Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A resistive-switching memory element is described. The memory element includes a first electrode, a porous layer over the first electrode including a point defect embedded in a plurality of pores of the porous layer, and a second electrode over the porous layer, wherein the nonvolatile memory element is configured to switch between a high resistive state and a low resistive state.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed: 1. A method for forming a nonvolatile memory element, the method comprising: depositing a first electrode on a substrate; depositing a layer on the first electrode using a porogen-containing precursor, wherein the porogen-containing precursor comprises a porogen; exposing the deposited layer to a vapor-based deposition precursor, wherein the vapor-based deposition precursor comprises one of Hf, Ti, Ru, or Ni, wherein, after exposing the deposited layer t…
