Abstract

Novel bi-layered solid electrolytic based resistive switching memory device using Al/Cu/Ge0.2Se0.8/Ta2O5/W structure has been investigated for the first time. The tight distribution of resistance states and threshold voltage are achieved as compared to that of single layer Ge0.2Se0.8 solid-electrolyte. Stable endurance of >3.5×105 cycles and excellent retention characteristics with a low compliance current of 100 nA are obtained at 85 oC. The high resistance state (RHigh) increases with decreasing the device size from 8 μm to 0.2 μm. The low resistance state (RLow) is independent with different via diameters. The R Low decreases with increasing the compliance currents from 1nA to 1mA, which can be useful for future nanoscale low power consuming nonvolatile memory device applications.
