Cross point memory array using multiple thin films

摘要

Cross point memory array using multiple thin films. The invention is a cross point memory array that uses conductive array lines and multiple thin films as a memory plug. The thin films of the memory plug include a memory element and a non-ohmic device. The memory element switches between resistive states upon application of voltage pulses and the non-ohmic device imparts a relatively high resistance to the memory plug upon application of low magnitude voltages.
