摘要
The nanoscale resistance switching property of copper-carbon-mixed (Cu-C) layer was investigated for nonvolatile memory applications. The Cu-C layer of the cross-point cell array showed typical filament switching with two orders of on/off ratio, exhibiting stable resistance switching and a narrow distribution of set and reset voltages in the nanoscale junction. In addition, we investigated the area dependence of operation current. Based on these results and current-voltage dependence on temperature, we discussed a potential switching mechanism of Cu-C layer.
