Abstract

We have studied the electric properties of Au/ZnO/Al structures that exhibit a reproducible resistance switching under the applied voltage. Rupture and recovery of the conductive filaments at the ZnO/Au interface were suggested as responsible for this switching. Trapped charge electrons in the interface states can change width and height of a Shottky‐like barrier that exists on the Au/ZnO interface. However, the changing of the interface barrier characteristics leads to change of the resistance switching properties, decreasing or increasing their values.
