Abstract :
For the first time, very fast (10ns at even Reset) and high reliable (150°C 100h) ReRAM memory was demonstrated at 54 nm 256k bits array. Reset current successfully decreased up to 20uA using Al2O3 which acts as a tunnel barrier and filament source in TiO2/Al2O3 stack. From statistical analysis, the possibility of increasing array size and the key factor of resistance distribution were investigated.
