Abstract

Universal, giant and nonvolatile resistive switching is demonstrated for oxide tunnel junctions with ferroelectric PbZr0.2 Ti0.8 O3 , ferroelectric BaTiO3, and paraelectric SrTiO3 tunnel barriers. The effects are caused by reversible migration of oxygen vacancies between the tunnel barrier and bottom La2/3 Sr1/3 MnO3 electrode. The switching process, which is driven by large electric fields, is efficient down to a temperature of 5 K.
