Current RRAM-technologies are physically limited to a defined unambiguously distinguishable number of stable states and a maximum resistive value and are compatible with present complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS)-technologies. In this work, we improved the accuracy of current ANN models by using increased weight resolutions of memristive devices, combining two or more in-series RRAM cells, integrated in the back end of line (BEOL) of the CMOS process. Based on system level simulations, 1T2R devices were fabricated in IHP's 130nm SiGe:BiCMOS technology node, demonstrating an increased number of states. We achieved an increase in weight resolution from 3 bit in ITIR cells to 6.5 bit in our 1T2R cell. The experimental data of 1T2R devices gives indications for the performance and energy-efficiency improvement in ITNR arrays for ANN applications.}, language = {en} } @misc{KalraAlvaradoChavarinNitschetal., author = {Kalra, Amanpreet and Alvarado Chavarin, Carlos and Nitsch, Paul-Gregor and Tschammer, Rudi and Flege, Jan Ingo and Ratzke, Markus and Zoellner, Marvin Hartwig and Schubert, Markus Andreas and Wenger, Christian and Fischer, Inga Anita}, title = {Deposition of CeOₓ/SnOₓ-based thin films via RF magnetron sputtering for resistive gas sensing applications}, series = {Physica B, Condensed matter}, volume = {723}, journal = {Physica B, Condensed matter}, publisher = {Elsevier BV}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {0921-4526}, doi = {10.1016/j.physb.2025.418098}, pages = {1 -- 7}, abstract = {Cerium oxide-tin oxide (CeOx/SnOx) thin films with varying Sn content were deposited using RF magnetron sputtering and investigated for hydrogen sensing applications. Structural, compositional, and morphological properties were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), atomic force microscopy (AFM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). Gas sensing measurements showed effective hydrogen detection at room temperature, with the sensitivity strongly influenced by Sn content and oxygen vacancy concentration. Higher Sn concentration enhanced the sensing response, which was correlated with microstructural features obtained from AFM and EDX, as well as with the presence of Ce3+ and Ce4+ oxidation states identified by XPS. This study highlights the potential of CeOx/SnOx thin films for possible back-end-of-line integration and provides proof-of-principle for room-temperature hydrogen sensing.}, language = {en} } @misc{MahadevaiahPerezLiskeretal., author = {Mahadevaiah, Mamathamba Kalishettyhalli and P{\´e}rez, Eduardo and Lisker, Marco and Schubert, Markus Andreas and Perez-Bosch Quesada, Emilio and Wenger, Christian and Mai, Andreas}, title = {Modulating the Filamentary-Based Resistive Switching Properties of HfO2 Memristive Devices by Adding Al2O3 Layers}, series = {Electronics : open access journal}, volume = {11}, journal = {Electronics : open access journal}, number = {10}, issn = {2079-9292}, doi = {10.3390/electronics11101540}, pages = {14}, abstract = {The resistive switching properties of HfO2 based 1T-1R memristive devices are electrically modified by adding ultra-thin layers of Al2O3 into the memristive device.
