Abstract

Using as an example metal-insulator-semiconductor structures based on GaAs with stabilized (by yttrium oxide) zirconium dioxide, which show the effect of resistive-switching random-access memory, the possibility is considered of controlling phenomena associated with the forming process in the insulator and on the insulator-semiconductor interface, as well as in the semiconductor, by measuring the response of the semiconductor.
