Abstract :
Resistive random access memories (RRAMs) are deemed as one type of a few promising alternative non-volatile memories (NVMs) to the mainstreamNAND/NOR flash. The switching mechanisms for RRAMs, however, remain murky and a quantitative or semi-empiricalmodel is urgently needed. This talk reviews the status of modeling switching mechanisms in both TMO (transition metal oxide) RRAMs and carbon-based RRAMs, and describes recent research progress at authors´ group in Tsinghua University.
