Abstract
Nonvolatile resistive memory devices are disclosed. In some embodiments, the memory devices comprise multilayer structures including electrodes, one or more resistive storage layers, and separation layers. The separation layers insulate the resistive storage layers to prevent charge leakage from the storage layers and allow for the use of thin resistive storage layers. In some embodiments, the nonvolatile resistive memory device includes a metallic multilayer comprising two metallic layers about an interlayer. A dopant at an interface of the interlayer and metallic layers can provide a switchable electric field within the multilayer.
