Abstract
Electronics with multifunctionalities such as transparency, portability, and flexibility are anticipated for future circuitry development. Flexible memory is one of the indispensable elements in a hybrid electronic integrated circuit as the information storage device. Herein, we demonstrate a transparent, flexible, and transferable hexagonal boron nitride (hBN)-based resistive switching memory with indium tin oxide (ITO) and graphene electrodes on soft polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) substrate. The ITO/hBN/graphene/PDMS memory device not only exhibits excellent performance in terms of optical transmittance (∼85% in the visible wavelength), ON/OFF ratio (∼480), retention time (∼5 × 104 s) but also shows robust flexibility under bending conditions and stable operation on arbitrary substrates. More importantly, direct observation of indium filaments in an ITO/hBN/graphene device is found via ex situ transmission electron microscopy, which provides critical insight on the complex resistive switching mechanisms.
