  • Patent number: 7482624
    Abstract: In an organic electronic circuit, particularly a memory circuit with an organic ferroelectric or electret material the active material comprises fluorine atoms and consists of various organic materials. The active material is located between a first electrode and a second electrode. A cell with a capacitor-like structure is defined in the active material and can be accessed for an addressing operation via the first and the second electrode. At least one of these electrodes comprises a layer of chemically modified gold. In a passive matrix-addressable electronic device, particularly a ferroelectric or electret memory device, circuits of this kind with the active material as a ferroelectric or electret memory material form the elements of a matrix-addressable array and define the memory cells provided between first and second set of addressing electrodes. At least the electrodes of at least one of the sets then comprise at least a layer of gold.

  • Patent number: 7265379
    Abstract: An organic electronic device consists of one or more electro-active organic or polymer materials sandwiched between electrodes. Critical in such devices is the interface between the electrode and the polymer, where degradation or chemical reaction products may develop that are deleterious to the proper functioning of the device. This is solved by introducing a functional interlayer composed of one or more materials consisting of a molecular backbone bearing phosphonate or phosphate functions, either directly attached or through side chains, said functional layer being disposed between at least one of the respective electrodes and said one or more electro-active materials in the device.

  • Patent number: 7266008
    Abstract: In a method for enhancing the data storage capability of ferroelectric or electret memory cell which has been applied to storage of data and attained an imprint condition, suitable voltage pulses are used for evoking a temporary relaxation of the imprint condition into a volatile polarization state that can be discriminated from the imprinted polarization state in a non-destructive readout operation. Sequences of one or more voltage pulses are used to evoke readout signals respectively indicative of a non-volatile and a volatile polarization state of the memory cell, but without altering said polarization states.
