Sketch of the configuration of a light‐controlled resistive switching memory. Light enters through the Al 2 O 3 uncovered surface and reaches the optically active p‐Si substrate, where carriers are photogenerated and subsequently injected in the Al 2 O 3 layer when a suitable voltage pulse is applied. The resistance of the Al 2 O 3 can be switched between different non‐volatile states, depending on the applied voltage pulse and on the illumination conditions.
