Reliable and reproducible resistive switching behaviors were observed in graphene oxide (GO) thin films prepared by the vacuum filtration method. The Cu/GO/Pt structure showed an on/off ratio of about 20, a retention time more than 104 s, threshold voltages less 1 V. effect could be understood considering desorption/absorption oxygen-related groups on GO sheets as well diffusion top electrodes. Our experiments indicate that is potentially useful for future nonvolatile memory applications.
Resistive memory effect has been found in carbon nanostructure-based devices by Standley et al. [Nano Lett. 8, 3345 (2008)].

ABSTRACT Organic field‐effect transistors (OFETs), with their potential for low‐cost manufacturing and compatibility flexible substrates, have emerged as an indispensable element in next‐generation electronics. However, the existing OFETs are significantly hindered by lack of reconfigurability multifunctionality application complex electronic systems. To address these limitations, we propose a novel design strategy to develop dual‐gate organic transistor (DG‐OFET), primarily featuring...
Abstract Intrinsically stretchable semiconducting polymers are promising candidates for developing wearable electronics, but remain underdeveloped because the correlation between microstructural evolution during stretching and resultant charge transport is not clearly understood. In this study, we clarify impact of molecular orientation on dynamic performance stretched polymers, controlling orientations via solvent-dependent spin-coating. We found that strain-enhanced electrical feasible by...
