1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

This paper presents the results of experimental studies of the influence of high-frequency magnetron sputtering power on the structural and electrophysical properties of nanocrystalline ZnO films. It is shown that at a magnetron sputtering power of 75 W in an argon atmosphere at room temperature, ZnO films have a relatively smooth surface and a uniform nanocrystalline structure. Based on the results obtained, the formation and study of resistive switching of transparent ITO/ZnO/ITO memristor structures as well as a crossbar array based on them were performed. It is demonstrated that memristor structures based on ZnO films obtained at a magnetron sputtering power of 75 W exhibit stable resistive switching for 1000 cycles between high resistance states (HRS = 537.4 ± 26.7 Ω) and low resistance states (LRS = 291.4 ± 38.5 Ω), while the resistance ratio in HRS/LRS is ~1.8. On the basis of the experimental findings, we carried out mathematical modeling of the resistive switching of this structure, and it demonstrated that the regions with an increase in the electric field strength along the edge of the upper electrode become the main sources of oxygen vacancy generation in ZnO film. A crossbar array of 16 transparent ITO/ZnO/ITO memristor structures was also fabricated, demonstrating 20,000 resistive switching cycles between LRS = 13.8 ± 1.4 kΩ and HRS = 34.8 ± 2.6 kΩ for all devices, with a resistance ratio of HRS/LRS of ~2.5. The obtained results can be used in the development of technological processes for the manufacturing of transparent memristor crossbars for neuromorphic structures of machine vision, robotics, and artificial intelligence systems.
