Understanding of the microscopic mechanisms governing resistive switching in valence change memories (VCMs)
Among the various emerging devices expected to replace conventional Flash memories, Resistive Random Access Memories (ReRAM) are currently attracting a strong scientific and industrial interest. Their operations are based on the switching between a low resistive and a high resistive state, which represents the two binary states. This PhD research project will focus on the […] >>
