Embodiment 1

[0030] see figure 1 , in this embodiment, the substrate is a glass substrate 1, the material of the lower electrode 2 is FTO (fluorine tin oxide), and the material of the resistive layer film 3 is ZrO 2 , the material of the upper electrode 4 is ITO (indium tin oxide). The basic process steps are as follows:

[0031] 1) Clean the substrate: Use an ultrasonic cleaning machine to clean the glass substrate on which FTO has grown (purchased from Yingkou Opivet New Energy Technology Co., Ltd.). Immerse the glass in acetone, heat the water bath to 50°C, and sonicate for 5 minutes; then immerse the glass in absolute ethanol, heat the water bath to 50°C, and sonicate for 5 minutes.

[0032] 2) Preparation of resistive layer thin film: using sol-gel technology, selecting zirconium n-butoxide (Zr(O 4 h 9 ) 4 ) as a precursor material, acetylacetone (C 5 h 8 o 2 ) as a stabilizer. First, 3.5 mL of zirconium n-butoxide (80 wt% dissolved in n-butanol) was used as a precursor mater...

[0036] 1) Cleaning the substrate: Use an ultrasonic cleaner to clean the glass substrate on which FTO has been grown. Immerse the glass in acetone, heat the water bath to 50°C, and sonicate for 7 minutes; then immerse the glass in absolute ethanol, heat the water bath to 50°C, and sonicate for 7 minutes.

[0037] 2) Preparation of resistive layer film: first, 4.0mL zirconium n-butoxide (80wt% dissolved in n-butanol) was used as a precursor material, mixed with 10mL absolute ethanol at room temperature, and stirred. Two minutes later, 2 mL of acetylacetone (C 5 h 8 o 2), the solution was milky white. Add 2.5 mL of acetic acid dropwise and continue to stir, the solution becomes clear and slightly pale yellow. Maintain a rotation speed of 3000 rpm for 60 seconds, and then deposit a thin film on the substrate by spin coating. After the film is fabricated, it is baked on a hot plate at 160° C. for 5 minutes to remove the organic components, and the production of the resistive ...

Abstract

The invention provides an oxide-based transparent resistive random access memory (RRAM), which has a three-layer structure consisting of an upper electrode, a resistive layer film and a lower electrode, wherein the upper electrode is made of a transparent conducting material selected from one of ITO (Indium Tin Oxide), FTO (Fluorine-doped Tin Oxide) and ZTO (Zinc-doped Tin Oxide); the resistive layer film is made from ZrO2; the lower electrode is made of a transparent conducting material selected from one of ITO, FTO and ZTO. The invention further provides a method for preparing the RRAM. A sol-gel method is adopted, so that preparation of a low-cost RRAM is realized, and equipment and raw material investments are small; the prepared RRAM device has high consistence, and preparation of a large-area RRAM device can be realized.
