We investigated resistance switching behavior of the Ag/ZnO/Ti structures for random access memory devices. These films were prepared on glass substrate by dc sputtering technique at room temperature. The resistance switching follows unipolar switching mode with small switching voltages (0.4 V – 0.6 V). Our results figured out that the Ag/ZnO/Ti/Glass structure is a candidate structure for nonvolatile data storage applications.

ZnMn2O4films for resistance random access memory (RRAM) were fabricated on p-Si substrate by magnetron sputtering. The effects of thickness onI-Vcharacteristics, resistance switching behavior and endurance characteristics of ZnMn2O4films were investigated. The ZnMn2O4films with a structure of Ag/ZnMn2O4/p-Si exhibit bipolar resistive switching behavior. With the increase of thickness of ZnMn2O4films from 0.83μm to 2.3μm, both theVONand the number of stable repetition switching cycle increase, but theRHRS/RLRSratio decrease, which indicated that the ZnMn2O4films with a thickness of 0.83μm has the biggestRHRS/RLRSratio and the lowestVONandVOFF, but the worst endurance characteristics.

Large device variation is a fundamental challenge for resistive random access memory (RRAM) array circuit. Improved device-to-device distributions of set and reset voltages in a SiNx RRAM device is realized via arsenic ion (As+) implantation. Besides, the As+-implanted SiNx RRAM device exhibits much tighter cycle-to-cycle distribution than the nonimplanted device. The As+-implanted SiNx device further exhibits excellent performance, which shows high stability and a large 1.73 × 103 resistance window at 85 °C retention for 104 s, and a large 103 resistance window after 105 cycles of the pulsed endurance test. The current–voltage characteristics of high- and low-resistance states were both analyzed as space-charge-limited conduction mechanism. From the simulated defect distribution in the SiNx layer, a microscopic model was established, and the formation and rupture of defect-conductive paths were proposed for the resistance switching behavior. Therefore, the reason for such high device performance can be attributed to the sufficient defects created by As+ implantation that leads to low forming and operation power.
