Two- and Three-Terminal Resistive Switches: Nanometer-Scale Memristors and Memistors Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • AbstractThe logical relationship between two previously defined memory resistors is revealed by constructing and experimentally demonstrating a threeterminal memistor equivalent circuit using two twoterminal memristors. A technique is then presented, using nanoimprint lithography in combination with angle evaporation, to fabricate a single nanoscale device with a footprint of 4F2, where F is the minimum lithographic feature size, that can be operated as either a twoterminal lateral memristor or a threeterminal memistor inside a crossbar structure. These devices exhibit repeatable bipolar nonvolatile switching behavior with up to 103 ON/OFF conductance ratios, as well as the desired threeterminal behavior.
