Non-volatile memory development trends and challenges

Non-volatile memory is one of the most important technologies of integrated circuits. It is widely used in various fields of information, aerospace/aerospace, military/defense, new energy and scientific research, and has a huge market. At present, the mainstream non-volatile memory technology—the “flash memory” based on floating-gate structure, has its size shrinking close to its physical limit, and it is difficult to continue to increase its storage density and performance to meet the demand for information storage and processing in the era of big data. This report will introduce the current status and challenges of the international and Chinese memory industry, the academic research situation of non-volatile memory and the research progress of microelectronics in this field.
