Abstract :
A new oxygen diffusion reliability model for a high-density bipolar ReRAM is developed based on hopping conduction in filaments, which allows statistical predication of activation energy. The filament in the active cells is confirmed by EBAC and TEM directly for the first time. With optimized filament size, a 256-kbit ReRAM with long-term retention exceeding 10 years at 85°C is successfully demonstrated.
