Schottky Emission Distance and Barrier Height Properties of Bipolar Switching Gd:SiOx RRAM Devices under Different Oxygen Concentration Environments

Abstract: In this study, the hopping conduction distance and bipolar switching properties of the Gd:SiOx thin film by (radio frequency, rf) rf sputtering technology for applications in RRAM devices were calculated and investigated. To discuss and verify the electrical switching mechanism in various different constant compliance currents, the typical current versus applied voltage (I-V) characteristics of gadolinium oxide RRAM devices was transferred and fitted. Finally, the transmission electrons’ switching behavior bet… Show more

“…To calculate the curve, the Schottky conduction mechanism equation was transformed to the I-V curves fitting the RRAM devices. For the hopping conduction, where d, Φ T , v 0 , N and a are film thickness, barrier height of hopping, intrinsic vibration frequency, the density of space charge, and mean hopping distance, respectively [ 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 ].…”

“…For the LRS and HRS states, the slope value of the Schottky emission conduction in the I–V curves of the RRAM devices was calculated as 7.5 and 2.85, respectively. The reciprocal slope value was calculated for the Schottky emission distance value, and the intercept was calculated for the barrier height value of the Schottky conduction equation [ 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 ].…”

“…Many different conduction models have been proposed for the HRS, including Schottky emission [41,42,43,44], trap-assisted tunneling [45,46,47], Poole–Frenkel conduction [43,48], space-charge limited current [49,50,51,52], thermally activated hopping [53,54], and the Quantum Point Contact model (QPC) [55,56,57,58,59,60,61], among others. Specifically, the QPC model can provide a smooth transition from tunneling in the HRS to Ohmic conduction in the LRS for several kinds of RS devices [58,59,60,61].…”
