Popis: Organometallic and all-inorganic halide perovskites (HPs) have recently emerged as promising candidate materials for resistive switching (RS) nonvolatile memory due to their current-voltage hysteresis caused by fast ion migration. Lead-free and all-inorganic HPs have been researched for non-toxic and environmentally friendly RS memory devices. However, only HP-based devices with electrochemically active top electrode (TE) exhibit ultra-low operating voltages and high on/off ratio RS properties. The active TE easily reacts to halide ions in HP films, and the devices have a low device durability. Herein, RS memory devices based on an air-stable lead-free all-inorganic dual-phase HP (AgBi2 I7 -Cs3 Bi2 I9 ) are successfully fabricated with inert metal electrodes. The devices with Au TE show filamentary RS behavior by conducting-bridge involving Ag cations in HPs with ultra-low operating voltages ( 107 ), multilevel data storage, and long retention times (>5 × 104 s). The use of a closed-loop pulse switching method improves reversible RS properties up to 103 cycles with high on/off ratio above 106 . With an extremely small bending radius of 1 mm, the devices are operable with reasonable RS characteristics. This work provides a promising material strategy for lead-free all-inorganic HP-based nonvolatile memory devices for practical applications.
