Memristors are passive two terminal circuit elements. Behaves like non linear resistor with memory.
In 2008 a tem at HP labs announced the development of a switching memristor based on a thin film of titanium dioxide.
Resistor is analogous to a pipe that carries water. Water(charge q), input pressure(voltage v), rate of flow of water(current i). In case of resistor, flow of water is faster if pipe is shorter and/or has a larger diameter.
Memristor is analogous to a special kind of pipe that expands or shrinks when water flows through it The pipe is directive in nature.
Initially there are two layers, one slightly depleted of Oxygen atoms, other non-depleted layer.

An atomic force microscope image of a simple circuit with 17 memristors lined up in a row. Each memristor has a bottom wire that contacts one side of the device and a top wire that contacts the opposite side. The devices act as 'memory resistors', with the resistance of each device depending on the amount of charge that has moved through each one. The wires in this image are 50 nm wide, or about 150 atoms in total width.
Provides greater resiliency and reliability when power is interrupted in data centers.
Uses less energy and produces less heat. Would allow for a quicker boot up since information is not lost when the device is turned off.
Could be put in cell phones as monitoring devices to track pollution and other things in the environment.
