Abstract
Covalent organic polymer(COP)thin film-based memristors have generated intensive research interest,but the studies are still in their infancy.Herein,by controlling the content of hydroxyl groups in the aldehyde monomer,Py-COP thin films with different electronic push-pull effects were fabricated bearing distinct memory performances,where the films were prepared by the solid-liquid interface method on the ITO substrates and further fabricated as memory devices with ITO/Py-COPs/Ag architectures.The Py-COP-1-based memory device only exhibited binary memory behavior with an ON/OFF ratio of 1∶101.87.In contrast,the device based on Py-COP-2 demonstrated ternary memory behavior with an ON/OFF ratio of 1∶100.6∶103.1 and a ternary yield of 55％.The ternary memory mechanism of the ITO/Py-COP-2/Ag memory device is most likely due to the combination of the trapping of charge carriers and conductive filaments.Interestingly,the Py-COPs-based devices can successfully emulate the synaptic potentiation/depression behavior,clarifying the programmability of these devices in neuromorphic systems.These results suggest that the electronic properties of COPs can be precisely tuned at the molecular level,which provides a promising route for designing multi-level memory devices.
