Abstract:
Nonvolatile memory elements that are based on resistive switching memory element layers are provided. A nonvolatile memory element may have a resistive switching metal oxide layer. The resistive switching metal oxide layer may have one or more layers of oxide. A resistive switching metal oxide may be doped with a dopant that increases its melting temperature and enhances its thermal stability. Layers may be formed to enhance the thermal stability of the nonvolatile memory element. An electrode for a nonvolatile memory element may contain a conductive layer and a buffer layer.

Abstract:
A resistive switching memory is described, including a first electrode comprising doped silicon having a first work function, a second electrode having a second work function that is different from the first work function by between 0.1 and 1.0 electron volts (eV), a metal oxide layer between the first electrode and the second electrode, the metal oxide layer switches using bulk-mediated switching using unipolar or bipolar switching voltages for switching from a low resistance state to a high resistance state and vice versa.

Abstract:
A hafnium oxide-aluminum oxide-hafnium oxide (HAH) based multilayer stack is used as the dielectric material in the formation of decoupling capacitors employed in microelectronic logic circuits. In some embodiments, the thickness of the aluminum oxide layer in the HAH multilayer stack varies between 0.1 nm and 1 nm. In some embodiments, the thickness of the two hafnium oxide layers varies between about 3.0 nm and 4.5 nm.
