Abstract: Conductive-bridging memory can store information as different resistance states even when not powered. In order to check reliability challenges for nonvolatile-memory applications, the data retention has to be tested carefully. This letter describes a new test scheme using electrical bias for acceleration and enables the fast recording of such detailed information. Experimental data for memory devices based on Ag:GeS2 as the active-matrix material are presented. Excellent stability and reproducibility of the resistance states for more than 300 cycles are demonstrated in the temperature range from 25 degrees C to 85 degrees C. Based on the calculated activation energy, ten years of data retention is extrapolated.
