Succinonitrile as a Versatile Additive for Polymer Electrolytes

Solid polymer electrolytes with high ionic conductivities are prepared by using poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and poly(vinylidene fluoride‐co‐hexafluoropropylene) (P(VDF‐HFP)) as polymer matrixes, succinonitrile (SN) as an additive, and lithium bis‐trifluoromethanesulfonimide (LiTFSI) and lithium bisperfluoroethylsulfonylimide (LiBETI) as salts. In these systems, the introduction of succinonitrile into the polymer electrolytes increases the material's ionic conductivity and conveys excellent mechanical properties. The described composites, with their beneficial combination of mechanical and electric properties, are expected to have significant potential for lithium batteries.     

Multiferroic Polymer Laminate Composites Exhibiting High Magnetoelectric Response Induced by Hydrogen‐Bonding Interactions

The coupling of the magnetic, electric, and elastic properties in multiferroics creates new collective phenomena and enables next‐generation device paradigms. In this work, the hydrogen bonding interaction between hydrate salts and ferroelectric polymers is exploited in the development of high‐performance magnetoelectric (ME) polymer laminate composites. The microstructures and crystallite structures of the Al(NO₃)₃·9H₂O doped poly(vinylidene fluoride‐co‐hexafluoropropylene), P(VDF‐HFP), are carefully studied. The effect of hydrogen bonding interaction on the polarization ordering of the ferroelectric polymers is investigated by 2D wide‐angle X‐ray diffraction, polarized Fourier transform infrared spectra, and dielectric spectra at varied frequencies and temperatures. It is found that hydrogen bond not only promotes the formation of the polar crystallite phase but also improves the polarization ordering in the ferroelectric polymer, which subsequently increases the remnant polarization of the polymers as verified in the polarization‐electric field loop measurements. These entail marked improvement in the ME voltage coefficients (α_ME) of the resulting polymer laminate composites based on ferromagnetic Metglas relative to analogous composites. The composite exhibits a state‐of‐the‐art α_ME value of 20 V cm^‐1 Oe under a dc magnetic field of ≈4 Oe and a colossal α_ME of 320 V cm^‐1 Oe at a frequency of 68 kHz.     

Confined Ferroelectric Properties in Poly(Vinylidene Fluoride‐co‐Chlorotrifluoroethylene)‐graft‐Polystyrene Graft Copolymers for Electric Energy Storage Applications

Dielectric polymer film capacitors having high energy density, low loss and fast discharge speed are highly desirable for compact and reliable electrical power systems. In this work, we study the confined ferroelectric properties in a series of poly(vinylidene fluoride‐co‐chlorotrifluoroethylene)‐graft‐polystyrene [P(VDF‐CTFE)‐g‐PS] graft copolymers, and their potential application as high energy density and low loss capacitor films. Thin films (ca. 20 μm) are prepared by different processing methods, namely, hot‐pressing or solution‐casting followed by mechanical stretching at elevated temperatures. After crystallization‐induced microphase separation, PS side chains are segregated to the periphery of PVDF crystals, forming a confining interfacial layer. Due to the low polarizability of this confining PS‐rich layer at the amorphous–crystalline interface, the compensation polarization is substantially decreased resulting in a novel confined ferroelectric behavior in these graft copolymers. Both dielectric and ferroelectric losses are significantly reduced at the expense of a moderate decrease in discharged energy density. Our study indicates that the best performance is achieved for a P(VDF‐CTFE)‐g‐PS graft copolymer with 34 wt‐% PS; a relatively high discharged energy density of approximately 10 J cm^?3 at 600 MV m^?1, a low dielectric loss (tanδ = 0.006 at 1 kHz), and a low hysteresis loop loss (17.6%) at 550 MV m^?1.     

