Resistive switching memory performance in oxide hetero-nanocrystals with well-controlled interfaces

For realization of new informative systems, the memristor working like synapse has drawn much attention. We developed isolated high-density Fe3O4 nanocrystals on Ge nuclei/Si with uniform and high resistive switching performance using low-temperature growth. The Fe3O4 nanocrystals on Ge nuclei had a well-controlled interface (Fe3O4/GeOx/Ge) composed of high-crystallinity Fe3O4 and high-quality GeOx layers. The nanocrystals showed uniform...
