Introduction: Intrinsic resistive switching properties of Pt/TiO2-x/TiO2/Pt crossbar memory array has been examined using the crossbar (4×4) arrays fabricated by using DC/RF sputtering under specific conditions at room temperature. Materials and Methods: The growth of filament is envisaged from bottom electrode (BE) towards the top electrode (TE) by forming conducting nano-filaments across TiO2/TiO2-x bilayer stack. Non-linear pinched hysteresis curve (a signature of memristor) is evident from I-V plot measured using Pt/TiO2-x /TiO2/Pt bilayer device (a single cell amongst the 4×4 array is used). It is found that the observed I-V profile shows two distinguishable regions of switching symmetrically in both SET and RESET cycle. Distinguishable potential profiles are evident from I-V curve; in which region-1 relates to the electroformation prior to switching and region-2 shows the switching to ON state (LRS). It is observed that upon reversing the polarity, bipolar switching (set and reset) is evident from the facile symmetric pinched hysteresis profile. Obtaining such a facile switching is attributed to the desired composition of Titania layers i.e. the rutile TiO2 (stoichiometric) as the first layer obtained via controlled post annealing (650oC/1h) process onto which TiO2-x (anatase) is formed (350oC/1h). Results: These controlled processes adapted during the fabrication step help manipulate the desired potential barrier between metal (Pt) and TiO2 interface. Interestingly, this controlled process variation is found to be crucial for measuring the switching characteristics expected in Titania based memristor. In order to ensure the formation of rutile and anatase phases, XPS, XRD and HRSEM analyses have been carried out. Conclusion: Finally, the reliability of bilayer memristive structure is investigated by monitoring the retention (104 s) and endurance tests which ensured the reproducibility over 10,000 cycles.

The article presents the results of the development and study of a combined circuitry (compact) model of thin metal oxide films based memristive elements, which makes it possible to simulate both bipolar switching processes and multilevel tuning of the memristor conductivity taking into account the statistical variability of parameters for both device-to-device and cycle-to-cycle switching. The equivalent circuit of the memristive element and the equation system of the proposed model are considered. The software implementation of the model in the MATLAB has been made. The results of modeling static current-voltage characteristics and transient processes during bipolar switching and multilevel turning of the conductivity of memristive elements are obtained. A good agreement between the simulation results and the measured current-voltage characteristics of memristors based on TiOx films (30 nm) and bilayer TiO2/Al2O3 structures (60 nm/5 nm) is demonstrated.
