Abstract

In this work, the local current-voltage characteristics of nanocomposite phase boundaries in the form of a poly(vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene) (PVDF-TrFE) (70/30) matrix filled with conductive polyaniline (PANI) particles are studied by conductive atomic force microscopy. At negative external bias voltages, these dependencies are shown to have an interval with a negative differential resistance. This fact is caused by the switching of ferroelectric polarization of individual nanocrystallites PVDF-TrFE located near the phase boundaries in the amorphous matrix volume. The obtained results confirm assumptions about the memristive properties of the investigated nanocomposites.
