Abstract: An organic bistable device includes a first electrode, a second electrode, and an organic mixture layer, wherein the organic mixture layer is located between the first electrode and the second electrode. While a bias is applied between the first electrode and the second electrode of the bistable device, the doped metal material/particle is used as a mediator for injecting electrons. Therefore, both the writing/erasing cycle times and life time of an organic bistable device are increased. Moreover, the organic bistable device having an organic mixture layer with metal dopants possesses a relatively stable low conductance (off-current) state. Hence, by applying the voltage thereon, the organic bistable device can be well controlled to be turned on or turned off.
