Abstract
Two asymmetric diamines [1,1′-biphenyl]-4-yl(3,5-diaminophenyl) methanone (BPDAM) and (3,5-diaminophenyl)(4′-(naphthalen-1-yl)-[1,1′-biphenyl]-4-yl) methanone(DANPBPM) were synthesized by Suzuki coupling reaction from (4-bromophenyl)(3,5-diaminophenyl) methanone (BDAM) and corresponding arylboronic acid. A series of polyimides exhibiting organic solubility were prepared from 2,2′,3,3′-biphenyl tetracarboxylic dianhydride(BPDA) and these above three new diamines via a two-stage process. The obtained polymers showed outstanding organic solubility and high thermal stability. And studies have shown that the storage device with a sandwich type configuration of Al/polyimide/ITO was prepared by the traditional liquid spin coating technology, which showed the storage capacity of flash memory type. All the polyimide-based devices showed bistable conductivity switching and nonvolatile memory behavior that had long preservation period and high ON/OFF electric current, the rate of which was 104.
