A novel small‐molecule boron(III)‐containing donor–acceptor compound has been synthesized and employed in the fabrication of solution‐processable electronic resistive memory devices. High ternary memory performances with low turn‐on ( V Th1 =2.0 V) and distinct threshold voltages ( V Th2 =3.3 V), small reading bias (1.0 V), and long retention time (>10 4 seconds) with a large ON/OFF ratio of each state (current ratio of “OFF”, “ON1”, and “ON2”=1:10 3 :10 6 ) have been demonstrated, suggestive of its potential application in high‐density data storage. The present design strategy provides new insight in the future design of memory devices with multi‐level transition states.
