Abstract
MISS switches incorporating Langmuir-Blodgett films as insulating layers are reported for the first time. Devices fabricated using n on p+ GaAs and including a 9 nm-thick ¿-tricosenoic acid insulating layer are shown to possess good characteristics. The results indicate that switching occurs due to a `punch-through¿ mechanism.
