Summary: | A method of controlling the forming voltage of a dielectric film in a resistive random access memory (ReRAM) device. The method includes depositing a dielectric film contains intrinsic defects on a substrate, forming a plasma-excited treatment gas containing H2 gas, and exposing the dielectric film to the plasma-excited treatment gas to create additional defects in the dielectric film without substantially changing a physical thickness of the dielectric film, where the additional defects lower the forming voltage needed for generating an electrically conducting filament across the dielectric film. The dielectric film can include a metal oxide film and the plasma-excited treatment gas may be formed using a microwave plasma source. |
