Abstract

Resistive switching (RS) for nonvolatile data storage is a highly relevant field of research. Up to now, RS devices are fabricated via semiconductor processing technologies. This poses the question of whether integration of chemically tailored nanoparticles, either consisting of valence change or phase change materials, can be integrated in nanoelectrode configurations in order to explore their functionality for RS applications. This review discusses the RS properties of such nanoparticles by means of selected examples of both nanoparticle assemblies as well as on the individual particle level. Although this field of research is rather unexplored, it becomes evident that chemically tailored nanoparticles bear great potential for RS applications.
