Abstract
A memory structure comprises a ReRAM module embedded in a substrate. An insulative layer is formed on the substrate. A first electrode is located on the insulative layer. The first electrode is proximately connected to a first end of the ReRAM module and comprises a first surface area. A second electrode is located on the insulative layer. The second electrode is proximately connected to a second end of the ReRAM module. The second electrode comprises a second surface area, a plasma-interacting component, and a resistive component. The resistive component is located between the plasma-interacting component and the ReRAM module. A ratio of the first surface area to the second surface area creates a voltage between the first electrode and second electrode when the first surface area and second surfaces area are exposed to an application of plasma. The voltage forms a conductive filament in the ReRAM module.
