Abstract
A device structure includes a parallel connection of capacitor-switch assemblies located over a substrate. The capacitor-switch assemblies include a first capacitor-switch assembly that includes a first series connection of a first capacitor and a first non-Ohmic switching device, which has a first threshold voltage and includes a first primary switch electrode, a first secondary switch electrode, and a first non-Ohmic switching material portion. The capacitor switch assemblies further include a second capacitor-switch assembly that includes a second series connection of a second capacitor and a second non-Ohmic switching device, which has a second threshold voltage and includes a second primary switch electrode, a second secondary switch electrode, and a second non-Ohmic switching material portion. The second threshold voltage is different from the first threshold voltage. The non-Ohmic switching devices may be conditionally turned on depending on a magnitude of applied voltage spikes.
