Oligosaccharide Carbohydrate Dielectrics toward High-Performance Non-volatile Transistor Memory Devices

Abstract

Oligosaccharides are one of the most promising biomaterials because they are abundant, renewable, diversified, and biosourced. The use of oligo- or polysaccharides for high-performance non-volatile organic field-effect-transistor memory is demonstrated herein. The charge-storage mechanism is attributed to charged hydroxyl groups that induce stronger hydrogen bonding, thus leading to the stabilization of trapped charges. This study reveals a promising future for green memory devices.
