Patent abstract
A method is provided for forming a Pr0.3Ca0.7MnO3 (PCMO) thin film with crystalline structure-related memory resistance properties. The method comprises: forming a PCMO thin film with a first crystalline structure; and, changing the resistance state of the PCMO film using pulse polarities responsive to the first crystalline structure. In one aspect the first crystalline structure is either amorphous or a weak-crystalline. Then, the resistance state of the PCMO film is changed in response to unipolar pulses. In another aspect, the PCMO thin film has either a polycrystalline structure. Then, the resistance state of the PCMO film changes in response to bipolar pulses.
