Abstract
Tapered resistive memory devices with interface dipoles are provided. In one aspect, a ReRAM device includes: a bottom electrode; a core dielectric that is thermally conductive disposed on the bottom electrode; an oxide resistive memory cell disposed along outer sidewalls of the core dielectric, wherein the oxide resistive memory cell has inner edges adjacent to the core dielectric, and outer edges that are tapered; an outer coating disposed adjacent to the outer edges of the oxide resistive memory cell; and a top electrode disposed on the core dielectric, the oxide resistive memory cell, and the outer coating. A method of forming a ReRAM device as well as a method of operating a ReRAM device are also provided.
