A major challenge of resistive switching memory (resistive random access memory (RRAM)) for future application is how to reduce the fluctuation of the resistive switching parameters. In this letter, with a statistical methodology, we have systematically analyzed the reset statistics of the conductive bridge random access memory (CBRAM) with a Cu/HfO2/Pt structure which displays bipolar switching property. The experimental observations show that the distributions of the reset voltage (V reset) and reset current (I reset) are greatly influenced by the initial on-state resistance (R on) which is closely related to the size of the conductive filament (CF) before the reset process. The reset voltage increases and the current decreases with the on-state resistance, respectively, according to the scatter plots of the experimental data. Using resistance screening method, the statistical data of the reset voltage and current are decomposed into several ranges and the distributions of them in each range are analyzed by the Weibull model. Both the Weibull slopes of the reset voltage and current are demonstrated to be independent of the on-state resistance which indicates that no CF dissolution occurs before the reset point. The scale factor of the reset voltage increases with on-state resistance while that of the reset current decreases with it. These behaviors are fully in consistency with the thermal dissolution model, which gives an insight on the physical mechanism of the reset switching. Our work has provided an inspiration on effectively reducing the variation of the switching parameters of RRAM devices.

Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is a devastating complication of epilepsy with possible sex-specific risk factors, although the exact relationship between sex and SUDEP remains unclear. To investigate this, we studied Kcna1 knockout (Kcna1) mice, which lack voltage-gated Kv1.1 channel subunits and are widely used as a SUDEP model that mirrors key features in humans.

Two-dimensional (2D) materials hold significant potential for the development of neuromorphic computing architectures owing to their exceptional electrical tunability, mechanical flexibility, and compatibility with heterointegration. However, the practical implementation of 2D memristors in neuromorphic computing is often hindered by the challenges of simultaneously achieving low latency and low energy consumption. Here, we demonstrate memristors based on 2D cobalt phosphorus trisulfide (CoPS), which achieve impressive performance metrics including high switching speed (20 ns), low switching energy (1.

Memristors stand out as promising components in the landscape of memory and computing. Memristors are generally defined by a conductance mechanism containing a state variable that imparts a memory effect. The current-voltage cycling causes transitions of conductance, which are determined by different physical mechanisms, such as the formation of conducting filaments in an insulating surrounding.

Among the transition metal oxides, hematite (α-FeO) has been widely used in the preparation of memristors because of its excellent physical and chemical properties. In this paper, α-FeO nanowire arrays with a preferred orientation along the [110] direction were prepared by a facile hydrothermal method and annealing treatment on the FTO substrate, and then α-FeO nanowire array-based Au/α-FeO/FTO memristors were obtained by plating the Au electrodes on the as-prepared α-FeO nanowire arrays. The as-prepared α-FeO nanowire array-based Au/α-FeO/FTO memristors have demonstrated stable nonvolatile bipolar resistive switching behaviors with a high resistive switching ratio of about two orders of magnitude, good resistance retention (up to 10 s), and ultralow set voltage (V = +2.
