  • Abstract
    We demonstrate an excellent Resistive Random Access Memory (RRAM) device based on Yttria Stabilized Zirconia (YSZ). Robust multilevel operation is achieved using incremental step pulse programming. Using this scheme, we realize excellent reliability, and further, demonstrate that oxygen vacancy-based cells are superior to metallic filament cells for multilevel operation.
