Concealable physical unclonable functions using vertical NAND flash memory

Here, the authors propose a concealable PUF using V-NAND flash memory by generating PUF data through weak Gate-Induced-Drain-Leakage (GIDL) erase. The differences in doping depth among V-NAND strings arising from the fabrication cause variations in GIDL erase performance. The resulting V-NAND PUF demonstrated ideal security characteristics while maintaining 100% accuracy under variations in read count and temperature.

Scaling NAND flash to 20-nm node and beyond

Intel-Micron have recently introduced a scalable planar NAND cell for the 20nm technology [1]. Replacement of conventional wrap floating gate (FG) NAND memory cell with a High-K/Metal gate planar cell that can scale to the 20nm node and beyond was a significant challenge and required comprehensive material and cell exploration and optimization. This paper discusses some of the fundamental cell design issues considered and addressed to arrive at this planar cell technology including the reasoning behind choosing the planar floating gate cell over the nano-crystal cell, and the nitride cell.
