Abstract

We report on an experimental study of resistive switching (RS) of individual dislocations in Ag/Ge/Si(001) memristors by combined grazing incidence ion sputtering of the Ag electrodes and application of Conductive Atomic Force Microscopy to provide an electrical contact to individual Ag-filled dislocations in the Ge layer. Two types of RS were observed corresponding to two different RS mechanisms: (i) drift of Ag+ ions inside the dislocation cores and (ii) RedOx reactions in residual GeO x in the etch pits on the Ge layer surface.
