<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a bistable device and a bistable memory element which assure characteristic control capability, low-cost fabrication and stabilized characteristics, as well as to provide manufacturing methods for them. <P>SOLUTION: At least a part of each on the bistable device and the bistable memory element is composed of an organic microcrystal, and an organic bistable layer is incorporated which changes the resistance depending on the bias voltage, thus assuring the characteristic control capability, low-cost fabrication and reduced variation in the characteristics. Similarly, at least a part of each on the bistable device and the bistable memory device is composed of an organic microcrystal, and an organic bistable layer is incorporated which is switched to a low-resistance state below the predetermined resistance range or a high-resistance state above the predetermined resistance range depending on the bias voltage, thus assuring the characteristic control capability, low-cost fabrication and reduced variation in the characteristics. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
