Producción CientíficaThree topologies of TiN/Ti/HfO 2 /W resistive switching memories (RRAM) are proposed in this work: crossbar, isolated and isolated-crossbar configurations. All configurations use the same sequence of technological processes. The different topologies are obtained by customizing the layouts corresponding to the bottom electrode (W), and the silicon oxide layer that is deposited on the bottom electrode. A comparative study of the resistive switching mechanisms in the three configurations has been carried out. DC current-voltage cycles and small signal conductance memory maps of single RRAM show relevant differences among the three topologies. Complex structures containing various devices (series, anti-series, parallel, antiparallel) have also been fabricated. Switching loops and memory maps obtained for these complex structures demonstrate that they are fully operative, validating the technological route to manufacture complete RRAM memory chips.Ministerio de Economía, Industria y Competitividad - Fondo Europeo de Desarrollo Regional (grants TEC2017-84321- C4-1-R and TEC2017-84321-C4-2-R
