Abstract
We report, for the first time, the novel concept of ultrathin (~10nm) W/NbOx/Pt device with both threshold switching (TS) and memory switching (MS) characteristics. Excellent TS characteristics of NbO2, such as high temperature stability (~160°C), fast switching speed (~22ns), good switching uniformity, and extreme scalability of device area (φ~10nm)/thickness (~10nm) were obtained. By oxidizing NbO2, we can form ultrathin Nb2O5/NbO2 stack layer for hybrid memory devices with both TS and MS. Without additional selector device, 1Kb cross-point hybrid memory device without SET/RESET disturbance up to 106 cycles was demonstrated.
