Flexible organic memory devices with multilayer graphene electrodes.

We fabricated 8 × 8 cross-bar array-type flexible organic resistive memory devices with transparent multilayer graphene (MLG) electrodes on a poly(ethylene terephthalate) substrate. The active layer of the memory devices is a composite of polyimide and 6-phenyl-C61 butyric acid methyl ester. The sheet resistance of the MLG film on memory device was found to be ∼270 Ω/◻, and the transmittance of separated MLG film from memory device was ∼92%. The memory devices showed typical write-once-read-many (WORM) characteristics and an ON/OFF ratio of over ∼10(6). The memory devices also exhibited outstanding cell-to-cell uniformity with flexibility. There was no substantial variation observed in the current levels of the WORM memory devices upon bending and bending cycling up to 10 000 times. A retention time of over 10(4) s was observed without fluctuation under bending.
