Abstract

In this review, a comprehensive survey of different oxide-based resistive random-access memories (RRAMs) for neuromorphic computing is provided. We begin with the history of RRAM development, physical mechanism of conduction, fundamental of neuromorphic computing, followed by a review of a variety of RRAM oxide materials (PCMO, HfOx, TaOx, TiOx, NiOx, etc.) with a focus on their application for neuromorphic computing. Our goal is to give a broad review of oxide-based RRAM materials that can be adapted to neuromorphic computing and to help further ongoing research in the field.
