Guided phase transition from TiO2 rutile to anatase during electroforming of memristor-like devices
The effect of X-ray nano-beam irradiation has been investigated, along with a subsequent electric discharge between the metallic electrodes of memristive-like devices fabricated on top of rutile single crystals. X-ray irradiation with a photon flux of about 6 × 1012 photons/second impinging on an area of 74 × 60 nm2, and with irradiation times of the order of tens of seconds per point, has been able to pattern a conducting path between the electrodes, which has guided the electric discharge process. The results from Ti K-edge XANES mapping with submicron spatial resolution show small changes in the configuration of the pre-edge peaks, suggesting the presence of anatase phase in the affected region, which is also confirmed by micro-Raman mapping. This implies the occurrence of very intense Joule heating during the electric discharge (T > 2140 K), followed by a very quick cooling process. This conversion of rutile to anatase represents a novel electrical method for the formation of localized anatase nanoparticles from rutile single crystals, which may be of help for specific applications.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of the European Ceramic Society publishes the results of original research and reviews relating to ceramic materials. Papers of either an experimental or theoretical character will be welcomed on a fully international basis. The emphasis is on novel generic science concerning the relationships between processing, microstructure and properties of polycrystalline ceramics consolidated at high temperature. Papers may relate to any of the conventional categories of ceramic: structural, functional, traditional or composite. The central objective is to sustain a high standard of research quality by means of appropriate reviewing procedures.
