  • Abstract
    ReRAM cell performance and reliability have been improved through process optimization. Encapsulated ReRAM cell with SiN capping layer shows excellent endurance, read disturb, and retention characteristics. We demonstrated that effective oxygen barrier encapsulation is critical for keeping ReRAM performance in an aggressively scaled technology node.
