Abstract Forming and breaking a nanometer-sized conductive area are commonly accepted as the physical phenomenon involved in the switching mechanism of oxide resistive random access memories (OxRRAM). This study investigates a state-of-the-art OxRRAM device by in-situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Combining high spatial resolution obtained with a very small probe scanned over the area of interest of the sample and chemical analyses with electron energy loss spectroscopy, the local chemical state of the device can be compared before and after applying an electrical bias. This in-situ approach allows simultaneous TEM observation and memory cell operation. After the in-situ forming, a filamentary migration of titanium within the dielectric hafnium dioxide layer has been evidenced. This migration may be at the origin of the conductive path responsible for the low and high resistive states of the memory.

Laihunite that has distorted olivine-type structure with ferric and ferrous irons and ordered distribution of vacancies was first discovered in a high-grade metamorphosed banded iron formation (BIF) [1, 2]. The laihunite coexisting with fayalite (Fe-olivine), magnetite, quartz, ferrosilite, garnet and hedenbergite, formed in the process of oxidation of fayalite [2, 3]. The structure refinement of 1-layer laihunite shows P21/b symmetry and ordered distribution of vacancies in half M1 sites of olivine structure [2, 3]. Early high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) study and HRTEM image simulation of the 1-layer laihunite verified the structure refinement [4].Specimens of weakly oxidized fayalite and laihunite containing fayalite islands collected from Xiaolaihe and Menjiagou of Liaoning Province, NE China, have been studied using selected area electron diffraction (SAED), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS), and X-ray energy-dispersive spectroscopy.
