Helical Structures for Dual Functional Emerging Memory Technologies in Volatile and Nonvolatile Switching Behaviors
As AI applications continue to grow, highly scalable, low-power memory technologies are needed to reduce the energy demands of conventional computing architectures. This work investigates nonvolatile switching in sputtered helical HfOx ReRAM (Resistive Random Access Memory) devices ranging from 15-100 µm. The memory devices were characterized electrically using a Keysight B1500A to study the impact of device area. By identifying conditions that enable the switching mode architecture, this work explores the potential of helical HfOₓ ReRAM as a bifunctional device for nonvolatile memory storage and transient switching for neuromorphic computing.
