Abstract

In this work, two metallopolymers (P1 and P2) were designed and synthesized through coupling of ferrocene-anchored fluorene derivatives with porphyrin and benzene based diethynyl ligand, respectively. The chemical structure and physical properties of these two metallpolymers were fully characterized, which indicate that these two metallopolymers are thermally stable and semiconducting. Then, sandwich-like organic resistive memory based on P1 and P2 for data storage were explored. The memory device testing results manifest that both P1 and P2 are of the stable electric bistability and show write once read many times memory (WORM) characteristics.
