Abstract
The invention describes a memory device which combines a switchable resistive element and a superconductor element electrically in parallel. The switchable resistive element comprises an active material, which is switchable between first and second values of electrical resistivity ρand ρat the same temperature, wherein ρis different to ρ. The superconductor element is operable so that at least part of the superconductor element is switchable from a superconducting state to a non-superconducting state. When the superconductor element is switched from the superconducting state to the non-superconducting state, a current injection is provided through the switchable resistive element capable of switching the switchable resistive element between said first and second values of electrical resistivity.
