Memristive devices

摘要

Memristors and memristive devices moved into the center of attention of the scientific community when Dimitri Strukov and co-workers published their seminal work in 2008. Memristors-which are basic two-terminal devices-complement existing (digital) semiconductor technology in a fascinating way. This might lead to new approaches in adaptive, analog computer systems, which are e.g. robust and consume very little power. In the future, the distinct properties of memristive devices might even lead to neuromorphic computer systems.
