Abstract:
In this paper, we report highly stable and bipolar resistive switching effects of Ag/Graphene oxide thinfilm/Ag devices. The graphene-oxide (GO) thinfilms were prepared on Ag/SiO2/Si substrates by spin-coating technique. The Ag/GO/Ag devices showed a steady and bipolar resistive switching characteristic. The resistance switching from low resistance state (LRS) and high resistance state (HRS) with the resistance ratio of HRS to LRS of about 10 which was attained at a voltage bias of 0.1 V. Based on the filamentary conduction model, the dominant conduction mechanism of switching effect was well explained. Our results show GO can be a promising candidate for future development of nonvolatile memory devices.
