We report a memristive switching effect in the Pt/CuOx/Si/Pt devices prepared by rf sputtering technique at room temperature. Different from other Cu-based switching systems, the devices show a non-filamentary switching effect. A gradual electroforming marked by resistance increasing and capacitance decreasing is observed in current-voltage and capacitance characteristics. By the Auger electron spectroscopy analysis, a model based on Cu ion and oxygen vacancy drift, and thickness change of the SiOx layer at the CuOx/Si interface was proposed for the memristive switching and gradual electroforming, respectively. The present work would be meaningful for the preparation of forming-free and homogeneous memristive devices.
