Abstract

High density NVRAM. An array of memory cells capable of storing at least a megabit of information, each memory cell including a memory plug that includes a memory element that switches from a first resistance state to a second resistance state upon application of a first write voltage of a first polarity and reversibly switches from the second resistance state to the first resistance state upon application of a second write voltage of polarity opposite to the first polarity.
