Abstract

Electronic apparatus, systems, and methods can include a resistive memory cell having a dielectric structured as an operably variable resistance region between an oxygen source and an oxygen sink. The dielectric, oxygen source, and an oxygen sink can be structured as a field driven unipolar memory element with respect to generation and healing of a filament in the dielectric. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed.
