Abstract

We present the memory performance of devices with bistable electrical behavior based on MEH-PPV (Poly (1-methoxy-4-(2-ethylhexyloxy)-p-phenylenevinylene)) containing metal (Zn or Fe-Ni) particles. Another memory device based on aluminum phthalocyanine chloride (PcAlCl) added to the composite material reveals the photoinduced switching, in addition to the electrical one. Possible mechanisms for resistive switching are discussed.
