Resumo:In this work, resistive switching in pulsed laser deposited ferroelectric lead-free 0.5Ba(Zr0.2Ti0.8)O3–0.5(Ba0.7Ca0.3)TiO3 (0.5BZT–0.5BCT) thin films was investigated. This study reveals that films grown at 5.5 J cm−2 have shown optimal ferroelectric and resistive switching response, which are attributed to high tetragonality, large grain size and less defect concentration. Au/0.5BZT–0.5BCT/Pt capacitors show the electroforming free resistive switching that is explained based on the polarization modulation of the Schottky-like barrier at the 0.5BZT–0.5BCT/Au interface. The polarization induced resistive switching is evidenced by its disappearance as the temperature increases to the Curie temperature. The capacitor based on film grown at 5.5 J cm−2 shows resistive switching characterized by high switching ratio of 106 at a low set/reset voltage ≈1V, and by a stable memory window, which are highly required for memory applications.
