• Memristor is contraction of “memory resistor”. • It stores data by maintaining a particular physical state, or orientation of atoms. • Resistance depends on magnitude and polarity of the voltage applied. SYMBOL OF MEMRISTOR

• It is the fourth passive element. • A type of electrical circuit connects capacitor, resistor, and inductor. • Information storage device. • It remembers how much current has passed through it. • By changing the amount of current, resistance can be changed. 29 SEPT 2009

There are four fundamental circuit variables: electric current, voltage, charge, and magnetic flux. For these variables, we have resistors to relate current to voltage, capacitors to relate voltage to charge, and inductors to relate current to magnetic flux. 1.
q = ∫ idt
2.
ϕ = ∫ εdt
3.
R = dv / di
4.
C = dq / dv
5.
L = dφ / di
6.
M = dφ / dq
Memristor = memory resistor 29 SEPT 2009

Each memristor is characterized by its memristance function describing the charge-dependent rate of change of flux with charge
dφm M (q ) = dq
From faraday's law of induction dφm / dt v (t ) M (q (t )) =
dq / dt
=
I (t )
If M(q(t)) is a constant, then we obtain OHM'S LAW R(t) = V(t)/ I(t). 29 SEPT 2009

Solving for voltage as a function of time V (t ) = M (q (t )) I (t )
The power consumption characteristic P(t ) = V (t ) I (t ) = I 2 (t ) M (q(t ))

As with a pipe example
A resistor is like a pipe whose diameter is constant and limits the water flow through it accordingly.
29 SEPT 2009
10
A memristor is like a pipe which has the property that if water flows through it in one direction the diameter shrinks and if it flows in the other direction it expands and once water stops flowing through it, it remains the same size until water starts flowing again.

Spintronics is the use of electron spin to store information. Its all about the spin and charge of electron communicating with each other. Electrons can spin in two ways up or down * each spin has different energy * magnetic field affects the spins

Concept of Memristor by Leon Chua that was made practical by Stan Williams (HP Labs) is a breakthrough in the field of electronics The current research work in HP labs shows that ―It will enable very small,i.e. nanoscale devices to be made without generating all the excess heat that scaling down transistors is causing today and thus makes chips cheaper ―It will eliminate RAM from computers ―Eliminate rebooting function from computers 29 SEPT 2009