Sustainable Nanotextured Wave Energy Harvester Based on Ferroelectric Fatigue‐Free and Flexoelectricity‐Enhanced Piezoelectric P(VDF‐TrFE) Nanofibers with BaSrTiO3 Nanoparticles

Here, ultrathin, flexible, and sustainable nanofiber‐based piezoelectric nanogenerators (NF‐PENGs) are fabricated and applied as wave energy harvesters. The NF‐PENGs are composed of poly(vinylidene fluoride‐co‐trifluoroethylene) (P(VDF‐TrFE)) nanofibers with embedded barium strontium titanate (BaSrTiO₃) nanoparticles, which are fabricated by using facile, scalable, and cost‐effective fiber‐forming methods, including electrospinning and solution blowing. The inclusion of ferroelectric BaSrTiO₃ nanoparticles inside the electrospun P(VDF‐TrFE) nanofibers enhances the sustainability of the NF‐PENGs and results in unique flexoelectricity‐enhanced piezoelectric nanofibers. Not only do these NF‐PENGs yield a superior performance compared to the previously reported NF‐PENGs, but they also exhibit an outstanding durability in terms of mechanical properties and cyclability. Furthermore, a new theoretical estimate of the energy harvesting efficiency from the water waves is introduced here, which can also be employed in future studies associated with various nanogenerators, including PENGs and triboelectric nanogenerators.     

Non‐volatile Ferroelectric Poly(vinylidene fluoride‐co‐trifluoroethylene) Memory Based on a Single‐Crystalline Tri‐isopropylsilylethynyl Pentacene Field‐Effect Transistor

A new type of nonvolatile ferroelectric poly(vinylidene fluoride‐co‐trifluoroethylene) (P(VDF‐TrFE)) memory based on an organic thin‐film transistor (OTFT) with a single crystal of tri‐isopropylsilylethynyl pentacene (TIPS‐PEN) as the active layer is developed. A bottom‐gate OTFT is fabricated with a thin P(VDF‐TrFE) film gate insulator on which a one‐dimensional ribbon‐type TIPS‐PEN single crystal, grown via a solvent‐exchange method, is positioned between the Au source and drain electrodes. Post‐thermal treatment optimizes the interface between the flat, single‐crystalline ab plane of TIPS‐PEN and the polycrystalline P(VDF‐TrFE) surface with characteristic needle‐like crystalline lamellae. As a consequence, the memory device exhibits a substantially stable source–drain current modulation with an ON/OFF ratio hysteresis greater than 10³, which is superior to a ferroelectric P(VDF‐TrFE) OTFT that has a vacuum‐evaporated pentacene layer. Data retention longer than 5 × 10⁴ s is additionally achieved in ambient conditions by incorporating an interlayer between the gate electrode and P(VDF‐TrFE) thin film. The device is environmentally stable for more than 40 days without additional passivation. The deposition of a seed solution of TIPS‐PEN on the chemically micropatterned surface allows fabrication arrays of TIPS‐PEN single crystals that can be potentially useful for integrated arrays of ferroelectric polymeric TFT memory.     

A High‐k Fluorinated P(VDF‐TrFE)‐g‐PMMA Gate Dielectric for High‐Performance Flexible Field‐Effect Transistors

A newly synthesized high‐k polymeric insulator for use as gate dielectric layer for organic field‐effect transistors (OFETs) obtained by grafting poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) in poly(vinylidene fluoride‐trifluoroethylene) (P(VDF‐TrFE)) via atom transfer radical polymerization transfer is reported. This material design concept intents to tune the electrical properties of the gate insulating layer (capacitance, leakage current, breakdown voltage, and operational stability) of the high‐k fluorinated polymer dielectric without a large increase in operating voltage by incorporating an amorphous PMMA as an insulator. By controlling the grafted PMMA percentage, an optimized P(VDF‐TrFE)‐g‐PMMA with 7 mol% grafted PMMA showing reasonably high capacitance (23–30 nF cm^?2) with low voltage operation and negligible current hysteresis is achieved. High‐performance low‐voltage‐operated top‐gate/bottom‐contact OFETs with widely used high mobility polymer semiconductors, poly[[2,5‐bis(2‐octyldodecyl)‐2,3,5,6‐tetrahydro‐3,6‐dioxopyrrolo [3,4‐c]pyrrole‐1,4‐diyl]‐alt‐[[2,2′‐(2,5‐thiophene)bis‐thieno(3,2‐b)thiophene]‐5,5′‐diyl]] (DPPT‐TT), and poly([N,N′‐bis(2‐octyldodecyl)‐naphthalene‐1,4,5,8‐bis(dicarboximide)‐2,6‐diyl]‐alt‐5,5′‐(2,2′‐bithiophene)) are demonstrated here. DPPT‐TT OFETs with P(VDF‐TrFE)‐g‐PMMA gate dielectrics exhibit a reasonably high field‐effect mobility of over 1 cm² V^?1 s^?1 with excellent operational stability.     

