摘要
Internet of things and big data demand the development of new techniques for memory devices going beyond conventional ways of memorizing and computing. In this work, we fabricated a Pt/a-Ta2O5/TiN resistive switching memory device and demonstrated its resistive and synaptic characteristics. Firstly, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) of a-Ta2O5/TiN analysis was conducted to determine elemental compositions of a-Ta2O5/TiN and TiON interfacial layer between a-Ta2O5 and TiN layer. Repetitive bipolar resistive switching was achieved by a set at a negative bias and a reset at a positive bias. Moreover, its biological potentiation and depression behaviors were well emulated by applying a repetitive pulse on the device. For deep understanding of this device’s properties based on materials, oxygen vacancies, and stack engineering, theoretical calculations were performed employing Vienna ab-initio simulation Package (VASP) code. All calculations were carried out using PBE and GGA+U method to obtain accurate results. Work function difference between electrodes provided a localized path for forming a Vo based conducting filament in a-Ta2O5. Iso-surface charge density plots confirmed the formation of intrinsic Vo based conducting filaments in a-Ta2O5. These conducting filaments became stronger with increasing concentration of Vos in a-Ta2O5. Integrated charge density, density of states (DOS), and potential line ups also confirmed that Vo was responsible for charge transportation in a-Ta2O5 based RRAM devices. Experimental and theoretical results confirmed the formation of TiON layer between a-Ta2O5 and active electrode (TiN), suggesting that the bipolar resistive switching phenomenon of the proposed device was based on oxygen vacancy (Vo).
