Abstract
Conventional memory technologies are facing enormous problems with downscaling, and are hence unable to fulfill the requirement of big data storage generated by a huge explosion of digital information. A resistive random access memory device (RRAM) is one of the most emerging technologies for next-generation computing data storage owing to its high-density stacking, ultrafast switching speed, high non-volatility, multilevel data storage, low power consumption, and simple device structure. In this work, colloidal MoS2 quantum dots (QDs) embedded in an insulating matrix of poly-(4vinylpyridine) (PVP) were used as an active layer to fabricate a RRAM device. The MoS2 QDs-PVP based RRAM device reveals an excellent nonvolatile resistive switching (RS) behavior with a maximum current on-off ratio (ION/IOFF) of 105. High endurance, long retention time, and successive “write-read-erase-read” cycles indicate high-performance RRAM characteristics. The ultimate power consumption by this RRAM device is considerably low for energy saving. In addition, the MoS2 QDs-PVP based device shows RS behavior even at 130 °C. High ION/IOFF, low operating power, high endurance, long retention time, and excellent stability with temperatures reveal that the MoS2 QDs-PVP based device can be a promising candidate for high-performance low power RRAM devices that can be operated at relatively higher temperatures.
