Resistive switching in organic memory devices for flexible applications

The organic resistance memories show great potentials for future flexible applications. In this paper the main challenges and typical recent progress of the organic resistance memory devices are discussed. A kind of single-component polymer resistance memory device based on polychloro-paraxylylene (parylene-C) is focused, with excellent chemical stability and high CMOS process compatibility as well as further reduction of operation current, which is promising for future information storage in flexible systems.
