Leakage Current-Forming Voltage Relation and Oxygen Gettering in rm HfO rm x RRAM Devices

We observe a trend between initial leakage currents in polycrystalline rm HfO rm x resisitive random access memory (RRAM) cells (before forming) and the forming voltages.

description We observe a trend between initial leakage currents in polycrystalline rm HfO rm x resisitive random access memory (RRAM) cells (before forming) and the forming voltages. This trend points to the dominant role played by conduction paths located at grain boundaries, which is promoted by the oxygen deficiency in rm HfO rm x . One of these paths is then converted into the conductive filament responsible for nonvolatile resistance switching. In addition, we find that by engineering the RRAM stack, the forming voltage can be tuned-up to meet specific RRAM requirements, such as lower power and forming-less operations.
