  • Patent number: 11223013
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a conductive bridge semiconductor device and a method of manufacturing the same. The conductive bridge semiconductor device includes a lower electrode, a resistive switching functional layer, an ion barrier layer and an active upper electrode from bottom to top, wherein the ion barrier layer is provided with certain holes through which active conductive ions pass. Based on this structure, the precise designing of the holes on the barrier layer facilitates the modulation of the quantity, size and density of the conduction paths in the conductive bridge semiconductor device, which enables that the conductive bridge semiconductor device can be modulated to be a nonvolatile conductive bridge resistive random access memory or a volatile conductive bridge selector. Based on the above method, ultra-low power nonvolatile conductive bridge memory and high driving-current volatile conductive bridge selector with controllable polarity are completed.
