Abstrakt: Herein, we report the first demonstration of a single-step, in situ growth of NiS 2 nanostructures from a single-source precursor onto a flexible substrate as a versatile platform for an effective nonvolatile memristor. The low temperature, solution-processed deposition of NiS 2 thin films exhibits a wide band gap range, spherical-flower-like morphology with high surface area and porosity, and negligible surface roughness. Moreover, the fabricated Au/NiS 2 /ITO/PET memristor device reveals reproducible bipolar resistive switching (RS) at low operational voltages under both flat and bending conditions. The flexible device shows stable RS behavior for multiple cycles with a good memory window (∼10 2 ) and data retention of up to 10 4 s. The switching of a device between a high-resistance state and a low-resistance state is attributed to the filamentary conduction based on sulfur ion migration and sulfur vacancies and plays a key role in the outstanding memristive performance of the device. Consequently, this work provides a simple, scalable, solution-processed route to fabricate a flexible device with potential applications in next-generation neuromorphic computing and wearable electronics.
