The memristor was listed by TIME magazine as one of the top inventions of 2008 and could revolutionize non-volatile memory by replacing transistor based memory cells with a new type of nanoscale resistance switch. In addition, there has been some speculation that the memristor may be a key ingredient to a ...

Last week researchers at Hewlett-Packard indicated that their nanoscale crossbar arrays may see commercialization as early as next year in ultra high density non-volatile memory. While the initial research into nanoscale crossbar technology was performed by Stan Williams and Phil Kuekes in the late 1990's, the recent discovery of the "memristor" characterized as ...

Typically passive electronic components are divided into three categories - resistors, capacitors, and inductors. According to this recent article in EETimes, a fourth passive component referred to as a "Memristor" was discovered by Stanley Williams group at Hewlett Packard. The material for this new component is taught to be based ...
