摘要: We report repetitive phase-change memory (PCM) activity via the high- to low-resistance state transition in gallium-doped indium oxide (Ga:InO) induced by nanosecond electric pulses. The amorphous-to-crystalline phase transition of Ga:InO is found to occur at a crystallization temperature of similar to 250 degrees C with an activation energy of 1.27 +/- 0.07 eV. At the phase transition, we observe a change in two orders of magnitude in the PCM-device resistance, which can be correlated with the formation of (211) and {222} crystallites of bixbyite cubic In(2)O(3). We ascribe the phase-change mechanism to the Joule heating effect in Ga:InO.
