Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have fabricated a resistive change random access memory (ReRAM) using insulating NiO nanowires, which is expected to indicate good reproducibility of the switching voltage due to spatial limitation of formation of conductive filaments coming from the nanowire width, where Indium metal as the top electrode was attached on the top of the surface of NiO nanowire array and the bottome electrode was the residual aluminum plate. Current-voltage characteristics of In/NiO/Al were investigated using a conventional two-prove method under monopolar operation, where the current compliance limit was set to 1 mA in the SET process. The sample exhibited clear switching behaviors and memory windows with a narrow switching voltage distribution, comparing with the results of ReRAM using thin film insulator. Our results indicate that reduction of the number of conductive filaments is very effective to improve the reproducibility of the switching voltage.
