Introduction of defects in hexagonal boron nitride for vacancy-based 2D memristors

s at 120 °C. The response times of the SET and RESET process are less than 80 ns and 240 ns, respectively. The current mapping by conductive atomic force microscopy demonstrates the electric-field-induced current tunneling from defective sites of the C-h-BN flake, revealing the defect-based RS in the C-h-BN memristor. Moreover, C-h-BN with excellent flexibility can be applied to wearable devices, maintaining stable RS performance in a variety of bending environments and after multiple bending cycles. The vacancy-based 2D memristor provides a new strategy for developing ultra-scaled memory units with high controllability.
