1-Selector 1-Memristor Configuration with Multifunctional a-IGZO Memristive Devices Fabricated at Room Temperature

Serving as neuromorphic hardware accelerators, memristors play a crucial role in large-scale neuromorphic computing. Herein, two-terminal memristors utilizing amorphous indium-gallium-zinc oxide (a-IGZO) are fabricated through room-temperature sputtering. The electrical characteristics of these memristors are effectively modulated by varying the oxygen flow during the deposition process. The optimized a-IGZO memristor, fabricated under 3 sccm oxygen flow, presents a 5 × 103 ratio between its high- and low-resistance states, which can be maintained over 1 × 104 s with minimal degradation. Meanwhile, desirable properties such as electroforming-free and self-compliance, crucial for low-energy consumption, are also obtained in the a-IGZO memristor. Moreover, analog conductance switching is observed, demonstrating an interface-type behavior, as evidenced by its device-size-dependent performance. The coexistence of negative differential resistance with analog switching is attributed to the migration of oxygen vacancies and the trapping/detrapping of charges. Furthermore, the device demonstrates optical storage capabilities by exploiting the optical properties of a-IGZO, which can stably operate for up to 50 sweep cycles. Various synaptic functions have been demonstrated, including paired-pulse facilitation and spike-timing-dependent plasticity. These functionalities contribute to a simulated recognition accuracy of 90% for handwritten digits. Importantly, a one-selector one-memristor (1S1M) architecture is successfully constructed at room temperature by integrating a-IGZO memristor on a TaOx-based selector. This architecture exhibits a 107 on/off ratio, demonstrating its potential to suppress sneak currents among adjacent units in a memristor crossbar.
