Abstract :
Trivalent metal ions (Al and Cr) were doped into a solution-synthesized TiO2 film, and the corresponding resistive switching characteristics were investigated in relation to the oxygen vacancies and chemical composition. In contrast to the pure TiO2 sample, the doped samples exhibited a better switching uniformity and a lower set voltage (Vset), which was attributed to the enhanced oxygen vacancy generation. Based on these results, the doping effects can be controlled in a continuous manner by selecting dopants based on the valence state of doped ions.
