摘要

The non-Markov process exists widely in thermodymanic process,while it usually requires the packing of many transistors and memories with great system complexity in a traditional device structure to minic such functions.Two-dimensional(2D)material-based resistive random access memory(RRAM)devices have the potential for next-generation computing systems with much-reduced complexity.Here,we achieve a non-Markov chain in an individual RRAM device based on 2D mineral material mica with a ver-tical metal/mica/metal structure.We find that the potassium ions(K+)in 2D mica gradually move in the direction of the applied electric field,making the initially insulating mica conductive.The accumulation of K+is changed by an electric field,and the 2D-mica RRAM has both single and double memory windows,a high on/off ratio,decent stability,and repeatability.This is the first time a non-Markov chain process has been established in a single RRAM,in which the movement of K+is dependent on the stimulated volt-age as well as their past states.This work not only uncovers an intrinsic inner ionic conductivity of 2D mica,but also opens the door for the production of such RRAM devices with numerous functions and applications.
