Bipolar switching resistance behaviors of the Gd:SiO2 resistive random access memory (RRAM) devices on indium tin oxide electrode by the low-temperature supercritical CO2-treated technology were investigated. For physical and electrical measurement results obtained, the improvement on oxygen qualities, properties of indium tin oxide electrode, and operation current of the Gd:SiO2 RRAM devices were also observed. In addition, the initial metallic filament-forming model analyses and conduction transferred mechanism in switching resistance properties of the RRAM devices were verified and explained. Finally, the electrical reliability and retention properties of the Gd:SiO2 RRAM devices for low-resistance state (LRS)/high-resistance state (HRS) in different switching cycles were also measured for applications in nonvolatile random memory devices.

To discuss the optoelectronic effect on resistive random access memory (RRAM) devices, the bipolar switching properties and electron-hole pair generation behavior in the transparent indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode of Gd:SiO2 thin films under the ultraviolet (lambda = 400 nm) and red-light (lambda = 770 nm) illumination for high resistance state (HRS)/low resistance state (LRS) was observed and investigated. In dark environment, the Gd:SiO2 RRAM devices exhibited the ohmic conduction mechanism for LRS, exhibited the Schottky emission conduction and Poole-Frankel conduction mechanism for HRS. For light illumination effect, the operation current of the Gd:SiO2 RRAM devices for HRS/LRS was slightly increased. Finally, the electron-hole pair transport mechanism, switching conduction diagram, and energy band of the RRAM devices will be clearly demonstrated and explained.

In the advancement of the semiconductor device technology, ZnO could be a prospective alternative than the other metal oxides for its versatility and huge applications in different aspects. In this review, a thorough overview on ZnO for the application of resistive switching memory (RRAM) devices has been conducted. Various efforts that have been made to investigate and modulate the switching characteristics of ZnO-based switching memory devices are discussed. The use of ZnO layer in different structure, the different types of filament formation, and the different types of switching including complementary switching are reported. By considering the huge interest of transparent devices, this review gives the concrete overview of the present status and prospects of transparent RRAM devices based on ZnO. ZnO-based RRAM can be used for flexible memory devices, which is also covered here. Another challenge in ZnO-based RRAM is that the realization of ultra-thin and low power devices. Nevertheless, ZnO not only offers decent memory properties but also has a unique potential to be used as multifunctional nonvolatile memory devices. The impact of electrode materials, metal doping, stack structures, transparency, and flexibility on resistive switching properties and switching parameters of ZnO-based resistive switching memory devices are briefly compared. This review also covers the different nanostructured-based emerging resistive switching memory devices for low power scalable devices. It may give a valuable insight on developing ZnO-based RRAM and also should encourage researchers to overcome the challenges.

Resistive switching characteristics of Pt/Ti/Al2O3/Pt memory devices annealed at various temperatures including 400 degrees C, 500 degrees C and 600 degrees C for 1 h under ambient condition were investigated in the study. The Al2O3 thin films annealed at up to 600 degrees C for 1 h remain amorphous phase based on the X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses. As increasing annealing temperature, the forming voltage (activating the pristine device) of the memory device decreases in contrast to the rising trend of the turn-on voltage (switching from high to low resistance state). However, the turn-off voltage (switching from low to high resistance state) is almost uninfluenced by thermal annealing. These phenomena might be attributed to the interdiffusion between Ti and Al2O3, based on the analyzed results of secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS) and high resolution transmission electron microscope (HR-TEM). Moreover, the thermal annealing process eventually creates high conducting paths with a high density of oxygen vacancies between the two electrodes. (c) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Sputter-deposited CeO2 film in the metal-insulator-metal structure exhibits repeatable resistive switching behavior under voltage sweep. Based on the X-ray diffraction patterns and the cross-sectional scanning electron microscope image, the CeO2 film is polycrystalline with columnar grains perpendicular to the bottom electrode. Moreover, due to the symmetric device structure of Pt/CeO2/Pt, the resistive switching behavior is independent of bias polarity so that both positive and negative voltages can switch the device from high conducting state (ON-state) into low conducting state (OFF-state) and then back to ON-state, which is named non-polar resistive switching. The resistance ratio between two memory states is about five orders of magnitude, which is stable over 10(4) S at 0.3 V stress. in addition, the resistance ratio decreases with increasing the current compliance during forming process. The stability of ON-state, OFF-state, and as-deposited film state (the state before performing forming process) against temperature is also investigated in this study, showing that the OFF-state is less stable.

