Compared with Cu/ZrO2/Pt structures, the Pt/ZrO2/Pt structures exhibit better resistive switching properties such as the higher resistance ratio of OFF/ON states, the longer switch- ing cycles and narrow distribution of OFF state resistance (Roff). The switching mechanism in the Pt/ZrO2/ Pt structure can be attributed to the formation and rupture of oxygen vacancy filaments; while in the Cu/ZrO2/Pt structure, there exist both oxygen vacancy filaments and Cu filaments. The formation of Cu filaments is related to the redox reaction of Cu electrode under the applied voltage. The inhomoge- neous dispersive injection of Cu ions results in the dispersive Ro~ and significant decrease of operate voltage, Schematic diagrams of the formation of conductive filaments and the failure mechanism in the Cu/ZrO2/ Pt structures are also proposed.展开更多
