Multilevel Nonvolatile Flexible Organic Field-Effect Transistor Memories Employing Polyimide Electrets with Different Charge-Transfer Effects

摘要

The electrical memory characteristics of the n-channel organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) employing diverse polyimide (PI) electrets are reported. The synthesized PIs comprise identical electron donor and three different building blocks with gradually increasing electronaccepting ability. The distinct charge-transfer capabilities of these PIs result in varied type of memory behaviors from the write-one-read-many (WORM) to flash type. Finally, a prominent flexible WORM-type transistor memory is demonstrated and shows not only promising write-many-read-many (WMRM) multilevel data storage but also excellent mechanical and retention stability.
