abstract = {Platinum serves as a model electrode in solid-state
electrochemistry and as the inert electrode in redox-based
resistive random-access memory (ReRAM) technology.
Experimental work has proposed that oxygen may diffuse
faster along platinum's extended defects, but quantitative,
unambiguous transport data do not exist. In this study, the
diffusion of oxygen atoms in crystalline platinum and along
its extended defects is studied as a function of temperature
by means of molecular dynamics (MD) simulations with the
ReaxFF interatomic potentials. The MD simulations indicate
that platinum vacancies trap oxygen atoms, inhibiting their
diffusion through the platinum lattice and leading to a high
activation enthalpy of diffusion of around 3 eV. This
picture of trapping is supported by static
density-functional-theory calculations. MD simulations of
selected dislocations and selected grain boundaries indicate
that oxygen diffusion is much faster along these extended
defects than through the Pt lattice at temperatures below
1400 K, exhibiting a much lower activation enthalpy of
≈0.7 eV for all extended defects examined. Producing
specific electrode microstructures with controlled densities
and types of extended defects thus offers a new avenue to
improve the performance of ReRAM devices and to prevent
device failure.},
