A self-rectifying unipolar HfOx based RRAM using doped germanium bottom electrode by Liu, W. J., Tran, Xuan Anh, Sun, Xiaowei, Yu, Hongyu

“…Owning to Schottky barrier between defect states in HfOx layer and n-Ge substrate, RRAM cells possess a self-rectifying behavior in LRS which eliminates the read-out errors induced by leakage current paths in cross-bar array structure. The demonstrated RRAM device shows high ON/OFF ratio (>5 × 102 @ 0.5 V), and its effective Schottky barrier height is also addressed. …”
