New Advances in Memristors:
Design and Applications
Message from the Guest Editor Chips
Advances in memory technology, covering materials,
device structures, and applications, signify a crucial shift
in the landscape of modern computing. Material an Open Access Journal
breakthroughs, including the development of innovative by MDPI
compounds and structures, have paved the way for
next-generation memory devices. Simultaneously,
improvements in memristor device architectures, such
as crossbar arrays and 3D stacking, have expanded
storage capacities and processing speeds. By vertically
integrating multiple memory layers and emulating neural
connections, these architectures optimize spatial
efficiency, enhancing not only storage but also
computation paradigms. These advancements have
wide-ranging applications across industries,
revolutionizing data storage and processing. As
research continues to push the boundaries of
possibilities, the future promises even more

About the Journal
Message from the Editor-in-Chief
Chips is a new journal with the aim to become a leading
reference on all aspects of the IC domain. The journal is
Chips devoted to publishing rigorously peer-reviewed articles
(such as original research, reviews, and
communications) with the specific target to disseminate
novelties in terms of research and knowledge as well as
an Open Access Journal the most advanced state of the art on IC technologies,
by MDPI design, testing, and production. The journal offers the
opportunity to actively spread new concepts and
advancements in the IC domain and its increasing
interrelated and multidisciplinary areas in a
timely manner. More specifically, the journal will cover
chip design, including CAD tools, chip production, and
their wide spectrum of applications.
