Abstract:
A switch includes a first electrode layer, a second electrode layer disposed over the first electrode layer, and a selecting element layer interposed between the first electrode layer and the second electrode layer. The selecting element layer includes a gas region in which a current flows or does not flow according to a voltage applied to the switch. When the current flows, the switch is in an on-state, and, when the current does not flow, the switch is in an off-state.
Abstract:
A switching device includes a first electrode, a switching layer having a non-memory characteristic, and a second electrode that are disposed over a substrate. The switching layer includes an oxide of a first atom or a nitride of the first atom, and a second atom is doped in the oxide or the nitride. The second atom forms a trap site trapping a conductive carrier in the switching layer when a voltage having an absolute value that is smaller than an absolute value of a predetermined threshold voltage is applied between the first and the second electrodes. The second atom forms a moving path through which the conductive carrier moves between the first electrode and the second electrode when a voltage having an absolute value that is greater than an absolute value of a predetermined threshold voltage is applied between the first and the second electrodes.
Abstract:
A switching device includes a first electrode, a switching layer and a second electrode that are disposed over a substrate. The switching layer includes an oxide of a first atom or a nitride of the first atom, and a second atom is doped in the oxide or the nitride. A valence of the first atom and a valence of the second atom are different from each other.
Abstract:
A switching device includes a first electrode and a second electrode that are disposed over a substrate, and an electrolyte layer disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode and including a porous oxide. The switching device performs threshold switching operation on the basis of oxidation-reduction reactions of metal ions that are provided from the first electrode or the second electrode to the electrolyte layer.
Abstract:
A resistive memory device includes a first electrode layer, a second electrode layer, and a first variable resistive layer and a second variable resistive layer stacked at least once between the first electrode layer and the second electrode layer. The first variable resistive material layer may include a metal nitride layer having a resistivity higher than that of the first electrode layer or the second electrode layer and less than or equal to that of an insulating material.
