MEMRISTOR OSCILLATORS

The memristor has attracted phenomenal worldwide attention since its debut on 1 May 2008 issue of Nature in view of its many potential applications, e.g. super-dense nonvolatile computer memory and neural synapses. The Hewlett–Packard memristor is a passive nonlinear two-terminal circuit element that maintains a functional relationship between the time integrals of current and voltage, respectively, viz. charge and flux. In this paper, we derive several nonlinear oscillators from Chua's oscillators by replacing Chua's diodes with memristors.
