We report on the bipolar resistive switching behavior and uniform cumulative distribution of set/reset voltage observed from the resistive random access memory (ReRAM) device based on a solution-processed HfAlO x thin film. The HfAlO x thin film was spin-coated from a mixture of HfO x and AlO x solutions at 1 : 1 ratio. The dominant conduction mechanism of a solution-processed HfAlO x thin film is found to be the ohmic behavior in the low-resistance state (LRS) and high-resistance state (HRS) in the low-voltage region, whereas the Poole-Frenkel emission is dominant in the HRS in the high-voltage region. Outstanding reliability in terms of endurance and retention characteristics was achieved. The solution-processed HfAlO x thin film can be a promising candidate for the application in ReRAM devices with glass or flexible substrates.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