A High‐Performance Graphene Oxide‐Doped Ion Gel as Gel Polymer Electrolyte for All‐Solid‐State Supercapacitor Applications

A high‐performance graphene oxide (GO)‐doped ion gel (P(VDF‐HFP)‐EMIMBF₄‐GO gel) is prepared by exploiting copolymer (poly(vinylidene fluoride‐hexafluoro propylene), P(VDF‐HFP)) as the polymer matrix, ionic liquid (1‐ethyl‐3‐methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, EMIMBF₄) as the supporting electrolyte, and GO as the ionic conducting promoter. This GO‐doped ion gel demonstrates significantly improved ionic conductivity compared with that of pure ion gel without the addition of GO, due to the homogeneously distributed GO as a 3D network throughout the GO‐doped ion gel by acting like a ion “highway” to facilitate the ion transport. With the incorporation of only a small amount of GO (1 wt%) in ion gel, there has been a dramatic improvement in ionic conductivity of about 260% compared with that of pure ion gel. In addition, the all‐solid‐state supercapacitor is fabricated and measured at room temperature using the GO‐doped ion gel as gel polymer electrolyte, which demonstrates more superior electrochemical performance than the all‐solid‐state supercapacitor with pure ion gel and the conventional supercapacitor with neat EMIMBF₄, in the aspect of smaller internal resistance, higher capacitance performance, and better cycle stability. These excellent performances are due to the high ionic conductivity, excellent compatibility with carbon electrodes, and long‐term stability of the GO‐doped ion gel.     

Positively K+‐Responsive Membranes with Functional Gates Driven by Host–Guest Molecular Recognition

A novel positively K⁺‐responsive membrane with functional gates driven by host‐guest molecular recognition is prepared by grafting poly(N‐isopropylacrylamide‐co‐acryloylamidobenzo‐15‐crown‐5) (poly(NIPAM‐co‐AAB₁₅C₅)) copolymer chains in the pores of porous nylon‐6 membranes with a two‐step method combining plasma‐induced pore‐filling grafting polymerization and chemical modification. Due to the cooperative interaction of host‐guest complexation and phase transition of the poly(NIPAM‐co‐AAB₁₅C₅), the grafted gates in the membrane pores could spontaneously switch from “closed” state to “open” state by recognizing K⁺ ions in the environment and vice versa; while other ions (e.g., Na⁺, Ca²⁺ or Mg²⁺) can not trigger such an ion‐responsive switching function. The positively K⁺‐responsive gating action of the membrane is rapid, reversible, and reproducible. The proposed K⁺‐responsive gating membrane provide a new mode of behavior for ion‐recognizable “smart” or “intelligent” membrane actuators, which is highly attractive for controlled release, chemical/biomedical separations, tissue engineering, sensors, etc.     

An All‐Solid‐State Flexible Piezoelectric High‐k Film Functioning as Both a Generator and In Situ Storage Unit

An all‐solid‐state flexible generator–capacitor polymer composite film converts low‐frequency biomechanical energy into stored electric energy. This design, which combines the functionality of a generator with a capacitor, is realized by employing poly(vinylidene fluoride‐co‐hexafluoropropylene) (PVDF‐HFP) in the simultaneous dual role of piezoelectric generator and polymer matrices of the flexible capacitor. Proper surface modification of the reduced graphene oxide (rGO) fillers in the polymeric matrices is indispensable in achieving the superior energy storage performance of the composite film. The heightened dielectric performance stems from enhanced compatibility of the rGO fillers and PVDF‐HFP matrices, and a microcapacitor model properly explains the dielectric behaviors. A device that is easily fabricated using our film allows timely decoupled motion energy harvest and output of the motion‐generated electricity. This report opens new design possibilities in the fields of motion sensors, information storage and high‐voltage output by accumulating low‐frequency random biological motions.     

High‐Performance Ferroelectric Memory Based on Phase‐Separated Films of Polymer Blends

High‐performance polymer memory is fabricated using blends of ferroelectric poly(vinylidene‐fluoride‐trifluoroethylene) (P(VDF‐TrFE)) and highly insulating poly(p‐phenylene oxide) (PPO). The blend films spontaneously phase separate into amorphous PPO nanospheres embedded in a semicrystalline P(VDF‐TrFE) matrix. Using low molecular weight PPO with high miscibility in a common solvent, i.e., methyl ethyl ketone, blend films are spin cast with extremely low roughness (R_rms ≈ 4.92 nm) and achieve nanoscale phase seperation (PPO domain size < 200 nm). These blend devices display highly improved ferroelectric and dielectric performance with low dielectric losses (<0.2 up to 1 MHz), enhanced thermal stability (up to ≈353 K), excellent fatigue endurance (80% retention after 10⁶ cycles at 1 KHz) and high dielectric breakdown fields (≈360 MV/m).     

