A 16-Byte Nonvolatile Bistable Polymer Memory Array on Plastic Substrates

We demonstrate a 16-byte addressable organic nonvolatile bistable memory array (ONBM) on the plastic substrate. The memory cell can be switched on and off over 1,000 times and the data can be retained for more than 3 days in the air. Our ONBM are stable during the application of compressive stress down to 5 mm in bending radius. After connecting the ONBM array to the current-sensing circuit, the ONBM array can be correctly addressed and operated, while maintaining low-power consumption.
