Study on the Multi-level Resistance-Switching Memory and Memory-State-Dependent Photovoltage in Pt/Nd:SrTiO3 Junctions

Abstract: Pt/Nd:SrTiO3 (STO)/In devices were fabricated by depositing Schottky-contact Pt and Ohmic-contact In electrodes on a single crystal STO with Nd doping. The Pt/Nd:STO/In devices show multi-level resistance-switching (RS) memory and memory-state-dependent photovoltage (PV) effects, which can be controlled by the applied pulse width or magnitude. Both the RS and PV are related to the bias-induced modulation of the interface barrier, both in height and width, at the Pt/Nd:STO interface. The results establish a str… Show more

“…In addition to serving as the buffer layer for on-silicon epitaxial growth of other functional oxide thin films, STO enables the device functionality (i.e., ON/OFF switching) by its unique memristive characteristics (see the Supplementary Information for measured current-voltage hysteretic curves of the STO thin film). Similar memristive behaviors have already been reported for doped STO and other organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite oxide materials 31,32 . It has been well understood that (1) stress can facilitate spontaneous formation of oxygen vacancies inside a complex transition-metal oxide system by tuning the oxygen vacancy formation energy 33 , and (2) conductance of a memristive device is directly dictated by oxygen vacancy concentration inside the oxide thin film 34 .…”

“…Emerging non-volatile memories provide a new computing paradigm due to their scalability (down to sub-10 nm feature sizes), speed and energy-efficiency performances, and ability to implement machine learning by hardware. In one previous study (26), the Nd-doped STO sandwiched between Pt and In contact electrodes already exhibited the resistive switching behavior. The…”

“…These methods allow us to accurately characterize silver nanoparticles and study their properties. The use of physical methods for the synthesis and characterization of silver nanoparticles can be of special importance due to their speed and minimal use of chemical substances, providing various applications in fields such as medicine, healthcare, and industry [61] . However, physical synthesis methods have some drawbacks, including high energy consumption, wide particle size distribution, and low efficiency [62] .…”
