摘要: We report the transition from bipolar resistive switching (BRS) to unipolar (URS) in Au/Ti/GaOx/NiOx/ITO device at room temperature. After proper soft breakdown of p–n junctions (GaOx/NiOx), operation could be easily transferred BRS URS mode. The and behaviors are possibly related interfacial variation Ti/GaOx Schottky junction barrier GaOx/NiOx barrier, respectively. high/low resistance state can distinguished clearly switched reversibly under a train voltage pulses both modes. endurance characteristics show good reliability stored state. These results suggest potential for next generation nonvolatile memory applications.
