Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: Memristors have emerged as promising next-generation electronic components with significant potential for applications in nonvolatile memory, integrated circuits, and neuromorphic computing. Recent advancements in 2D materials have further enhanced memristor performance, offering high on/off ratios, low set/reset voltages, strong data retention, excellent durability, and fast switching speeds. Despite their versatility, the integration of memristors into display technologies remains relatively unexplored. This study investigates memristors incorporating a transition metal dichalcogenide layer, focusing on their switching mechanisms and potential use as electrodes in organic light-emitting diode (OLED) devices. By harnessing the resistive switching phenomenon, the proposed system enables compact, individually addressable OLED pixels without the need for additional switching components. This innovative approach broadens the application scope of memristors in display technology and offers valuable insights into the development of efficient, compact, and high-performance memristor-based display systems.
