A non-volatile memory apparatus includes a first hydrogen reservoir, which is electrically conductive; a charge of hydrogen, which is captured in the first hydrogen reservoir; a dielectric layer that has a first side that is adjacent to the first hydrogen reservoir and a second side that is opposite from the first hydrogen reservoir; a second hydrogen reservoir that is adjacent to the second side of the dielectric layer, is electrically conductive, and has a side that is opposite from the dielectric layer; and a piezoelectric layer that is adjacent to the side of the second hydrogen reservoir and that has a side that is opposite from the second hydrogen reservoir.
