Heavy-ion induced single event upsets in phase-change memories

We analyzed the sensitivity of 45-nm phase change memory cells to neutrons and heavy ions. No errors have been recorded with neutrons with a terrestrial-like spectrum. With heavy ions, bit upsets have been observed at high incidence angle and high linear energy transfer, conditions possible only in space. Physical mechanisms have been investigated, concluding that the thermal spike model may explain the observed results.
