Abstract
Layer structures of successive silver and silicon monoxide layer pairs were made using evaporating techniques. Small angle X-ray diffraction and multiple reflection interferometric techniques have been used to establish the identity periods of the samples. these samples were found to have switching characteristics. Slow and fast switching was observed and the application of voltage would induce switching into higher as well as into lower resistance states. Sequential switching through multiple resistance states has also been observed.
