Novel intelligent devices: Two-dimensional materials based memristors

Abstract

Two-dimensional (2D) materials with atomic thickness, non-volatile resistive switching feature and compatibility with the semiconducting technology are naturally a good media of memristors. 2D materials-based memristors with excellent performance, low-power consumption and high integration density can be integrated with other circuit components to implement the complicate logic computing, which will become a key driving force for the development of artificial intelligence.
