High current glass switches

Memory and threshold switching has been observed in two terminal devices made from a mixed transition metal oxide glass. Cyclic switching of the memory devices has shown a reproducible OFF state resistance ∼1 MΩ and an ON state resistance consistently less than 1Ω. These devices are capable of passi...

Description
Summary:Memory and threshold switching has been observed in two terminal devices made from a mixed transition metal oxide glass. Cyclic switching of the memory devices has shown a reproducible OFF state resistance ∼1 MΩ and an ON state resistance consistently less than 1Ω. These devices are capable of passing a direct current of ∼1A when in the ON state without either incurring physical damage or reverting to the OFF state.
