Abstract
The 8x8 crossbar switches with sandwiching AgTCNQ (TCNQ = 7,7,8,8-tetracyano-p-quinodimethane) organic molecular materials were successfully fabricated, and electrical characteristics of the cross points were studied in this paper. In the OFF state, the resistance of switches was 5.60x103ohms that stands for "0"; while in the ON state, the resistance of switches was 1.96x103ohms that stands for "1". This phenomenon was simply interpreted based on phase transition caused by charge transfer. The switches could be used for memories as well as electrical configurable logic gates, such as an AND, an OR and even an NOT gate.
