Redox engineering at the Sc/SiOx interface spontaneously establishes a stable oxygen‐vacancy‐rich region that preconditions the defect landscape in SiOx memristors. This facilitates controlled vacancy percolation, eliminates electroforming, and enables forming‐free bipolar resistive switching with improved switching uniformity, long endurance, and ...
