Abstract
An electrical memristive device has a layer structure. The layer structure comprises two electrodes and a bilayer material arrangement that connects the two electrodes. The bilayer material arrangement may, for example, be sandwiched by the two electrodes, in direct contact therewith. The bilayer material arrangement includes an HfOlayer, where 1.3±0.1≤y<1.9±0.1, as well as a WOlayer in direct contact with the HfOlayer, where 2.5±0.1≤x<2.9±0.1. The bilayer arrangement involves sub-stoichiometric layers of HfOand WO, where the WOlayer may advantageously have a polycrystalline structure in the monoclinic phase, while the HfOlayer is preferably amorphous.
