Abstract :
Bipolar switching is reported for the first time using solution deposited amorphous zinc-tin-oxide (ZTO). The impact of compliance current (CC) on the SET voltage, the magnitude of the low and high resistance states, and the switching ratio is investigated for Al/ZTO/Ir resistive random access memory (RRAM) devices.
