Memristors in History

Memristors: They’ve been here all along! In the upcoming June issue of Nature, Leon Chua, Themistoklis Prodromakis, and Christofer Toumazou have written commentary on Memristors in history, titled: “Two Centuries of Memristors” [commentary abstract]. The commentary looks back at 200 years of materials and research to show evidence of memristive states as an observable phenomena [...]
