研究目的
Investigating the asymmetric resistive switching dynamics in BaTiO3 tunnel junctions and its implications for device performance.
研究成果
The asymmetric resistive switching dynamics in BaTiO3 tunnel junctions are linked to the presence of an electric field imprint, affecting domain growth and switching. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for applications like neuromorphic computing, where the time-dependent evolution of potentials triggering responses is key.
研究不足
The study acknowledges the presence of an imprint field likely associated with unswitchable polar regions, which induces asymmetric domain growth and switching. The asymmetry in switching dynamics poses challenges for symmetric switching in applications.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study focuses on the resistive switching dynamics in ferroelectric BaTiO3 tunnel junctions, using triangular V(t) pulses of different amplitude and frequency for electric characterization.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Nanometric ferroelectric capacitors were fabricated by pulsed laser deposition, growing thin films of ferroelectric BTO on top of an epitaxial metallic LSMO layer deposited on SrTiO3(001) substrates.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
AixACCT TFAnalyser2000 platform for I-V measurements, MikroMasch silicon cantilevers with Pt coating for piezoforce microscopy.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The polarization state of the junctions was set by applying a triangular pulse of a given amplitude and duration, with measurements done at room temperature.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The electroresistance (TER) was quantified by TER = [R(HRS) ?R(LRS)]/R(LRS), where R(HRS) and R(LRS) are the junction resistance in HRS or LRS states, respectively.
