The polarity-dependent resistive-switching across metal-Pr0.7Ca0.3MnO3 interfaces is investigated. The data suggest that shallow defects in the interface dominate the switching. Their density and fluctuation, therefore, will ultimately limit the device size. While the defects generated/annihilated by the pulses and the associated carrier depletion seem to play the major role at lower defect density, the defect correlations and their associated hopping ranges appear to dominate at higher defect density. Therefore, the switching characteristics, especially the size-scalability, may be altered through interface treatments.

In this work, vertical tunnel field-effect transistors (v-TFETs) based on vertically stacked heretojunctions from 2D transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) materials are studied by atomistic quantum transport simulations. The switching mechanism of v-TFET is found to be different from previous predictions. As a consequence of this switching mechanism, the extension region, where the materials are not stacked over is found to be critical for turning off the v-TFET. This extension region makes the scaling of v-TFETs challenging. In addition, due to the presence of both positive and negative charges inside the channel, v-TFETs also exhibit negative capacitance. As a result, v-TFETs have good energy-delay products and are one of the promising candidates for low power applications.
Films produced by assembling bare gold clusters well beyond the electrical percolation threshold show a resistive switching behavior whose investigation has started only recently. Here we address the challenge to charaterize the resistance of a nanogranular film starting from limited information on the structure at the microscopic scale by the means of Bruggemans approach to multicomponent media, within the framework of Effective Medium Approximations. The approach is used to build a model that proves that the observed resistive switching can be explained by thermally regulated local structural rearrangements.
Low temperature growth Pr0.7Ca0.3MnO3 (PCMO) thin film showed high performance in electric field induced resistance switching (RS). To understand the micro-mechanism of RS in Metal/PCMO/Metal devices, structure evolution of PCMO under external electric field monitored inside transmission electron microscope (TEM) were performed. Evolution of the modulation stripe in as-grown PCMO sample was investigated when applying electric field. The new-generated modulation stripe gradually disappeared. These results indicate that oxygen ion migration plays a key role in RS.
The hysteretic and reversible polarity-dependent resistive switch driven by electric pulses is studied in both Ag/Pr0.7Ca0.3MnO3/YBa2Cu3O7 sandwiches and single-layer Pr0.7Ca0.3MnO3 strips. The data demonstrate that the switch takes place at the Ag-Pr0.7Ca0.3MnO3 interface. A model, which describes the data well, is proposed. We further suggest that electrochemical diffusion is the cause for the switch.
We report on resistive switching of memristive electrochemical metallization devices using 3D kinetic Monte Carlo simulations describing the transport of ions through a solid state electrolyte of an Ag/TiO$_{text{x}}$/Pt thin layer system. The ion transport model is consistently coupled with solvers for the electric field and thermal diffusion. We show that the model is able to describe not only the formation of conducting filaments but also its dissolution. Furthermore, we calculate realistic current-voltage characteristics and resistive switching kinetics. Finally, we discuss in detail the influence of both the electric field and the local heat on the switching processes of the device.
