Abstract
Provided is a content-addressable memory. The content-addressable memory may include a memory cell connected to a match line, a word line, and a search line, and the memory cell includes a first channel layer and a second channel layer doped with different dopants.
Claims20
A content-addressable memory comprising:
- a match line extending in a first direction;
- a word line spaced apart from the match line, the word line extending parallel to the first direction;
- a search line spaced apart from the match line and the word line;
- and
- a plurality of memory cells respectively connected to the match line, the word line, and the search line,
- wherein at least one of the plurality of memory cells includes
- a source electrode and a drain electrode spaced apart from each other,
- a first channel layer and a second channel layer doped with different dopants, the first channel layer and the second channel layer between the source electrode and the drain electrode such that a first end of the first channel layer and a first end of the second channel layer contact the source electrode and a second end of the first channel layer and a second end of the second channel layer contact the drain electrode, and
- a gate electrode spaced apart from all of the first channel layer, the second channel layer, the source electrode, and the drain electrode.
