Planar Non-volatile Memory based on Metal Nanoparticles
نویسندگان
چکیده
Resistive switching properties of silver nanoparticles hosted in an insulating polymer matrix (poly(N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) are reported. Planar devices structures using interdigitated gold electrodes were fabricated. These devices have on/off resistance ratio as high as 10 , retention times reaching to months and good endurance cycles. Temperature-dependent measurements show that the charge transport is weakly thermal activated (73 meV) for both states suggesting that nanoparticles will not aggregate into a metallic filament.

متن کاملResistive memories using Cu nanoparticles embedded amorphous SiC
Resistive memories (RMs) have simple Metal/Insulator/Metal structures and are considered as outstanding candidates for future non-volatile memory applications [1]. The write and erase of RMs are based on the formation and rupture of conductive filament (CF) in the insulating medium, induced by applying a programming voltage on the device. The formation and rupture of CF switch the device betwee...

متن کاملMatrix-dependent Strain Distributions of Au and Ag Nanoparticles in a Metal-oxide-semiconductor-based Nonvolatile Memory Device
The matrix-dependent strain distributions of Au and Ag nanoparticles in a metal-oxide-semiconductor based nonvolatile memory device are investigated by finite element calculations. The simulation results clearly indicate that both Au and Ag nanoparticles incur compressive strain by high-k Al2O3 and conventional SiO2 dielectrics. The strain distribution of nanoparticles is closely related to the...
