    Co-Authors: Munehiro Tada, Naoki Banno, Toshitsugu Sakamoto, Makoto Miyamura, K. Okamoto, Hiromitsu Hada
    Abstract:

    A polymer solid-electrolyte (PSE) Switch has been embedded in a 90-nm-node CMOS featuring a forming-less programming and extremely high on/off ratio of 105. A fast programming of 10 ns is also demonstrated for 50-nmΦ 1 k-b array by introducing the PSE Switches integrated with a fully logic compatible process below 350°C. A high free volume in the PSE is supposed to result in the smooth formation of the Cu bridge without destroying the electrolyte, thereby also resulting in forming-less programming and high breakdown voltage. High disturbance reliability (T50; 50% fail) is extracted to be over 10 years at operation condition. The improved Switching characteristics enable us to accurately program the Crossbar circuit in a practical scale (32 × 32) without cell transistors. The developed Switch is a strong candidate for realizing a low-power and low-cost nonvolatile programmable logic.

  • nonvolatile Crossbar Switch using hbox tio _ x hbox tasio _ y solid electrolyte
    IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices, 2010
    Co-Authors: Munehiro Tada, Naoki Banno, Toshitsugu Sakamoto, Hiromitsu Hada, Masakazu Aono, N Kasai
    Abstract:

    A nonvolatile Crossbar Switch using a dual-layered TiOx/TaSiOy solid electrolyte, "NanoBridge," has been developed. NanoBridge is scalable to 50 nm and programmed at low voltage while keeping a low ON-resistance. The high compatibility with a back-end-of-line processing for CMOS integrated circuits is achieved by using the dual-layered TiOx/TaSiOy solid electrolyte, in which a barrier (Ti) is inserted on Cu and changes to an oxide during the subsequent process step. TiOx has the double role of preventing Cu oxidation during TaSiOy deposition and acting as a solid electrolyte itself. A resistive-change characteristic is investigated in terms of the inserted barrier dependence. At an optimal barrier insertion, the integrated Switch shows bipolar Switching characteristics with a high OFF-/ON-resistance ratio of 106. The developed device is applied to a 4 × 4 Crossbar Switch integrated with the CMOS circuit. The Crossbar Switch is configured without select transistors and transfers signals properly.

    Co-Authors: Naoki Banno, Noriyuki Iguchi, Toshitsugu Sakamoto, Hiromitsu Hada, Hidetoshi Onodera, Hiroyuki Ochi, K. Okamoto, Masanori Hashimoto, M Tilda, Tadahiko Sugibayashi
    Abstract:

    A large scale, 50×20 Crossbar Switch block (CSB) is newly developed for a nonvolatile, highly-dense reconfigurable logic. A compact two-varistors selected complementary atom Switch (a.k.a. via-Switch) is placed at each cross-point, in which the two control lines connected to the varistors can realize the multiple fan-outs without select transistors. The improved a-Si/SiN/a-Si varistor with a novel triple layered SiN shows superior nonlinearity (NL) of 1.1×105 with J max =1.63MA/cm2 while keeping very low static power of 0.2μW for the CSB. The developed CSB is also applicable for nonvolatile configuration memory for look up tables (LUTs) as well as routing Switches used in low power reconfigurable logic.

  • scalable multicast hybrid broadband Crossbar wavelength selective Switch proposal and analysis
    Optics Letters, 2021
    Co-Authors: Akhilesh S P Khope, A A M Saleh, Rod C Alferness, Roger Helkey, Songtao Liu, Sairaj Khope, John E Bowers
    Abstract:

    In this Letter, we present a new hybrid broadband-Crossbar Switching network that can Switch multiple wavelengths on demand and can also multicast. This Switch fabric is an improvement over our previous design in both Switch footprint and power consumption, as it reduces the number of Switching elements by approximately 50%. We compare the Switch loss and crosstalk with that of a multiwavelength selective Crossbar Switch. We also comment on fabrication tolerance of second-order ring resonators based on experimental results of 64 second-order ring resonators, and more than 250 heaters.

  • multi wavelength selective Crossbar Switch

    Co-Authors: Akhilesh S P Khope, Andrew M Netherton, Mitra Saeidi, Yuan Liu, Zeyu Zhang, Yujie Xia, Garey Fleeman, Alexander Spott, Sergio Pinna, Clint L Schow
    Abstract:

    Here we demonstrate an 8x4 multi-wavelength selective ring resonator based Crossbar Switch matrix implemented in a 220-nm silicon photonics foundry for interconnecting electronic packet Switches in scalable data centers. This Switch design can dynamically assign up to two wavelength channels for any port-port connection, providing almost full connectivity with significant reduction in latency, cost and complexity. The Switch unit cell insertion loss was measured at 0.8 dB, with an out-of-band rejection of 32 dB at 400 GHz channel separation. All the ring resonator heaters were thermally tuned, with heaters controlled by a custom 64-channel DAC driver. Detailed measurements on the whole Switch showed standard deviation of 2 dB in losses across different paths, standard deviation of 0.33 nm in resonant wavelength and standard deviation of 0.01 nm/mW in ring heater tuning efficiency. Data transmission experiments at 40 Gbps showed negligible penalty due to crosstalk paths through the Switch.
