Fig. 1: Schematic illustration of the hypothesis for memristor devices based on monolayer h-BN, where we proposed that large variations in the current on/off ratio and switching voltage are influenced by the electrode-BN distance d.

a For devices with shorter interface distances, they have lower current on/off ratios and lower switching voltages. b For devices with larger interface distances, they show higher current on/off ratios and higher switching voltages. Note that the interface (electrode-to-electrode) distance is 2 d.
