Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Resistive memory (ReRAM) has been intensively investigated as a non-volatile memory satisfying beyond CMOS technology. Elucidation of its switching mechanism is the most important issue for practical use of ReRAM. While an operation mechanism based on electrochemistry has been proposed, details are obscure. In this work, the in-situ TEM was applied to solve this problem, where real-time observations of the microstructure were performed on metallic-filamant-type ReRAM. It was clarified that the metallic filament shows no remarkable change at the switching moment between high (HRS) to low (LRS) resistance states (Set and Reset). Switching occurs locally in nanometer scale. Remarkable change of the filament occurs with additional current flow. Large change of the filament induceas instability of the switching position and dissolution of metallic ions into the switching layer, and it generates device degradation. The power balance at Set and Reset is important for stable ReRAM operation.
