'Frontiers in electronic materials: correlation effects and memristive phenomena', Aachen, Germany
4 October 2012 - 4 October 2012
Germany
An event entitled 'Frontiers in electronic materials: correlation effects and memristive phenomena' will take place from 4 to 7 October 2012 in Aachen, Germany.
A memristor is a passive, two-terminal electrical component designed to be a non-linear circuit element relating charge and magnetic flux linkage. Scientists have been able to show that various materials such as metal oxides, chalcogenides, amorphous silicon, carbon, and polymer-nanoparticle composite materials exhibit memristive phenomena.
A multitude of unusual electronic phenomena have emerged in recent years. These occur in oxides and higher chalcogenides and are a hot topic in the solid-state research community. The phenomena include strong electron correlation, multiferroicity, spintronic effects, topologically protected electron states, as well as unexpected effects at complex heterointerfaces.
The conference will bring together scientific leaders in these interdisciplinary fields to discuss breakthroughs and challenges in fundamental research, as well as prospects for future applications.For further information, please visit: http://www.nature.com/natureconferences/fem2012/index.html(opens in new window)
