Non-volatile memristors dynamically switch between high (HRS) and low resistance states (LRS) in response to electrical stimuli, essential for electronic memories, neuromorphic computing, and artificial intelligence. High-entropy Prussian blue analogs (HE-PBAs) are promising insertion-type battery materials due to their diverse composition, high structural integrity, and favorable ionic conductivity. This work proposes a non-volatile, bipolar memristor based on HE-PBA. The device, featuring an active layer of HE-PBA sandwiched between Ag and ITO electrodes, is fabricated by inkjet printing and microplotting. The conduction mechanism of the Ag/HE-PBA/ITO device is systematically investigated. The results indicate that the transition between HRS and LRS is driven by an insulating-metallic transition, triggered by extraction/insertion of highly mobile Na ions upon application of an electric field. The memristor operates through a low-energy process akin to Na shuttling in Na-ion batteries rather than depending on formation/rupture of Ag filaments. Notably, it showcases promising characteristics, including non-volatility, self-compliance, and forming-free behavior, and further exhibits low operation voltage (V = -0.26 V, V = 0.36 V), low power consumption (P = 26 µW, P = 8.0 µW), and a high R/R ratio of 10. This underscores the potential of high-entropy insertion materials for developing printed memristors with distinct operation mechanisms.

Manganese Hexacyanoferrate (Mn─HCF) is a preferred cathode material for sodium-ion batteries used in large-scale energy storage. However, the inherent vacancies and the presence of HO within the imperfect crystal structure of Mn─HCF lead to material failure and interface failure when used as a cathode. Addressing the challenge of constructing a stable cathode is an urgent scientific problem that needs to be solved to enhance the performance and lifespan of these batteries.
