Abstract

AbstractAlthough there have been attempts to use non‐lead based halide perovskite materials as insulating layers for resistive switching memory, the ratio of low resistance state (LRS) to high resistance state (HRS) ( = ON/OFF ratio) and/or endurance is reported to be mostly lower than 103. Resistive switching memory characteristics of layered (BzA)2CuBr4 (BzA = C6H5CH2NH3) perovskite with high ON/OFF ratio and long endurance are reported here. The X‐ray diffraction (XRD) pattern of the deposited (BzA)2CuBr4 layer shows highly oriented (00l) planes perpendicular to a Pt substrate. An Ag/PMMA/(BzA)2CuBr4/Pt device shows bipolar switching behavior. A forming step at around +0.5 V is observed before the repeated bipolar switching at the SET voltage of +0.2 V and RESET voltage of ‐0.3 V. The ON/OFF ratio as high as =108 is monitored along with an endurance of ≈2000 cycles and retention time over 1000 s. The high ON/OFF ratio enables multilevel storage characteristics as confirmed by changing the compliance currents. Ohmic conduction at the LRS and Schottky emission at HRS are involved in electrochemical metallization process. The bipolar resistive switching property is retained after storing the device at ambient condition under relative humidity of about 50% for 2 weeks, which indicates that (BzA)2CuBr4 is stable memory material.
