Study of multi-level characteristics for 3D vertical resistive switching memory.

ABSTRACT: Three-dimensional (3D) integration and multi-level cell (MLC) are two attractive technologies to achieve ultra-high density for mass storage applications. In this work, a three-layer 3D vertical AlO?/Ta2O5-x/TaOy resistive random access memories were fabricated and characterized. The vertical cells in three layers show good uniformity and high performance (e.g. >1000X HRS/LRS windows, >10(10) endurance cycles, >10(4) s retention times at 125°C). Meanwhile, four level MLC is demonstrated with two operation strategies, current controlled scheme (CCS) and voltage controlled scheme (VCS). The switching mechanism of 3D vertical RRAM cells is studied based on temperature-dependent transport characteristics. Furthermore, the applicability of CCS and VCS in 3D vertical RRAM array is compared using resistor network circuit simulation.

Electrochemical Oxidation Induced Multi-Level Memory in Carbon-Based Resistive Switching Devices.

Project description:In this work, we report for the first time the electrochemical oxidation as a technique to improve the electrical performances of carbon-based resistive switching devices. The devices obtained through the anodic oxidation of carbon-structures possess superior electrical performances i.e. a 3-level memory behavior and an ON/OFF ratio two order of magnitude higher than the non-oxidized carbon-based devices. It is demonstrated that the chemical composition of the carbon structures (i.e. percentage of oxygen groups, sp2 and sp3 carbon atoms) plays a key role in the improvement of the carbon-based devices. The electrochemical oxidation allows the possibility to control the oxidation degree, and therefore, to tailor the devices electrical performances. We demonstrated that the resistive switching behavior in the electrochemically oxidized devices is originated from the formation of conductive filament paths, which are built from the oxygen vacancies and structural defects of the anodic oxidized carbon materials. The novelty of this work relies on the anodic oxidation as a time- and cost-effective technique that can be employed for the engineering and improvement of the electrical performances of next generation carbon-based resistive switching devices.

Ratio-based multi-level resistive memory cells.

Project description:Ratio-based encoding has recently been proposed for single-level resistive memory cells, in which the resistance ratio of a pair of resistance-switching devices, rather than the resistance of a single device (i.e. resistance-based encoding), is used for encoding single-bit information, which significantly reduces the bit error probability. Generalizing this concept for multi-level cells, we propose a ratio-based information encoding mechanism and demonstrate its advantages over the resistance-based encoding for designing multi-level memory systems. We derive a closed-form expression for the bit error probability of ratio-based and resistance-based encodings as a function of the number of levels of the memory cell, the variance of the distribution of the resistive states, and the ON/OFF ratio of the resistive device, from which we prove that for a multi-level memory system using resistance-based encoding with bit error probability x, its corresponding bit error probability using ratio-based encoding will be reduced to [Formula: see text] at the best case and [Formula: see text] at the worst case. We experimentally validated these findings on multiple resistance-switching devices and show that, compared to the resistance-based encoding on the same resistive devices, our approach achieves up to 3 orders of magnitude lower bit error probability, or alternatively it could reduce the cell's programming time and programming energy by up 5-10[Formula: see text], while achieving the same bit error probability.

Statistical characteristics of reset switching in Cu/HfO2/Pt resistive switching memory.

Project description:A major challenge of resistive switching memory (resistive random access memory (RRAM)) for future application is how to reduce the fluctuation of the resistive switching parameters. In this letter, with a statistical methodology, we have systematically analyzed the reset statistics of the conductive bridge random access memory (CBRAM) with a Cu/HfO2/Pt structure which displays bipolar switching property. The experimental observations show that the distributions of the reset voltage (V reset) and reset current (I reset) are greatly influenced by the initial on-state resistance (R on) which is closely related to the size of the conductive filament (CF) before the reset process. The reset voltage increases and the current decreases with the on-state resistance, respectively, according to the scatter plots of the experimental data. Using resistance screening method, the statistical data of the reset voltage and current are decomposed into several ranges and the distributions of them in each range are analyzed by the Weibull model. Both the Weibull slopes of the reset voltage and current are demonstrated to be independent of the on-state resistance which indicates that no CF dissolution occurs before the reset point. The scale factor of the reset voltage increases with on-state resistance while that of the reset current decreases with it. These behaviors are fully in consistency with the thermal dissolution model, which gives an insight on the physical mechanism of the reset switching. Our work has provided an inspiration on effectively reducing the variation of the switching parameters of RRAM devices.

Self-Compliant Bipolar Resistive Switching in SiN-Based Resistive Switching Memory.

