Two-Dimensional (C6H5C2H4NH3)2PbI4 Perovskite Single Crystal Resistive Switching Memory Devices

Organic-inorganic halide perovskite has a wide range of applications in the photoelectric field due to its excellent properties, such as high charge carrier mobility, long carrier lifetime, and high light absorption efficiency. The application of perovskite in memristor devices has been developed recently. In this work, (PEA)
