In this work, we investigate the characteristics of ZnO resistive random access memory (RRAM) with a reduced graphene oxide (rGO) capping layer and the polarity effect of the SET/RESET bias on the RRAM. The rGO film insertion enhances the stability of the current–voltage (I–V) switching curve and the superior resistance ratio (∼105) of high-resistance state (HRS) to low-resistance state (LRS). Using the appropriate polarity of the SET/RESET bias applied to the rGO-capped ZnO RRAM enables the oxygen ions to move mainly at the interface of the rGO and ZnO films, resulting in the best performance. Presumably, the rGO film acts as an oxygen reservoir and enhances the easy in and out motion of the oxygen ions from the rGO film. The rGO film also prevents the interaction of oxygen ions and the Al electrode, resulting in excellent performance. In a pulse endurance test, the rGO-capped ZnO RRAM reveals superior endurance of up to 108 cycles over that of the ZnO RRAM without rGO insertion (106 cycles).

In this letter, high-performance single-crystal-like nanowire poly-Si TFTs with simple spacer patterning technique were demonstrated and characterized. Due to the nanoscale dimension formed by spacer patterning technique, each nanowire is easily transformed within one crystalline grain of the standard sequential-lateral-solidification (SLS) poly-Si film with the regularly arranged grains and thus performed with a single-crystallike device channel. Due to the high-crystallinity channel, together with the tri-gated structure, the fabricated devices revealed good device integrity of high field-effect mobility of 477 cm(2)/V . s and good ON/OFF current ratio of 1.07 x 10(8)
