Abstract
The memristor; a portmanteau of “memory resistor” was a term coined by circuit theorist Chua as a missing two-terminal nonlinear passive electrical component relating electric charge and magnetic flux linkage. The operation of RRAM devices was recently connected to the memristor concept by Strukov et al. Theoretical postulation of memristor is well described in the “Theoretical Postulation” section, followed by the characterization of memristor as a device model. Behavior of memristor for different input signals like sinusoidal, pulses, triangular wave, and constant DC is documented in the Behavior due to “Different Input Signals” section. The variation is reported as per resistance change with time and the effect of voltage of its operation that demonstrates the memristive effect. Various types of memristors has been documented in the “Types of Memristor” section. Memristor can be implemented in many applications like as from nonvolatile memory to signal processing and everything in-between, including remote sensing, high-speed computing architectures, and neuromorphic and biological systems. Applications of this nanoscale device is given in the “Applications” section followed by a summary.
