RESUMO
Memristors are considered the best candidates for nonvolatile memory and advanced computing technologies, and polymer and two-dimensional (2D) materials have been developed as functional layer materials in memristors with high-performance resistive switching characteristics. In this work, a polymer memristor with a graphene (Gr)-doped poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) composite acting as the functional layer was prepared. The memristor device exhibited superior performance with good retention and a comparatively large ON/OFF ratio at room temperature. Additionally, excellent logic operations were achieved. These satisfactory properties can be attributed to trap-induced carrier trapping and detrapping. In addition, the device exhibited stable bipolar resistive switching behavior over a moderate temperature range. This work provides insight into the transmission mechanism of polymer-based memristors and the reasons why they become unstable at high temperatures, demonstrating the potential applications of PVA-Gr-based polymer memristors as logic circuit units in integrated chips and artificial intelligence.
