摘要
The stabilization of the resistive switching characteristics is important to resistive random access memory (RRAM) device development. In this paper, an alternative approach for improving resistive switching characteristics in ZrO2-based resistive memory devices has been investigated. Compared with the Cu/ZrO2/Pt structure device, by embedding a thin TiOx layer between the ZrO2 and the Cu top electrode, the Cu/TiOx-ZrO2/Pt structure device exhibits much better resistive switching characteristics. The improvement of the resistive switching characteristics in the Cu/TiOx-ZrO2/Pt structure device might be attributed to the modulation of the barrier height at the electrode/oxide interfaces.
