SWITCHING DEVICE AND METHOD OF PREPARING IT

摘要

A swiching device comprises a pair of electrodes (2,5), an organic insulating layer (3) and an inorganic oxide layer (4) which are held between the electrodes. The organic insulating layer is comprised of an organic compound having at least one pi -electron level and the inorganic oxide layer is comprised of a metal oxide. Another swiching device comprises a pair of electrodes (2,5), an organic insulating thin film (3) provided between the electrodes and said organic insulating thin film in such a manner that an electrification region between the electrodes may be restricted.
