Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>C. Park and co‐workers develop high‐performance, printable, non‐volatile polymer memories with solution‐processed nanocomposite films of a conjugated block copolymer, poly(styrene‐<italic>block</italic>‐paraphenylene) (PS‐<italic>b</italic>‐PPP), and single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). The devices, described <ext-link ext-link-type="doi" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">on page 831</ext-link>, show excellent reliability of both data retention over time and read/write cycle endurance at high temperatures of up to 100 °C without significant performance degradation. This arises from the strong, non‐destructive, and isomorphic π–π interactions between the SWNTs and the PPP block. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg1vb1x15q" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
