【摘要】A functional polyimide (PI) film, (hexafluoroisopropylidene)diphthalic anhydride–2-(9H-carbazol-9-yl)ethyl 3,5-diaminobenzoate (6FDA–DADBC), in which DADBC serves as electron donor and 6FDA as electron acceptor, was synthesized in this work. The PI has electrical bistability and the sandwich device ITO‖6FDA–DADBC–PI‖Au made by using this functional PI as the active layer has nonvolatile memory-storage properties. It can be changed between the insulating state (Off state) and the conducting state (On state) by application of potentials of approximately 0.5 V and −2.5 V, respectively, with an On/Off current ratio of approximately 102, which is suitable for use as flash memory. Mechani**s of the charge transfer occurring in the materials were investigated, and are thoroughly discussed on the basis of molecular simulation. The PI has good thermal stability up to 400°C.