Fully Transparent Non‐volatile Memory Thin‐Film Transistors Using an Organic Ferroelectric and Oxide Semiconductor Below 200 °C

A fully transparent non‐volatile memory thin‐film transistor (T‐MTFT) is demonstrated. The gate stack is composed of organic ferroelectric poly(vinylidene fluoride‐trifluoroethylene) [P(VDF‐TrFE)] and oxide semiconducting Al‐Zn‐Sn‐O (AZTO) layers, in which thin Al₂O₃ is introduced between two layers. All the fabrication processes are performed below 200 °C on the glass substrate. The transmittance of the fabricated device was more than 90% at the wavelength of 550 nm. The memory window obtained in the T‐MTFT was 7.5 V with a gate voltage sweep of ?10 to 10 V, and it was still 1.8 V even with a lower voltage sweep of ?6 to 6 V. The field‐effect mobility, subthreshold swing, on/off ratio, and gate leakage currents were obtained to be 32.2 cm² V^?1 s^?1, 0.45 V decade^?1, 10⁸, and 10^?13 A, respectively. All these characteristics correspond to the best performances among all types of non‐volatile memory transistors reported so far, although the programming speed and retention time should be more improved.     

Semitransparent,Flexible, and Self‐Powered Photodetectors Based on Ferroelectricity‐Assisted Perovskite Nanowire Arrays

Transparent and flexible photodetectors hold great promise in next‐generation portable and wearable optoelectronic devices. However, most of the previously reported devices need an external energy power source to drive its operation or require complex fabrication processes. Herein, designed is a semitransparent, flexible, and self‐powered photodetector based on the integrated ferroelectric poly(vinylidene‐fluoride‐trifluoroethylene) (P(VDF‐TrFE)) and perovskite nanowire arrays on the flexible polyethylene naphthalate substrate via a facile imprinting method. Through optimizing the treatment conditions, including polarization voltage, polarization time, and the concentration of P(VDF‐TrFE), the resulting device exhibits remarkable detectivity (7.3 × 10¹² Jones), fast response time (88/154 µs) at zero bias, as well as outstanding mechanical stability. The excellent performance is attributed to the efficient charge separation and transport originating from the highly oriented 1D transport pathway and the polarization‐induced internal electric field within P(VDF‐TrFE)/perovskite hybrid nanowire arrays.     

Ultrahigh‐Performance Flexible and Self‐Powered Photodetectors with Ferroelectric P(VDF‐TrFE)/Perovskite Bulk Heterojunction

Flexible and self‐powered perovskite photodetectors attract widespread research interests due to their potential applications in portable and wearable optoelectronic devices. However, the reported devices mainly adopt an independent layered structure with complex fabrication processes and high carrier recombination. Herein, an integrated ferroelectric poly(vinylidene‐fluoride‐trifluoroethylene) (P(VDF‐TrFE)) and perovskite bulk heterojunction film photodetector on the polyethylene naphthalate substrate is demonstrated. Under the optimum treatment conditions (the polarization voltage and time, and the concentration of P(VDF‐TrFE)), the photodetector exhibits a largely enhanced performance compared to the pristine perovskite device. The resulting device exhibits ultrahigh performance with a large detectivity (1.4 × 10¹³ Jones) and fast response time (92/193 µs) at the wavelength of 650 nm. The improved performance is attributed to the fact that the polarized P(VDF‐TrFE)/perovskite hybrid film provides a stronger built‐in electric field to facilitate the separation and transportation of photogenerated carriers. These findings provide a new route to design self‐powered photodetectors from the aspect of device structure and carrier transport.     

