abstract = {The distribution of SET switching time of bipolar switching
tantalum oxide thin films is studied using pulse measurement
techniques. SET switching times are measured by repeating
SET and RESET operations in a single cell. It is found that
the distribution measured with a high RESET voltage can be
well described by a steep Weibull distribution with a shape
parameter >1, but lowering the RESET voltage results in a
broad distribution at high cumulative frequencies.
Statistical analysis shows that this broadening of the
distribution can be attributed to the variation of initial
conditions for SET, whereas a steep Weibull distribution
points to an aging process leading to SET under a voltage
stress. It is also shown that although the power of the
leakage current before SET determines the fastest limit of
the SET switching speed, those SET in the broadened
distributions are delayed due to gradual current increase
prior to the SET. The waiting time for the start of the
gradual current increase has a correlation with the power of
the leakage current, showing that Joule heating effect is
still a significant factor in the SET mechanism even if the
SET time distribution is broadened due to the variation of
initial states programmed by low RESET voltages.},
