Abstract :
In this paper, the recent progress on the understandings of the switching mechanisms in oxide resistive switching memory (RRAM) is reviewed. Several representative device modeling approaches including numerical discretized models, numerical continuous models and analytical compact models are discussed using HfOx bipolar RRAM as a model system. The future challenges of RRAM modeling are finally discussed.
