In line with my interests, a group of researchers demonstrated the first quantum memristor recently. This may be a critical step in bringing a type of highly efficient neural network to the world ...

Researchers in China have adapted the interlocking structure of mortise-and-tenon joints – as used by woodworkers around the ...

At least two or three times a week, we get a press release about some fundamental breakthrough in nanotechnology, silicon engineering, wireless or similar. Normally, the story is rather less ...

While some of that uses traditional silicon-based transistors, other efforts have explored a relatively newer development, the memristor. Now, an international collaboration that includes ...

Known as a quantum memristor, the device could be used to fabricate quantum versions of so-called neuromorphic architectures that mimic the structure of the human brain. The memory-resistor, or ...

The new component is called a memristor, or memory resistor. Up until today, the circuit element had only been described in a series of mathematical equations written by Leon Chua, who in 1971 was ...

Andy Thomas constructed a memristor that is capable of learning. Andy and Bielefeld University researchers are now using his memristors as key components in a blueprint for an artificial brain.

The team at HP Labs responsible for building the world’s first memristor in 2008 have discovered their creation has more capabilities than was previously thought. In addition to retaining a ...

Chua dubbed it the “memristor”. The only problem was that as far as Chua or anyone else could see, memristors did not actually exist. Except that they do. Within the past couple of years ...
