Abstract:
Non-volatile storage elements having a reversible resistivity-switching element and techniques for fabricating the same are disclosed herein. The reversible resistivity-switching element may be formed by depositing an oxygen diffusion resistant material (e.g., heavily doped Si, W, WN) over the top electrode. A trap passivation material (e.g., fluorine, nitrogen, hydrogen, deuterium) may be incorporated into one or more of the bottom electrode, a metal oxide region, or the top electrode of the reversible resistivity-switching element. One embodiment includes a reversible resistivity-switching element having a bi-layer capping layer between the metal oxide and the top electrode. Fabricating the device may include depositing (un-reacted) titanium and depositing titanium oxide in situ without air break. One embodiment includes incorporating titanium into the metal oxide of the reversible resistivity-switching element. The titanium might be implanted into the metal oxide while depositing the metal oxide, or after deposition of the metal oxide.

Abstract:
A MIIIM diode and method of fabricating are disclosed. In one aspect, the MIIIM diode comprises a first metal electrode, a first region comprising a first insulator material having an interface with the first metal electrode, a second region comprising a second insulator material having an interface with the first insulator material, a third region comprising a third insulator material having an interface with the second insulator material, and a second metal electrode having an interface with the third insulator material. At least one of the first, second, or third insulator materials is lanthanum oxide.