A Structurable Gel‐Polymer Electrolyte for Sodium Ion Batteries

In this work, a structurable gel‐polymer electrolyte (SGPE) with a controllable pore structure that is not destroyed after immersion in an electrolyte is produced via a simple nonsolvent induced phase separation (NIPS) method. This study investigates how the regulation of the nonsolvent content affects the evolving nanomorphology of the composite separators and overcomes the drawbacks of conventional separators, such as glass fiber (GF), which has been widely used in sodium ion batteries (SIBs), through the regulation of pore size and gel‐polymer position. The interfacial resistance is reduced through selective positioning of a poly(vinylidene fluoride‐co‐hexa fluoropropylene) (PVdF‐HFP) gel‐polymer with the aid of NIPS, which in turn enhances the compatibility between the electrolyte and electrode. In addition, the highly porous morphology of the GF/SGPE obtained via NIPS allows for the absorption of more liquid electrolyte. Thus, a greatly improved cell performance of the SIBs is observed when a tailored SGPE is incorporated into the GF separator through charge/discharge testing compared with the performance observed with pristine GF and conventional GF coated with PVdF‐HFP gel‐polymer.     

All‐Polymer Bistable Resistive Memory Device Based on Nanoscale Phase‐Separated PCBM‐Ferroelectric Blends

All polymer nonvolatile bistable memory devices are fabricated from blends of ferroelectric poly(vinylidenefluoride–trifluoroethylene (P(VDF‐TrFE)) and n‐type semiconducting [6,6]‐phenyl‐C61‐butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM). The nanoscale phase separated films consist of PCBM domains that extend from bottom to top electrode, surrounded by a ferroelectric P(VDF‐TrFE) matrix. Highly conducting poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) polymer electrodes are used to engineer band offsets at the interfaces. The devices display resistive switching behavior due to modulation of this injection barrier. With careful optimization of the solvent and processing conditions, it is possible to spin cast very smooth blend films (R_rms ≈ 7.94 nm) and with good reproducibility. The devices exhibit high I_on/I_off ratios (≈3 × 10³), low read voltages (≈5 V), excellent dielectric response at high frequencies (?_r ≈ 8.3 at 1 MHz), and excellent retention characteristics up to 10 000 s.     

A Versatile Buffer Layer for Polymer Solar Cells: Rendering Surface Potential by Regulating Dipole

Spin‐coated film of poly(vinylidenefluoride‐hexafluoropropylene) (P(VDF‐HFP)) acts as a cathode/anode buffer layer in polymer solar cells (PSCs) with conventional/inverted device structures. Such devices show optimized performances comparable with the controlled device, making P(VDF‐HFP) a good substitute for LiF/MoO₃ as a cathode/anode buffer layer. Ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS) and Kelvin force microscope (KFM) measurements show that increased surface potential of active layers improves cathode contact. In piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM) measurement, P(VDF‐HFP) responds to applied bias in phase curve, showing tunable dipole. This tunable dipole renders surface potential under applied bias. As a result, open‐circuit voltage of devices alters instantly with poling voltage. Moreover, positive poling of P(VDF‐HFP) together with simultaneous oxidation of Ag gradually improves performance of inverted structure device. Integer charge transfer (ICT) model elucidates improved electrode contacts by dipole tuning, varying surface potential and vacuum level shift. Understanding the function of dipole makes P(VDF‐HFP) a promising and versatile buffer layer for PSCs.     

Clay Nanosheets in Skeletons of Controlled Phase Inversion Separators for Thermally Stable Li‐Ion Batteries

Phase inversion is a powerful alternative process for preparing ultra‐thin separators for various secondary batteries. Unfortunately, separators prepared from phase inversion generally suffer from uneven pore size and pore size distribution, which frequently results in poor battery performance. Here, a straightforward route is demonstrated to solve the drawbacks of phase‐inversion‐based separators for Li‐ion batteries by means of directly incorporating 2D clay sheets in the skeleton of poly(vinylidene fluoride‐co‐hexafluoropropylene) (PVdF‐HFP) with multiscale pore generation from a simple one‐step solution coating method. Additionally generated pores by the inclusion of 2D nanosheets in PVdF‐HFP skeletons, combined with the multiscale pores (several micrometers + sub‐micrometers) originally generated by means of the controlled phase inversion, can generate additional ionic transport pathways, leading to Li‐ion battery performances better than those of commercialized polyethylene separators. Moreover, the addition of extremely low contents of 2D clay sheets in PVdF‐HFP separators allows thermally stable polymer separators to be realized.     