Project description:Here, we present evidence of self-compliant and self-rectifying bipolar resistive switching behavior in Ni/SiNx/n⁺ Si and Ni/SiNx/n++ Si resistive-switching random access memory devices. The Ni/SiNx/n++ Si device's Si bottom electrode had a higher dopant concentration (As ion > 1019 cm-3) than the Ni/SiNx/n⁺ Si device; both unipolar and bipolar resistive switching behaviors were observed for the higher dopant concentration device owing to a large current overshoot. Conversely, for the device with the lower dopant concentration (As ion < 1018 cm-3), self-rectification and self-compliance were achieved owing to the series resistance of the Si bottom electrode.

Transparent multi-level resistive switching phenomena observed in ITO/RGO/ITO memory cells by the sol-gel dip-coating method.

Project description:A reduced graphene oxide (RGO)-based transparent electronic memory cell with multi-level resistive switching (RS) was successfully realized by a dip-coating method. Using ITO/RGO/ITO structures, the memory device exhibited a transmittance above 80% (including the substrate) in the visible region and multi-level RS behavior in the 00, 01, 10, and 11 states by varying the pulse height from 2 V to 7 V. In the reliability test, the device exhibited a good endurance of over 10(5) cycles and a long data retention of over 10(5) s at 85°C in each state. We believe that the RGO-based transparent memory presented in this work could be a milestone for future transparent electronic devices.

Multi-level characteristics of TiOx transparent non-volatile resistive switching device by embedding SiO2 nanoparticles.

Project description:TiOx-based resistive switching devices have recently attracted attention as a promising candidate for next-generation non-volatile memory devices. A number of studies have attempted to increase the structural density of resistive switching devices. The fabrication of a multi-level switching device is a feasible method for increasing the density of the memory cell. Herein, we attempt to obtain a non-volatile multi-level switching memory device that is highly transparent by embedding SiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) into the TiOx matrix (TiOx@SiO2 NPs). The fully transparent resistive switching device is fabricated with an ITO/TiOx@SiO2 NPs/ITO structure on glass substrate, and it shows transmittance over 95% in the visible range. The TiOx@SiO2 NPs device shows outstanding switching characteristics, such as a high on/off ratio, long retention time, good endurance, and distinguishable multi-level switching. To understand multi-level switching characteristics by adjusting the set voltages, we analyze the switching mechanism in each resistive state. This method represents a promising approach for high-performance non-volatile multi-level memory applications.

Comparison of diverse resistive switching characteristics and demonstration of transitions among them in Al-incorporated HfO2-based resistive switching memory for neuromorphic applications.

Project description:Diverse resistive switching behaviors are observed in the Pt/HfAlO x /TiN memory device depending on the compliance current, the sweep voltage amplitude, and the bias polarity. We extensively compare three types of resistive switching characteristics in a Pt/HfAlO x /TiN device in terms of endurance, ON/OFF ratio, linear conductance update, and read margin in a cross-point array structure for synaptic device applications. The bipolar resistive switching under positive set and negative reset shows better linear synaptic weight updates due to gradual switching than the bipolar resistive switching at the opposite polarity. The complementary resistive switching shows a higher read margin due to the current suppression at a low voltage regime. In addition, the potentiation and the depression can be adjusted at the same voltage polarity for a hardware neuromorphic system. Finally, we demonstrate the transition between bipolar resistive switching and complementary resistive switching, which could provide flexibility for different applications.

Nonvolatile Resistive Switching Memory Utilizing Cobalt Embedded in Gelatin.

Project description:This study investigates the preparation and electrical properties of Al/cobalt-embedded gelatin (CoG)/ indium tin oxide (ITO) resistive switching memories. Co. elements can be uniformly distributed in gelatin without a conventional dispersion procedure, as confirmed through energy dispersive X-ray analyzer and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy observations. With an appropriate Co. concentration, Co. ions can assist the formation of an interfacial AlOx layer and improve the memory properties. High ON/OFF ratio, good retention capability, and good endurance switching cycles are demonstrated with 1 M Co. concentration, in contrast to 0.5 M and 2 M memory devices. This result can be attributed to the suitable thickness of the interfacial AlOx layer, which acts as an oxygen reservoir and stores and releases oxygen during switching. The Co. element in a solution-processed gelatin matrix has high potential for bio-electronic applications.

Tuning of resistive memory switching in electropolymerized metallopolymeric films.

Project description:A diruthenium complex capped with two triphenylamine units was polymerized by electrochemical oxidation to afford metallopolymeric films with alternating diruthenium and tetraphenylbenzidine structures. The obtained thin films feature rich redox processes associated with the reduction of the bridging ligands (tetra(pyrid-2-yl)pyrazine) and the oxidation of the tetraphenylbenzidine and diruthenium segments. The sandwiched ITO/polymer film/Al electrical devices show excellent resistive memory switching with a low operational voltage, large ON/OFF current ratio (100-1000), good stability (500 cycles tested), and long retention time. In stark contrast, devices with polymeric films of a related monoruthenium complex show poor memory performance. The mechanism of the field-induced conductivity of the diruthenium polymer film is rationalized by the formation of a charge transfer state, as supported by DFT calculations.
