Abstrakt: The electrical characteristics and resistive switching properties of memristive devices have been studied in a wide temperature range. The insulator and electrode materials of these devices (silicon oxide and titanium nitride, respectively) are fully compatible with conventional complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) fabrication processes. Silicon oxide is also obtained through the low-temperature chemical vapor deposition method. It is revealed that the as-fabricated devices do not require electroforming but their resistance state cannot be stored before thermal treatment. After the thermal treatment, the devices exhibit bipolar-type resistive switching with synaptic behavior. The conduction mechanisms in the device stack are associated with the effect of traps in the insulator, which form filaments in the places where the electric field is concentrated. The filaments shortcut the capacitance of the stack to different degrees in the high-resistance state (HRS) and in the low-resistance state (LRS). As a result, the electron transport possesses an activation nature with relatively low values of activation energy in an HRS. On the contrary, Ohm's law and tunneling are observed in an LRS. CMOS-compatible materials and low-temperature fabrication techniques enable the easy integration of the studied resistive-switching devices with traditional analog-digital circuits to implement new-generation hardware neuromorphic systems.
