Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how resistance switching in transition metal oxide materials like TiO involves the formation and dissolution of oxygen vacancy filaments through ion migration and Joule heating.
- By using liquid electrolytes as the top electrode layer instead of metal, researchers can better observe the processes involved in oxygen vacancy redistribution without interference from the electrodes.
- The experiments reveal that while oxygen loss increases the conductivity of TiO films, it is the use of a conductive aqueous electrolyte that triggers the formation of conductive filaments, highlighting the role of Joule heating in enhancing vacancy mobility.
