In unipolar resistance switching of NiO capacitors, Joule heating in the conducting channels should cause a strong nonlinearity in the low resistance state current-voltage (I-V) curves. Due to the percolating nature of the conducting channels, the reset current I R , can be scaled to the nonlinear coefficient B o of the I-V curves, i.e., I R ∝ B o -x . This scaling relationship can be used to predict reset voltages, independent of NiO capacitor size; it can also be applied to TiO 2 and FeO y capacitors. Using this relation, we developed an error correction scheme to provide a clear window for separating reset and set voltages in memory operations. a) Electronic mail: twnoh@snu.ac.kr.
