Abstract

It is shown that the electromigration of oxygen ions caused by ac electric fields is the main origin of a two-valued current-voltage characteristic in contacts of a metallic electrode with a com-plex transition-metal oxide. The effect is proposed to apply for a significant enhancement of func-tionalities of a memristor, a novel basic element in nanoelectronics.
