Discovery of the memristor - postulated 37 years ago by Leon Chua

[Denis Burchill]

Hi all,

Have you come across the article on the memristor at http://www.spectrum.ieee.org/may08/6207

This looks pretty fundamental and will have far reaching effects in technology. It's new material for our Year 13 physics (and textbooks). 

Who's going to decide on its symbol and the name of its unit of measurement?

Cheers,
Denis.
