Device and method for storing or switching

Abstract

A method for storing or switching. The method comprises: arranging a first layer including a first molecular network having a first 2D lattice structure and a second layer including a second molecular network having a second 2D lattice structure at a distance from each other such that the first and the second molecular network interact electronically via molecular orbital interactions, and rotating the first layer relative to the second layer by a rotation angle with a rotation device, wherein an electrical resistance between the first molecular network and the second molecular network changes as a function of the rotation angle, thereby storing information by switching the electrical resistance.
