摘要
Conductive Bridging RAM (CBRAM) is a promising candidate for future non-volatile memories. This technology is based on the change of the cell's resistive state, due to formation and dissolution of a metallic filament through an insulating layer. In this work we study Cu/SiO2 cells fabricated using standard back-end-of-line (BEOL) processes, making them low-cost and easy to integrate. We show evidence of reproducible electrical switching, without the need of an annealing post-treatment. Furthermore, the kinetic behaviour of the switching mechanism was studied using electrical experiments. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
