Resistance random access memory device

Abstract

Provided is a resistance random access memory device comprising: a first electrode; a second electrode; and a metallic oxide formed between the first electrode and the second electrode. Particularly, provided is a resistance random access memory device wherein the metallic oxide comprises a first crystal grain and a second crystal grain which differ from each other in crystallographic orientation and form a boundary area; wherein a surface is intervened between the first crystal grain and the second crystal grain in the boundary area, the surface having a surface index corresponding to a surface crystallographically consisting only of oxygen among the crystal faces of the metallic oxide; and wherein the boundary area is a surface in which an electrically conductive path is formed when voltage is applied between the first electrode and the second electrode.
