Abstract

To adapt a thin and fragile active layer for continued memristor scaling requires alternative damage-free metal-integration strategies. By adopting a van der Waals (vdW) metal-integration approach, this work constructs memristors with vdW contacts between metal and thin native oxide on 2D material SnSe. The “low-energy” vdW-integration process preserves the delicate SnOx and enables reliable memristors with low operation voltage, excellent endurance, and retention. This strategy defines a unique vdW-integration solution for fragile memristive materials.
