To make the memory elements addressable, we introduce nanostructures of a quinone-based charge-transfer complex. The devices based on charge-transfer complexes exhibit electrical bistability. Apart from characterizing complex formation, we study characteristics of memory devices based on the complexes. The mechanism of bistability has been discussed in terms of electroreduction of the quinone derivative with the formation of a percolating network of conducting molecules or channels across the device. Depending on the device architecture, a device may exhibit memoryswitching or threshold-switching phenomenon. The former system has displayed read-only and random-access memory applications.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9</style></issue><custom2><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Council of Scientific &amp;amp; Industrial Research (CSIR) - India&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom2><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6.79</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
