DOI: 10.1021/acsami.2c04618
Abstract: Metal-oxide-metal (MOM) devices based on niobium oxide exhibit threshold switching (or current-controlled negative differential resistance) due to thermally induced conductivity changes produced by Joule heating. A detailed understanding of the device characteristics therefore relies on… read more here.
