Memristors and Memristive Circuits and Devices: From Modeling to Design

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue (SI) aims to bring together innovative research and achievements in the field of memristors and memristive circuits and devices. Since some types of memristors contain non-volatile memory elements and due to their exceptional memory and switching properties, low-power consumption, and nano-size dimensions, they are attracting significant attention in areas such as neuromorphic computing, data storage, signal generation and processing, logic gates and circuits, and reconfigurable circuits. Their unique ability to retain information without power, combined with their capacity for analog processing, makes them an important technology for future electronic applications.

This SI seeks papers covering areas ranging from theoretical modeling to practical design and real-world applications of memristors and memristive devices, thereby highlighting new ideas and achievements in this rapidly developing field. We encourage submissions that explore innovative methods for understanding and utilizing memristive technology. The papers may cover a variety of topics, including theoretical developments, modeling and simulation studies, experimental results, case studies, and interdisciplinary perspectives.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Mathematical models representing memristive behavior, techniques for simulating memristive circuits, and hybrid models integrating memristors with other electronic components. 
• Мemristor fabrication techniques, new materials for memristor devices, and design strategies aimed at optimizing performance and scalability. 
• The use of memristors in neuromorphic computing and artificial intelligence, their integration into next-generation memory architectures, and case studies demonstrating practical applications in various industries.

By assembling a diverse range of topics, this SI aims to foster collaboration and stimulate innovation within the field of memristors and memristive devices. We are committed to supporting the future development of this exciting technology and invite researchers to contribute their expertise, thus paving the way for new applications and achievements.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Technologies is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1800 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
