Abstract
We herein present a novel unidirectional threshold selector for cross-point bipolar RRAM array. The proposed Ag/amorphous Si based threshold selector showed excellent threshold characteristics in positive field, such as high selectivity (~ 105), steep slope (< 5 mV/decade) and low off-state current (< 300 pA). Meanwhile, the selector exhibited rectifying characteristics in the high resistance state as well and the rectification ratio was as high as 103 at ± 1.5 V. Nevertheless, due to the high reverse current about 9 mA at − 3 V, this unidirectional threshold selector can be used as a selection element for bipolar-type RRAM. By integrating a bipolar RRAM device with the selector, experiments showed that the undesired sneak was significantly suppressed, indicating its potentiality for high-density integrated nonvolatile memory applications.
