摘要
The relations of tire Ti-O binding states to the resistive switching behaviors of TiO2 thin films have been investigated. TiO2 thin films in a Pt/TiO2/Pt structure were prepared by reactive magnetron sputtering with various preparation conditions, such as the oxygen partial pressure (P(O-2)) and the substrate temperature (T-s). At the optimized preparation conditions for reproducible resistive switching TiO2 thin films (T-s = 100 degrees C and P(O-2) = 0.1 mTorr), the O/Ti ratio in the bulk was nearly stoichiometric, 1.95, but, the surface Ti-O binding state was heavily oxidized ill the form of TiO2.5. We suggest that the molar fraction of the Ti2O3 in the bulk is related to the reproducible resistive switching behaviors, which, ill turn, may be related to tire filamentary mechanism ill TiO2 thin films.
