Abstract

Organic bistable devices (OBDs) using graphene oxide (GO) flakes sandwiched polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) films were fabricated. These devices exhibited two accessible conducting states, that is, a low-conductivity (OFF) state and a high-conductivity (ON) state. The devices can be switched to ON state under a negative electrical sweep; it can also be reset to the initial OFF state by a reverse (positive) electrical sweep. Detailed I-V measurements have shown that in ITO/PMMA/GO/PMMA/Al sandwiches the resistive switching originates from the formation and rupture of conducting filaments. The ON/OFF ratio of the OBDs was approximately 5 x 10(3), reproducibility of more than 10(5) cycles, and retention time of 10(4) s. These properties show that the device is promising for high-density, low-cost memory application.
