Patent number: 11276820Abstract: Provided is a memristor that can be manufactured at a low temperature, and does not include metals of which resources might be depleted. This memristor includes a first electrode, a second electrode, and a memristor layer of an oxide having elements of Ga, Sn, and oxygen, disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode. When voltage is applied to the first electrode with respect to the second electrode, the voltage being positive or negative, a current flows; when voltage of a data-set voltage value is applied, a state is transitioned from a high-resistance state to a low-resistance state; and when voltage of a data-reset voltage value that is of an opposite sign to that of the data-set voltage value is applied, the state is transitioned from a low-resistance state to a high-resistance state.Type: GrantFiled: October 19, 2018Date of Patent: March 15, 2022Assignees: RYUKOKU UNIVERSITY, ROHM CO., LTD.Inventors: Mutsumi Kimura, Sumio Sugisaki, Yoshinori Miyamae

Publication number: 20150048281Abstract: An oxide film according to this invention is a film of an oxide (possibly including inevitable impurities) containing silver (Ag) and nickel (Ni). This oxide film is an aggregate of microcrystals, an amorphous form including microcrystals, or an amorphous form and has p-type conductivity, which exhibits no clear diffraction peak with the XRD analysis, as seen in a chart in FIG. 3 indicating X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis results of a first oxide film and a second oxide film. This oxide film achieves a broader bandgap than that of a conventional oxide film as well as high p-type conductivity. This oxide film is an aggregate of microcrystals, an amorphous form containing microcrystals, or an amorphous form as described above, and is thus easily formed on a large substrate and is suitable also for industrial production.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 1, 2013Publication date: February 19, 2015Applicant: Ryukoku UniversityInventors: Seiji Yamazoe, Takahiro Wada

Publication number: 20120301673Abstract: One oxide film of the present invention is a film of an oxide (which can contain incidental impurities) containing one transition element selected from the group consisting of niobium (Nb) and tantalum (Ta) and copper (Cu). The oxide film is an aggregate of microcrystals, an amorphous form including microcrystals or an amorphous form, which shows no clear diffraction peak in an XRD analysis and has p-type conductivity as shown in the chart of FIG. 5 showing the results of XRD (X-ray diffraction) analyses of a first oxide film and a second oxide film. According to this oxide film, p-type conductivity higher than that of a conventional oxide film is obtained. This oxide film is an aggregate of microcrystals, an amorphous form containing microcrystals or an amorphous form, is consequently easily formed on a large substrate, and is therefore suitable also for industrial production.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 28, 2010Publication date: November 29, 2012Applicant: Ryukoku UniversityInventors: Seiji Yamazoe, Takahiro Wada
