A CAFM and device level study of MIS structures with graphene as interfacial layer for ReRAM applications

Capacitive Metal-Insulator-Semiconductor structures with graphene as interfacial layer between the HfO dielectric and the top electrode have been fabricated and investigated at device level and at the nanoscale with Conductive Atomic Force Microscope. In particular, their electrical properties and v...
