A memory array includes a plurality of memory cells, each of which
receives a bit line, a first word line, and a second word line. Each
memory cell includes a cell selection circuit, which allows the memory
cell to be selected. Each memory cell also includes a two-terminal
switching device, which includes first and second conductive terminals in
electrical communication with a nanotube article. The memory array also
includes a memory operation circuit, which is operably coupled to the bit
line, the first word line, and the second word line of each cell. The
circuit can select the cell by activating an appropriate line, and can
apply appropriate electrical stimuli to an appropriate line to
reprogrammably change the relative resistance of the nanotube article
between the first and second terminals. The relative resistance
corresponds to an informational state of the memory cell.
