Abstract
Reconfigurable logic devices that can perform multiple functions with fewer components offer a solution for increasing data processing demands. Achieving reconfigurability without complex designs, however, remains challenging. In this study, we present a two-terminal reconfigurable homojunction device based on ionic-conducting CuInP 2 S 6 (CIPS). The device achieves tunable and reversible rectification by controlling Cu migration under an electric field. The homojunction is formed by modulating the contact potential of the CIPS channel, resulting in an asymmetric contact barrier. The resulting device has a rectification ratio of up to 4 × 10⁴, an ultra-low leakage current (∼100 fA), and a high breakdown voltage of 170 V, maintaining read stability over 3,000 cycles. It operates at frequencies up to 10 kHz and can be reconfigured as OR and AND logic states depending on the Cu migration direction of the CIPS homojunction.
