Despite many advanced growth methodologies for organic nanofibers (ONFs), the lack of efficient and scalable ONF-based film preparation technologies has long been a hindrance in their practical application in organic electronic devices. Here, a typical cathode electrophoretic deposition (C-EPD) technology was developed to controllably produce ONFs and their corresponding thin films. Using the solvent effect and an external electric field force during the C-EPD process, a one-dimensional ONF network was formed, which exhibits compact molecular packing and superior optoelectronic properties in the thin-film state. Prototype sandwich-structure memory devices based on these ONF films exhibited a binary nonvolatile memory performance significantly superior than that of the bulk materials. This study provides an efficient and scalable ONF fabrication technology for high-performance electronic devices in various potential applications.
