A solution‐processed electrochemical charge‐trap flash memory element is based on a solid solution of copper and zirconium oxides (Cu‐ZrO 2 ) as a charge‐trapping layer. Because of the facile reduction of Cu 2+ to Cu 1+ , Cu‐ZrO 2 thin films are especially effective in memory devices based on thin‐film transistors when the devices are fabricated from combustion‐processed metal–oxide semiconductors (In 2 O 3 and an indium–gallium oxide).
