Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of memory, and specifically relates to a resistive random access memory and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Memory undoubtedly occupies a very important position in today's information age. With the continuous improvement of semiconductor technology, resistance random access memory (RRAM) is getting more and more attention. RRAM has the technical advantages of simple preparation process, high density, high integration, fast programming speed, reliable and stable performance, low energy consumption and low operating voltage. The most important thing is that RRAM is compatible with CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) process. Therefore, RRAM has become one of the most powerful competitors for next-generation memory. [0003] The core of the resistive random access memory is a metal / medium / metal (MIM) structure, which relies on the resistive effect of the intermediate dielectri...