In this work, electrical characteristics of the Ge-incorporated Nickel silicide (NiSiGe) nanocrystals memory device formed by the rapidly thermal annealing in N-2 and O-2 ambient have been studied. The trapping layer was deposited by co-sputtering the NiSi2 and Ge, simultaneously. Transmission electron microscope results indicate that the NiSiGe nanocrystals were formed obviously in both the samples. The memory devices show obvious charge-storage ability under capacitance-voltage measurement. However, it is found that the NiSiGe nanocrystals device formed by annealing in N-2 ambient has smaller memory window and better retention characteristics than in O-2 ambient. Then, related material analyses were used to confirm that the oxidized Ge elements affect the charge-storage sites and the electrical performance of the NCs memory. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V.

This study investigates a sputtered Sm2O3 thin film to apply into a resistive random access memory device. The proposed device exhibits a stable resistance ratio of about 2.5 orders after 10(4) cycling bias pulses and no degradation for retention characteristics monitored after an endurance test at 85 degrees C. The conduction mechanisms for low and high resistance states are dominated by ohmic behavior and trapcontrolled space charge limited current, respectively. The resistance switching is ascribed to the formation/rupture of conductive filaments. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

In this study, we have investigated the effect of current compliance during forming process on resistive switching (RS) characteristics of the Ti/ZrO2/Pt device. The higher the current compliance is, the larger RS operation voltage is needed. The Ti/ZrO2/Pt device with high device yield can be operated over 10,000 RS cycles by sweeping dc voltage. and the on and off two memory states exhibit good stability under 0.3 V stress voltage. Moreover, the data retention of both memory states is over 10(5) s. As applying +6-V 10-ns and -3-V 10-ns voltage pulses on the device, there are operation errors observed during continuous write-read-erase-read cycles until increasing the pulse width to 50 ns. Nondestructive readout tests are also performed on the Ti/ZrO2/Pt device before and after 10(3) pulse cycles without any obvious degradation observed. Compared with reported ZrO2-based memory devices, our Ti/ZrO2/Pt device exhibits better RS properties and has a high potential for memory application. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

We investigated annealing effects on the bipolar resistive switching characteristics and mechanism of the thin FeOx transition layer in a Ti/TiN/SiO2/FeOx/FePt structure by depositing a plasma-enhanced tetraethyl orthosilicate oxide onto the Fe-contented electrode. The electrical results show that the values of operation voltage, variation of electrical parameters and retention properties could be improved with the increasing thermal treatment budget. Tunneling electron microscope, X-ray diffraction, Auger electron spectroscopy and X-ray photon-emission spectra depth profiles were examined for cross-section image, crystallinity and composition analyses of the transition layer. In order to investigate the resistive switching mechanism and characterizations in Ti/TiN/SiO2/FeOx/FePt structure, the electrical parameters were extracted during set and reset process. The retention property at room temperature and 85 C was improved after the thermal treatment and maintains both resistance states over 6 x 10(4) s implies promising potential for future memory application.

Resistance of transition metal oxide (TMO) resistive random access memory (ReRAM) depends sharply on temperature, resulting in drastic memory window loss at high temperature. Thus, it is difficult to design the ReRAM that can serve a wide range of operating conditions. It is especially challenging to achieve multi-level-cell (MLC) ReRAM because of the large temperature dependency. This letter investigates both the temperature and read bias dependencies of WOx ReRAM, and found both can be well understood by a modified space-charge limited conduction model. Using this model, we have designed a novel read scheme that varies the read bias according to the device temperature and compensates for the temperature effect on cell resistance. Since TMO ReRAM devices depend on defect states, cell-to-cell and cycle-to-cycle variations are naturally large. An algorithm is designed to address the variability. A 1-Mb WOx ReRAM array is fabricated to both characterize the bias and temperature dependencies and verify the new read scheme. A large and constant memory window is preserved for MLC across a wide temperature range (-40 degrees C-125 degrees C), suitable for high-reliability applications.
