: In this work, the resistive switching characteristics of resistive random access memories (RRAMs) containing Sm2O3 and V2O5 films were investigated. All the RRAM structures made in this work showed stable resistive switching behavior. The High-Resistance State and Low-Resistance State of Resistive memory (RHRS/RLRS) ratio of the RRAM device containing a V2O5/Sm2O3 bilayer is one order of magnitude higher than that of the devices containing a single layer of V2O5 or Sm2O3. We also found that the stacking sequence of the Sm2O3 and V2O5 films in the bilayer structure can affect the switching features of the RRAM, causing them to exhibit both bipolar resistive switching (BRS) behavior and self-compliance behavior. The current conduction mechanisms of RRAM devices with different film structures were also discussed.

Resistive switching random access memory (RRAM) has attracted great attention due to its outstanding performance for the next generation non-volatile memory. However, the unexpected failure behaviors seriously hinder the further studies and applications of this new memory device. In this work, the bipolar resistive switching characteristics in Pt/CdS/Cu2O/FTO cells are investigated. The CdS inter-layer is used to suppress the failure behavior in set process. Comparing to the Pt/Cu2O/FTO cell, the switching process in Pt/CdS/Cu2O/FTO cell is not affected even at a high set voltage and the failure behavior is eliminated effectively. Therefore, this work proposes a feasible approach to solve the failure problem in RRAM.

Herein, Bi4Ti3O12 (BIT) ferroelectric thin films were fabricated into Au/BIT/LaNiO3/Si structures to demonstrate their memristor properties. Repeatable and stable bipolar resistive switching (RS) characteristics of the device are first reported in this work. The switching ratio of the device annealed in air reached approximately 102 at 0.1 and −0.1 V. The RS performance was not significantly degraded after 100 consecutive cycles of testing. We also explored the factors affecting the RS behavior of the device. By investigating the RS characteristics of the devices annealed in O2, and in combination with XPS analysis, we found that the RS properties were closely related to the presence of oxygen vacancies. The devices annealed in air exhibited a markedly improved RS effect over those annealed in O2. According to the slope fitting, the conduction mechanism of the device was the ohmic conduction and space charge limited current (SCLC). This study is the first to successfully apply BIT ferroelectric films to the RS layers of memristors. Additionally, a theory of conductive filaments is proposed to adequately explain the relationship between RS behavior and oxygen vacancies, providing meaningful inspiration for designing high-quality resistive random access memory devices.

Simple process for the fabrication of Co/TiO2/Pt resistive random access memory, called ReRAM, has been developed by selective deposition of Co on micro-contact printed (μ-CP) self assembled monolayers (SAMs) patterns. Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) was used to deposit TiO2 thin films, showing its ability of precise control over the thickness of TiO2, which is crucial to obtain proper resistive switching properties of TiO2 ReRAM. The fabrication process for Co/TiO2/Pt ReRAM involves the ALD of TiO2 on sputter-deposited Pt bottom electrode, followed by μ-CP with SAMs and then selective deposition of Co. This results in the Co/TiO2/Pt structure ReRAM. For comparison, Pt/TiO2/Pt ReRAM was produced and revealing the similar switching characteristics as that of Co/TiO2/Pt, thus indicating the feasibility of Co replacement with Pt top electrode. The ratios between the high-resistance state (Off state) and the low-resistance state (On state) were larger than 102. Consequently, the selective deposition of Co with μ-CP, newly developed in this study, can simplify the process and thus implemented into the fabrication of ReRAM.

ABSTRACTThis report covers the resistive switching characteristics of cross-bar type semi-transparent (or see-through) resistive random access memory (RRAM) devices based on ZnO. In order to evaluate the transmittance of the devices, we designed the memory array with various electrode sizes and spaces between the electrodes. To prevent read disturbance problems due to sneak currents, we employed a metal oxide based p-NiO/n-ZnO diode structure, which exhibited good rectifying characteristics and high forward current density. Based on these results, we found that the combined metal oxide diode/RRAM device could be promising candidate with suppressed read disturbances of cross-bar type ZnO RRAM device.
