Title:
ELECTRONIC ELEMENT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/142040
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is an electronic element that functions as a switch or memory even if a metal nanoparticle is not used. The electronic element is provided with an electrode (5A) and another electrode (5B) that are arranged so as to have a nanogap therebetween and a halogen ion (6) that is provided between the electrode (5A) and the other electrode (5B) on at least one of the electrodes. When voltage between the electrode (5A) and the other electrode (5B) is continuously and repeatedly varied from a positive value to a negative value and from a negative value to a positive value, the waveform of electrical current flowing between the electrode (5A) and the other electrode (5B) is asymmetrical. The state of the halogen ion (6) is varied in accordance with the value of the voltage that is applied between the electrode (5A) and the other electrode (5B) so that an information writing state and an information erasing state are maintained in accordance with the value of the electrical current that flows between the electrode (5A) and the other electrode (5B).
