摘要
It is known that Pt/Pr0.7Ca0.3MnO3 (PCMO)/Pt structures show no hysteresis loops in current-voltage curves due to the symmetric top and bottom interfaces. Here, we prepared an asymmetric memory device using bi-layer PCMO thin films with different oxygen content. The repeatable and stable resistive switching is observed. The excellent resistive switching characteristics such as a large R-HRS/R-LRS (where HRS is the high resistance state and LRS is the low resistance state) ratio ( similar to 1000), sweeping endurance ( > 100), and long retention time ( > 10(5) s) can be obtained using a bipolar operation mode. It is suggested that the switching process can be elucidated to the formation and rupture of localized conductive filament along with the migration of oxygen ions.
