Abstract
Unipolar resistive switching devices are investigated for nonvolatile memory applications in a metal-insulator-metal structure in which the insulator layer is based on sol-gel-derived zinc oxide (ZnO) films prepared by a simple spin-coating process followed by thermal annealing. Fast programming ( les 50 ns) and a high off-to-on resistance ratio ( ges 10 <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">4</sup> ) is demonstrated. The influences on the switching behaviors according to the crystallinity of the ZnO films are studied as a function of the annealing temperature. In addition, the devices are fabricated on a flexible plastic substrate and exhibit excellent durability upon repeated bending tests, demonstrating their potential for flexible low-cost memory devices.
