Thickness‐Defined Transport Regime Toward Near‐Ideal Area‐Type Switching

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
By thinning the oxide layer, memristors pass from diode‐like and battery‐effect‐dominated behavior toward eventual short‐circuit failure. Within the intermediate 5–6 nm window, they reach a near‐ideal analog area‐type switching regime, featuring symmetric hysteresis, area‐dependent conductance, and continuous linear programming of HRS and LRS with ...

SCIENCE, RELIGION, AND ETHICS: THE BOYLE LECTURE 2019

open access: yesZygon, 2019
How do we and should we decide what is morally right and what is morally wrong? For much of human history, the teachings of religion were presumed to provide either the answer, or much of the answer. Over time, two developments challenged this.

Someone it is Good to Argue With

open access: yesInformal Logic
This paper discusses virtuous audiences in argumentation, asking “what does the virtuous audience look like”, and “how could they contribute to a fully satisfying argument”? We first propose to conceive the role of audience in a moderate way, as someone

Virtue Theory and Abortion

open access: yes, 1991
The sort of ethical theory derived from Aristotle, variously described as virtue ethics, virtue-based ethics, or neo-Aristotelianism, is becoming better known, and is now quite widely recognized as at least a possible rival to deontological and ...

Why Mary Astell's Theory of Virtue is Not Inconsistent

open access: yesLocke Studies
There is an apparent inconsistency at the heart of Mary Astell’s theory of virtue, for she seems committed to contradictory propositions: (1) that virtue involves alignment of all passions with their proper objects; and (2) that virtue involves the ...
