Резистивное переключение в структурах металл-оксид-полупроводник с наноостровками GeSi на подложке кремния

Abstract

The self-assembled GeSi nanoislands built into the semiconductor-insulator interface of the MOS-structures based on Si(001) with SiOx and ZrO2(Y) oxide layers deposited by magnetron sputtering have been shown to initiate bipolar resistive switching without preliminary electroforming. The current-voltage curves and electrical parameters of the MOS-structures in the high-resistance state and in the low-resistance state have been studied. A change in the built-in charge in the dielectric near the insulator-semiconductor interface during resistive switching is established and associated with the formation and destruction of conductive filaments. The light-stimulated resistive switching of MOS-structures with ZrO2(Y) layer from the high-resistance to the low-resistance state is observed, which is associated with an increase in the conductivity of the space-charge region in the Si substrate due to interband optical absorption in Si, which causes a voltage redistribution between Si and ZrO2(Y) layer. A difference in the shape of the small signal photo-voltage spectra of MOS-structures is found in the spectral region of intrinsic photosensitivity of Si in the high and low resistance states due to the leakage of photo-excited charge carriers from Si to the metal electrode through filaments.
