A memristor is a two-terminal memory nanoscale device that stores information in terms of high/low resistance. It can retain information even when the power source is removed, ie, "non-volatile." In contrast to MOS Transistors (MOST), which are the building blocks of all modern mobile and computing devices, memristors are relatively immune to radiation, as well as parasitic effects, such as capacitance, and can be much more reliable. This is extremely attractive for critical safety applications, such as nuclear and aerospace, where radiation can cause failure in MOST-based systems.
Memristors can be miniaturized much smaller compared to MOSTs and they can also be integrated with MOSTs without much difficulty. These devices are finding applications in memory, logic, neuromorphic, sensors, solar cells and OxRAM, as well as in security.
This book provides theoretical frameworks that include, (i) the background of memristors, (ii) physics of memristor and their modeling, (iii) menristive device applications, and (iv) circuit design for security and authentication. The book then focuses on a broad aspect of realization of these applications as low cost and reliable devices.
This is an important reference source that will help materials scientists and engineers who want to understand more about the production and applications of nanoscale memrister devices.
