Abstract

Nanodevices based on resistive switching structures are currently being explored as potential candidates to mimic biological synapses in neuromorphic systems due to the analog control of the device resistance, their scaling capability, and their low power operation. In this chapter, the electronic properties and the conductance modulation capability of HfO2-based memristors will be presented, and their potential to emulate the synaptic functionality in biological-inspired neuromorphic networks will be discussed. In addition, the stability and reliability issues that may limit the performance of resistive synaptic devices will be discussed. Finally, physical simulations at different complexity levels will be presented providing a deeper insight into the key transport mechanisms involved in the resistive switching phenomenon.
