Analog Memristive Characteristics of Square Shaped Lanthanum Oxide Nanoplates Layered Device

Abstract

Square-shaped or rectangular nanoparticles (NPs) of lanthanum oxide (LaOx) were synthesized and layered by convective self-assembly to demonstrate an analog memristive device in this study. Along with non-volatile analog memory effect, selection diode property could be co-existent without any implementation of heterogeneous multiple stacks with ~1 μm thick LaOx NPs layer. Current–voltage (I–V) behavior of the LaOx NPs resistive switching (RS) device has shown an evolved current level with memristive behavior and additional rectification functionality with threshold voltage. The concurrent memristor and diode type selector characteristics were examined with electrical stimuli or spikes for the duration of 10–50 ms pulse biases. The pulsed spike increased current levels at a read voltage of +0.2 V sequentially along with ±7 V biases, which have emulated neuromorphic operation of long-term potentiation (LTP). This study can open a new application of rare-earth LaOx NPs as a component of neuromorphic synaptic device.

Tunable Multilevel Data Storage Bioresistive Random Access Memory Device Based on Egg Albumen and Carbon Nanotubes

“…The whole HRS process completes the obvious transition from ohmic conductivity to space charge-limited conductivity. This transition process conforms to the theoretical mechanism of space charge-limited current transfer due to the existence of traps [ 43 , 44 ].…”

Resistive Switching Characteristics Improved by Visible-Light Irradiation in a Cs2AgBiBr6-Based Memory Device

“…As shown in Figure 4 a, when a low positive voltage (0~0.3 V) is applied to a Pt electrode, the fitting slope of the log( I )–log( V ) curve is 1.11, i.e., the relationship of I and V follows Ohm’s law ( I ∝ V ) and the device maintains the HRS. With increasing positive voltage, the fitting slopes of the lines are about 1.75 and 9.21, respectively, which indicates that the carrier transport behavior is dominated by SCLC ( I ∝ V 2 and I ∝ V n , n > 2) [ 21 , 25 , 26 ]. The transition between the ohmic and SCLC behavior indicates trap distribution in the CABB films.…”

Forming-free plant resistive random access memory based on the Coulomb blockade effect produced by gold nanoparticles

“…37 RRAM with bipolar switching behavior can exhibit multilevel conductance by controlling the limiting current (I CC ) of the device, which provides the possibility for the preparation of artificial synapses to simulate biological synaptic plasticity and the construction of biomimetic neuromorphic systems. [38][39][40][41][42] To date, various materials, including metal oxides, 43,44 metal nitrides, 45 and organic matter, 46 have shown synaptic behaviour. Compared with other materials, biological materials have the advantages of being convenient to obtain, simple to process, nontoxic, harmless, biocompatible and degradable.…”
