Abstract

Pt/Ta2 O5 /HfO2- x /Ti resistive switching memory with a new circuit design is presented as a feasible candidate to succeed multilevel-cell (MLC) NAND flash memory. This device has the following characteristics: 3 bit MLC, electroforming-free, self-rectifying, much higher cell resistance than interconnection wire resistance, low voltage operation, low power consumption, long-term reliability, and only an electronic switching mechanism, without an ionic-motion-related mechanism.
