Transparent multi-level resistive switching phenomena observed in ITO/RGO/ITO memory cells by the sol-gel dip-coating method.

ABSTRACT: A reduced graphene oxide (RGO)-based transparent electronic memory cell with multi-level resistive switching (RS) was successfully realized by a dip-coating method. Using ITO/RGO/ITO structures, the memory device exhibited a transmittance above 80% (including the substrate) in the visible region and multi-level RS behavior in the 00, 01, 10, and 11 states by varying the pulse height from 2 V to 7 V. In the reliability test, the device exhibited a good endurance of over 10(5) cycles and a long data retention of over 10(5) s at 85°C in each state. We believe that the RGO-based transparent memory presented in this work could be a milestone for future transparent electronic devices.
