Abstract
While two-dimensional (2D) MoS2 has recently shown promise as a material for resistive random-access memory (RRAM) devices due to its demonstrated resistive switching (RS) characteristics, its practical application faces a significant challenge in industry regarding its limited yield and endurance. Our earlier work introduced an effective switching layer model to understand RS behavior in both mono- and multi-layered MoS2. However, functioning as a phenomenological percolation modeling tool, it lacks the capability to accurately simulate the intricate current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of the device, thereby hindering its practical applicability in 2D RRAM research. In contrast to the established conductive filament model for oxide-based RRAM, the RS mechanism in 2D RRAM remains elusive. This paper presents a novel simulator aimed at providing an intuitive, visual representation of the stochastic behaviors involved in the RS process of multi-layer 2D MoS2 RRAM devices. Building upon the previously proposed phenomenological simulator for 2D RRAM, users can now simulate both the I-V characteristics and the resistive switching behaviors of the RRAM devices. Through comparison with experimental data, it was observed that yield and endurance characteristics are linked to defect distributions in MoS2.
