  • Abstract
    Memristor has attracted significant attention in recent years because of its capability to act as artificial synapse in neuromorphic systems. In this paper, a memristor is demonstrated based on tantalum oxide. Multiple resistance states can be achieved. The resistance switching mechanism of continuous sets and resets is discussed. The essential synaptic behaviors of potentiation and depression are achieved.
