The electrical memory characteristics of the n-channel organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) employing diverse polyimide (PI) electrets are reported. The synthesized PIs comprise identical electron donor and three different building blocks with gradually increasing electron-accepting ability. The distinct charge-transfer capabilities of these PIs result in varied type of memory behaviors from the write-one-read-many (WORM) to flash type. Finally, a prominent flexible WORM-type transistor…
