Abstract
A resistive switching memory device can include a plurality of resistive memory cells, where each of the resistive memory cells includes: (i) a first diode having an anode coupled to a first word line and a cathode coupled to a common node; (ii) a second diode having an anode coupled to the common node and a cathode coupled to a second word line; and (iii) a resistive storage element having an anode coupled to a bit line and a cathode coupled to the common node, wherein the resistive memory cell is configured to be programmed to a low resistance state by application of a program voltage in a forward bias direction, and to be erased to a high resistance state by application of an erase voltage in a reverse bias direction.
