As you'll recall, Stan and his team in the Information and Quantum Systems Lab solved the decades-old mystery of the memristor, or memory resistor, proving its existence as the fourth basic element of an integrated circuit.
The researchers, Stan says, are already building circuits with this device, which could make it possible to develop nonvolatile RAM and synaptic circuits.
Stan explains this a lot better than I do. The NPR podcast is about 14 minutes.
