Abstract
Memcapacitor is a new type of circiut element which can
be useful in a wide range of applications including
memory, tunable analog circuits, and analog neural
networks. It can be realized as a micro- or nanoscale
solid-state device, possibly implemented within (or
post-processed on top of) a CMOS chip. The approach based
on combination of a memristor and a typical MIM capacitor
is promising as it can benefit from the fabrication
techniques being developed and used for memristors. These
techniques are rapidly maturing, enabling large capacity
resistive memory (ReRAM) chips. However, the
memristor-based memcapacitors will require more complex
techniques for their programming than memristors, because
their impedance is frequency dependent and the parasitics
induced by direct access to the middle electrode may
potentially disable some applications
