Enhancing Semiconductor Memristors with Halide Perovskites

Traditional semiconductor materials face challenges in balancing performance, stability, and affordability. Halide perovskites offer a promising alternative due to their tunable electronic properties and low-cost fabrication. This research investigates how three-dimensional perovskite thin films can enhance device performance as switchable memristor devices. Mobile ions are controlled through the application of voltage to change the resistivity of the perovskite. The project focuses on testing different top electrode configurations, including gold, silver, and carbon-based electrodes, to study their effects on the electrical switching behavior and stability for 3D perovskite-based memristors.
