摘要

In this work, pectin, a by-product has not been recycled sustainably, is introduced as an insulator to fabricate a novel organic resistive switching memory devices with Ag/Pectin/FTO structure for the first time. The device exhibits superior switching endurance accompanied by an OFF/ON resistance ratio (storage density window) of similar to 450. This work reveals for the first time that pectin from fruit peel is a promising material for nonvolatile memory applications.
