MEMRISTOR OUTLINE 1. What is a memristor? 2. How does it work? 3. How to apply? WHAT IS A MEMRISTOR? • A memristor is a non-linear component relating electric charge and magnetic flux linkage.It was described and named in 1971 by Leon Chua, completing a theoretical quartet of fundamental electrical components which comprises also the resistor, capacitor and inductor. • от англ. memory — память, и англ. resistor — электрическое сопротивление HOW DOES IT WORK? • The memristor is able to change its resistance depending on the charge flowing through it. This makes it a nonvolatile memory device, which can be more efficient than the flash memory used in computers and smartphones. It can completely replace RAM, and we can forget about the concept of "booting up the system" in a computer. We’ll be able to continue our work from where it was last stopped. • от англ. Random Access Memory, RAM — оперативная память. HOW TO APPLY? • A newly-patented method for analysing memristor performance is based on the analysis of the electronic current microstructure. The proposed method extends the arsenal of measurement technology in the production of memristors, which have become the basis for a new generation of non-volatile memory devices. Future applications of memristors range from superconducting quantum computers to creating artificial synapses (a synapse is a structure that permits a neuron to pass an electrical or chemical signal to another neuron) in complex neural networks.
