This publication concerns electronics modules comprising at least one first material zone formed of first material which can be structurally transformed by means of electric interaction in order to increase its conductivity at least locally, the first material having a first transformation threshold, and at least one second material zone in the vicinity of the first material zone. According to the invention, the second material zone is formed from second material, which can also be structurally transformed in order to increase its conductivity, the second material having a second transformation threshold, which is lower than the transformation threshold of the first material zone. With the aid of the invention, post-processing electrical programmability and non-volatility of printable memories can be achieved.
A method for forming an electrics module, the method comprising forming to the module a structure comprising at least one first material zone and at least one second material zone in the vicinity of the first material zone, the first material zone being formed of first material which can be structurally transformed by means of electric interaction in order to increase its conductivity at least locally, the first material having a first transformation threshold, characterized by using a second material zone formed from second material, which can be structurally transformed in order to increase its conductivity, the second material having a second transformation threshold being lower than the transformation threshold of the first material zone.
