Prof. Dr. Regina Dittmann is the Director of the Electronic Materials division (PGI-7) at the Peter Grünberg Institute (PGI), part of the Research Center Jülich. Her research focuses on memristive systems, resistive switching phenomena, and neuromorphic computing architectures. She leads a team exploring novel oxide materials and their applications in advanced electronics, including memristive heterostructures, nanoelectronics, and energy-efficient computing systems. Her work integrates materials science, device physics, and computational modeling to develop next-generation memory and neuromorphic hardware. Key research areas include the design and characterization of memristive devices, understanding ion migration in perovskite materials, and optimizing thermal and electronic stability in nanoscale systems. Recent studies emphasize the role of space charge effects in metal exsolution, the development of fault-tolerant neuromorphic architectures, and the application of synchrotron-based techniques for in-situ material analysis. Her contributions have advanced the theoretical and practical foundations of resistive switching mechanisms and their implementation in energy-efficient computing systems.
