摘要
The surface oxidized layer of a TiN barrier metal thin film grown on a Pt electrode was used as a resistive switching material. The fabricated memory cell shows bipolar resistive switching on a nanosecond order. A TiO2 anatase layer of about 2.5 nm thick on TiN thin film was characterized by high-resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy. The results suggested that the high-speed resistive change was derived from the Mott transition in the TiO2 anatase nanolayer, and the obtained results could relate to the formation of filament paths previously reported in binary transition metal oxide thin films exhibiting resistive switching.
