Quantum memristor

A quantum memristor is a nanoscale device that exhibits memristive behavior governed by quantum mechanics. First theorized in 2016,[1] it represents the quantum analogue of the classical memristor (memory resistor) proposed by Leon Chua in 1971. Unlike classical memristors whose resistance depends on the history of classical charge flow, quantum memristors exhibit non-Markovian dynamics where resistance emerges from quantum state evolution, enabling applications in quantum neuromorphic computing and quantum memory.[2]

Several types of quantum memristor have been proposed.[3][4][5] It has been proposed that photonic quantum memristors can be used for nonlinear quantum computing.[6]