A Flexible Dual‐Ion Battery Based on Sodium‐Ion Quasi‐Solid‐State Electrolyte with Long Cycling Life

Sodium‐based dual‐ion batteries (SDIBs) have attracted much attention for their advantages of high operating voltage, environmental friendliness, and especially low cost. However, the electrochemical performances of the reported SDIBs are still unsatisfied due to the decomposition problem of traditional liquid electrolyte under high working voltage. Development of quasi‐solid‐state electrolytes (QSSEs) with excellent electrochemical stability at high voltage is a possible means to improve their properties. In this work, a flexible SDIB based on a QSSE, consisting of poly(vinylidene ?uoride‐co‐hexa?uoropropylene) (PVDF‐HFP) three‐dimensionally cross‐linked with Al₂O₃ nanoparticles, which exhibits a porous 3D structure with dramatically enhanced ionic conductivity up to ≈1.3 × 10^?3 S cm^?1, facilitating fast ionic migration of both anions and cations, is reported. This quasi‐state SDIB exhibits a high specific capacity of 96.8 mAh g^?1 at a current rate of 5 C and excellent cycling stability with a capacity retention of 97.5% after 600 cycles at 5 C, which is the best performance of the SDIBs. Moreover, excellent flexibility and a wide working temperature range (?20 to 70 °C) have been realized for this battery, suggesting its potential for high‐performance flexible energy storage applications.     

Multifunctional Up‐Converting Nanocomposites with Smart Polymer Brushes Gated Mesopores for Cell Imaging and Thermo/pH Dual‐Responsive Drug Controlled Release

Multifunctional nanocarriers based on the up‐conversion luminescent nanoparticles of NaYF₄:Yb³⁺/Er³⁺ core (UCNPs) and thermo/pH‐coupling sensitive polymer poly[(N‐isopropylacrylamide)‐co‐(methacrylic acid)] (P(NIPAm‐co‐MAA)) gated mesoporous silica shell are reported for cancer theranostics, including fluorescence imaging, and for controlled drug release for therapy. The as‐synthesized hybrid nanospheres UCNPs@mSiO₂‐P(NIPAm‐co‐MAA) show bright green up‐conversion fluorescence under 980 nm laser excitation and the thermo/pH‐sensitive polymer is active as a “valve” to moderate the diffusion of the embedded drugs in‐and‐out of the pore channels of the silica container. The anticancer drug doxorubicin hydrochloride (DOX) can be absorbed into UCNPs@mSiO₂‐P(NIPAm‐co‐MAA) nanospheres and the composite drug delivery system (DDS) shows a low level of leakage at low temperature/high pH values but significantly enhanced release at higher temperature/lower pH values, exhibiting an apparent thermo/pH controlled “on‐off” drug release pattern. The as‐prepared UCNPs@mSiO₂‐P(NIPAm‐co‐MAA) hybrid nanospheres can be used as bioimaging agents and biomonitors to track the extent of drug release. The reported multifunctional nanocarriers represent a novel and versatile class of platform for simultaneous imaging and stimuli‐responsive controlled drug delivery.     

Control of Current Hysteresis of Networked Single‐Walled Carbon Nanotube Transistors by a Ferroelectric Polymer Gate Insulator

Films made of 2D networks of single‐walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) are one of the most promising active‐channel materials for field‐effect transistors (FETs) and have a variety of flexible electronic applications, ranging from biological and chemical sensors to high‐speed switching devices. Challenges, however, still remain due to the current hysteresis of SWNT‐containing FETs, which has hindered further development. A new and robust method to control the current hysteresis of a SWNT‐network FET is presented, which involves the non‐volatile polarization of a ferroelectric poly(vinylidene fluoride‐trifluoroethylene) (P(VDF‐TrFE)) gate insulator. A top‐gate FET with a solution‐processed SWNT‐network exhibits significant suppression of the hysteresis when the gate‐voltage sweep is greater than the coercive field of the ferroelectric polymer layer (≈50 MV m^?1). These near‐hysteresis‐free characteristics are believed to be due to the characteristic hysteresis of the P(VDF‐TrFE), resulting from its non‐volatile polarization, which makes effective compensation for the current hysteresis of the SWNT‐network FETs. The onset voltage for hysteresis‐minimized operation is able to be tuned simply by controlling the thickness of the ferroelectric film, which opens the possibility of operating hysteresis‐free devices with gate voltages down to a few volts.
