Publisher's Synopsis
This book, first published in 2007 and the second in a series from MRS, focuses on the scientific and technological exploration of materials and devices with nonvolatile memory properties. Strong and increasing interest in nonvolatile memories, both domestic and international, indicates the worldwide importance of these materials and memory devices. The papers in this volume represent the latest technical advancements and information on nonvolatile memory devices from universities, national laboratories and industry. They also provide insight into emerging trends. Research results are presented for: polymer and molecular nonvolatile memory devices; flash nonvolatile memory devices; nanoparticle nonvolatile memory devices; resistance switching nonvolatile memory devices; ferroelectric nonvolatile memory devices; phase-change nonvolatile memory devices; and magnetic nonvolatile memory devices and others.
