Spontaneous current constriction in threshold switching devices
Today the phenomenon underlying threshold switching of Oxide-based resistive memories is an unresolved debate. Here, the authors report that the TaOx-based conductive filament formation, the current density and temperature are not-uniform distributions and electric field domains are not required.
