A new physical analysis of the filament formation in a Ag conducting-bridge random-access memory (CBRAM) device in consideration of the existence of inter-atomic attractions caused by metal bonding is suggested. The movement of Ag atoms inside the switching layer is characterized hydrodynamically using the Young–Laplace equation during set and reset operations. Both meridional and azimuthal curvatures of the Ag filament protruding from the Ag electrode are accurately calculated to track down the exact shape of the Ag filament with change in the applied voltage. The second-order partial differential equation for the Ag filament geometry is derived from the equation of equilibrium between the electrostatic pressure and the Laplace one. The solution to the equation is numerically obtained, and furthermore, the abrupt set operation in the forming process, bipolar resistive-switching, and the threshold switching operation in the reset operations are successfully simulated in accordance with the numerical solutions. Also, it is demonstrated that the currents extracted from the suggested model show good agreement with the I–V characteristics measured from the fabricated Ag CBRAM device.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
