Abstract
Organic mixed ionic–electronic conductors (OMIECs) are promising materials for electrochemical devices, as their coupled ionic and electronic transport enables ion-driven electrochemical doping and allows OMIEC-based devices to mimic key features of biological synaptic behavior. While previous research has predominantly focused on active materials to understand synaptic behavior, whereas the role of electrolyte-dependent ion dynamics has received less attention. In this study, we investigated ion transport and memory dynamics in two-terminal organic electrochemical diodes. The devices exhibited distinct synaptic responses depending on the electrolyte, including long-term potentiation (LTP) and short-term potentiation (STP). Operando measurements revealed structural changes in the OMIEC channel during device operation, suggesting that electrolyte-dependent ion trapping governs the coupling among electrochemical modulation, structural evolution, and synaptic behavior.
