摘要
Oxide-based resistive switching devices, including ferroelectric tunnel junctions and resistance random access memory, are promising candidates for the next-generation non-volatile memory technology. In this work, we propose a ferroionic tunnel junction to realize a giant electroresistance. It functions as a ferroelectric tunnel junction at low resistance state and as a Schottky junction at high resistance state, due to interface engineering through the field-induced migration of oxygen vacancies. An extremely large electroresistance with ON/OFF ratios of 5.1 x10(7) at room temperature and 2.1 x10(9) at 10 K is achieved, using an ultrathin BaTiO(3-delta )layer as the ferroelectric barrier and a semiconducting Nb-doped SrTiO3 substrate as the bottom electrode. The results point toward an appealing way for the design of high-performance resistive switching devices based on ultrathin oxide heterostructures by ionic controlled interface engineering.
