Effect of temperature on the electrical properties of an organic memristive device

Electrical characterization of an organic memristive device shows an unexpected dependence of the conductivity variation with temperature, namely, slowing down of kinetics with increasing temperature. The observed behavior was explained by the hydration of the solid electrolyte layer, which is more significant at lower temperatures. It was possible to stabilize the device properties by protecting it with inert insulating material.
