Abstract:
With the advent of artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things, demand has grown for flexible, low‐power, high‐density nonvolatile memory capable of handling vast amounts of information. Ultrathin‐layered 2D semiconductor materials such as molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) have considerable potential for flexible electronic device applications because of their unique physical properties. However, development of flexible MoS 2 ‐based flash memory is challenging, as there is a lack of flexible dielectric materials with sufficient insulating properties for use in flash memory devices with dielectric bilayers. Here, large‐scale, low‐power nonvolatile memory is realized based on a chemical vapor deposition (CVD)‐grown millimeter‐scale few‐layer MoS 2 semiconductor channel and polymer dielectrics prepared via an initiated CVD (iCVD) process. Using the outstanding insulating properties and solvent‐free nature of iCVD, fabricated memory devices with a tunable memory window, a high on/off ratio (≈10 6 ), low operating voltages (≈13 V), stable retention times exceeding 10 5 s with a possible extrapolated duration of years, and cycling endurance exceeding 1500 cycles are demonstrated. Owing to these characteristics, these devices distinctly outperform previously reported MoS 2 ‐based memory devices. Leveraging the inherent mechanical flexibility of both ultrathin polymer dielectrics and MoS 2 , this work is a step toward realization of large‐scale, low‐power, flexible MoS 2 ‐based flash memory.
