Metal oxide resistive switches are increasingly important as possible artificial synapses in next generation neuromorphic networks. Nevertheless, there is still no codified set of tools for studying properties of the devices. To this end, we demonstrate electron beam induced current measurements as a powerful method to monitor the development of local resistive switching in TiO2 based devices. By comparing beam-energy dependent electron beam induced currents with Monte Carlo simulations of the energy absorption in different device layers, it is possible to deconstruct the origins of filament image formation and relate this to both morphological changes and the state of the switch. By clarifying the contrast mechanisms in electron beam induced current microscopy it is possible to gain new insights into the scaling of the resistive switching phenomenon and observe the formation of a current leakage region around the switching filament. Additionally, analysis of symmetric device structures reveals propagating polarization domains.

We studied the resistive memory switching in pulsed laser deposited amorphous LaHoO3 (LHO) thin films for non-volatile resistive random access memory (RRAM) applications. Nonpolar resistive switching (RS) was achieved in PtLHOPt memory cells with all
four possible RS modes ( positive unipolar, positive bipolar, negative unipolar, and negative bipolar) having high RON and ROFF ratios (in the range of 104 to 105) and non-overlapping switching voltages (set voltage, VON 3.6 to 4.2 V and reset voltage, VOFF 1.3 to 1.6 V) with a small variation of about 5 to 8 percent. X ray photoelectron spectroscopic studies together with temperature dependent switching characteristics revealed the formation of metallic holmium (Ho) and oxygen vacancies (VO) constituted conductive nanofilaments (CNFs) in the low resistance state (LRS). Detailed analysis of current versus voltage characteristics further corroborated the formation of CNFs based on metal like (Ohmic) conduction in LRS. Simmons Schottky emission was found to be the dominant charge transport mechanism in the high resistance state.
Electron beam induced current (EBIC) is a powerful characterization technique which offers the high spatial resolution needed to study polycrystalline solar cells. Ideally, an EBIC measurement reflects the spatially resolved quantum efficiency of the
device. In this work, a model for EBIC measurements is presented which applies when recombination within the depletion region is substantial. This model is motivated by cross-sectional EBIC experiments on CdS-CdTe photovoltaic cells which show that the maximum efficiency of carrier collection is less than 100 % and varies throughout the depletion region. The model can reproduce experimental results only if the mobility-lifetime product $mutau$ is spatially varying within the depletion region. The reduced collection efficiency is speculated to be related to high-injection effects, and the resulting increased radiative recombination.
We report the magnetic response of Au/GdFeCo bilayers to optical irradiation of the Au surface. For bilayers with Au thickness greater than 50 nm, the great majority of energy is absorbed by the Au electrons, creating an initial temperature different
ial of thousands of Kelvin between the Au and GdFeCo layers. The resulting electronic heat currents between the Au and GdFeCo layers last for several picoseconds with energy flux in excess of 2 TW m-2, and provide sufficient heating to the GdFeCo electrons to induce deterministic reversal of the magnetic moment.
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 tr
ansport 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.
The discovery of new mechanisms of controlling magnetic properties by electric fields or currents furthers the fundamental understanding of magnetism and has important implications for practical use. Here, we present a novel approach of utilizing res
istive switching to control magnetic anisotropy. We study a ferromagnetic oxide that exhibits an electrically triggered metal-to-insulator phase transition producing a volatile resistive switching. This switching occurs in a characteristic spatial pattern: the formation of a transverse insulating barrier inside a metallic matrix resulting in an unusual ferromagnetic/paramagnetic/ferromagnetic configuration. We found that the formation of this voltage-driven paramagnetic insulating barrier is accompanied by the emergence of a strong uniaxial magnetic anisotropy that overpowers the intrinsic material anisotropy. Our results demonstrate that resistive switching is an effective tool for manipulating magnetic properties. Because resistive switching can be induced in a very broad range of materials, our findings could enable a new class of voltage-controlled magnetism systems.
