Abstract Organic devices promise to revolutionize the extent of, and access to, electronics by providing extremely inexpensive, lightweight, and capable ubiquitous components that are printed onto plastic, glass, or metal foils. One key component of an electronic circuit that has thus far received surprisingly little attention is an organic electronic memory. Here we report architecture for a Nonvolatile and reproducible unipolar resistive switching memory based on organic and hybrid organic/inorganic materials. The promised memories are desirable for ultralow-cost permanent storage of digital images, eliminating the need for slow, bulky, and expensive mechanical drives used in conventional magnetic and optical memories. The operation of these types of devices requires a change of device resistance when subjected to an electrical bias. |
