We chemically synthesized TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) and Sb2Te3 hexagonal platelets (HPs) as resistively switching nanostructures and electrically characterized these structures in situ in a SEM by means of a nanomanipulator setup. As a model material for phase change switching, we synthesized single crystalline Sb2Te3 HPs via a solvothermal reaction route. We identified four characteristic reaction intermediates and monitored their evolution by means of nanodiffraction in a STEM. The single HPs were electrically addressed and we monitored phase change switching. As model valence change material we synthesized spherical TiO2 NPs which were subsequently calcined or vacuum-annealed, respectively. For vacuum-annealed NPs we report I-V curves exhibiting forming-free bipolar as well as complementary resistive switching, whereas as synthesized or calcined NPs showed no I-V hysteresis. The properties of the individual NPs were compared with TiOx thin films grown by atomic layer deposition, from which comparable results were obtained.
