Memristor: 37 Years Later

In the May 1 2008 issue of Nature, scientists from the Hewlett-Packard Company unveiled a nano-scale device called the memristor, a hypothetical circuit element postulated in 1971. This Nature paper has generated unprecedented worldwide interest because, among many applications, memristors may be used as super-dense non-volatile memories for building instant turn-on computers. This multi-disciplinary lecture will provide an introduction to memristors along with some historical and philosophical perspectives.

Anschließend laden wir zu einem kleinen Stehempfang.
