Self-Rectifying Memristors for Three-Dimensional In-Memory Computing.

Costly data movement in terms of time and energy in traditional von Neumann systems is exacerbated by emerging information technologies related to artificial intelligence. In-memory computing (IMC) architecture aims to address this problem. Although the IMC hardware prototype represented by a memristor is developed rapidly and performs well, the sneak path issue is a critical and unavoidable challenge prevalent in large-scale and high-density crossbar arrays, particularly in three-dimensional (3D) integration.
