In this paper, we demonstrate a device using a Ni/SiN/BN/p+-Si structure with improved performance in terms of a good ON/OFF ratio, excellent stability, and low power consumption when compared with single-layer Ni/SiN/p+-Si and Ni/BN/p+-Si devices. Its switching mechanism can be explained by trappin...
