研究目的
Investigating the tunability of electrical switching behaviors in WOx thin films by varying film thickness.
研究成果
The research demonstrates that electrical switching behaviors in WOx thin films can be tuned by varying film thickness, transitioning from CRS to TS as thickness increases from 50 nm to 100 nm. This tunability is attributed to defect-related dynamic evolution of conductive filaments. The findings suggest that WOx thin films have potential for multifunctional device applications, such as in memory and selector elements, and future studies could explore broader thickness ranges and integration into practical devices.
研究不足
The study is limited to specific thicknesses (50 nm and 100 nm) and may not cover the full range of possible thickness variations. The chemical solution method and specific materials used might not be generalizable to other fabrication techniques or materials. Potential areas for optimization include exploring intermediate thicknesses and other material compositions.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study aimed to investigate how film thickness affects electrical switching behaviors in WOx thin films, using a chemical solution method for fabrication and electrical characterization with a semiconductor parameter analyzer.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
WOx thin films were fabricated on FTO substrates with thicknesses of 50 nm and 100 nm, achieved by spinning the precursor solution 2 and 4 times, respectively.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Equipment includes a Filmetrics F50-UV thin-film analyzer for thickness measurement, ion sputtering for Pt top electrode deposition, and an Agilent B1500A semiconductor parameter analyzer for electrical measurements. Materials include FTO substrates, tungstic acid precursor solution (prepared from hydrogen peroxide and W powders), thiourea, and Pt.
4：Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The precursor solution was stirred for 24 hours, thiourea added and stirred for 3 hours, spun onto FTO substrates, heated at 400°C for 30 minutes, Pt top electrodes deposited by ion sputtering, and electrical characteristics measured with bias applied to FTO bottom electrode and Pt top electrode grounded.
5：Data Analysis Methods:
I-V sweep curves were analyzed to identify switching behaviors (CRS and TS), retention tests were performed, and conductive mechanisms were fitted using Ohmic conduction and SCLC models.
