Abstract

We report on the resistive switching characteristics of an HoCrO3 (HCO) based memristor device. The device comprising Ag/HCO/fluorine doped tin oxide shows stable bipolar resistive switching with a good ON/OFF resistance ratio between high resistance state (HRS) and low resistance state (LRS). Furthermore, the device is capable to show excellent endurance and retentivity characteristics over a period of 30 days. The statistical distribution of the switching parameters (voltage and resistance) show a narrow distribution, hinting reliable memory performance and stability of the device. Impedance spectroscopy analysis of the HRS and LRS illustrates a bulk resistance effect, which is due to formation of multiple ionic conductive channels in the film with oxygen vacancies. Indeed, conducting channels formed by oxygen vacancies are further confirmed by calculating the temperature coefficient of resistance through resistance vs temperature measurements. We believe that these results will be helpful in developing future memory devices based on resistive switching . © 2020 IOP Publishing Ltd.
