abstract = {The ultimate sensitivity of any solid state device is
limited by fluctuations. Fluctuations are manifestations of
the thermal motion of matter and the discreteness of its
structure which are also inherent ingredients during the
resistive switching process of resistance random access
memory (RRAM) devices. In quest for the role of fluctuations
in different memory states and to develop resistive
switching based nonvolatile memory devices, here we present
our study on random telegraph noise (RTN) resistance
fluctuations in Cu doped Ge0.3Se0.7 based RRAM cells. The
influence of temperature and electric field on the RTN
fluctuations is studied on different resistance states of
the memory cells to reveal the dynamics of the underlying
fluctuators. Our analysis indicates that the observed
fluctuations could arise from thermally activated
transpositions of Cu ions inside ionic or redox "double-site
traps" triggering fluctuations in the current transport
through a filamentary conducting path. Giant RTN
fluctuations characterized by relative resistance variations
of up to $50\%$ in almost macroscopic samples clearly point
to the existence of weak links with small effective
cross-sectional areas along the conducting paths. Such large
resistance fluctuations can be an important issue for the
industrial applications of RRAM devices because they might
lead to huge bit-error rates during reading cycles.},
