Abstract: | The electrical switching behaviour of As45Te55-xInx (5≤x≤15) and As50Te50-xInx (2.5≤x≤11.5) has been studied over a wide range of compositions. These glasses are found to exhibit threshold switching.
The composition dependence of switching voltage (Vt) has been found to exhibit a change in slope and a local minimum at compositions x=10 and 12.5 for As45Te55-xInx and x=7.5 and 10.8 for As50Te50-xInx, respectively. The slope change in Vt verses x and the local minimum have been identified using two network topological effects, namely the rigidity percolation
threshold and the chemical threshold.
