A threshold switching volatile memristor includes a first metal layer, an active layer, a matching metal layer, and a second metal layer. The active layer is on the first metal layer and is made of niobium oxide. The matching metal layer is on the active layer and is made of niobium. The second metal layer is on the matching metal layer, where a thickness ratio of the active layer to the matching metal layer is 2 to 3.5, and a thickness of the matching metal layer is less than 40 nanometers. Within oscillatory circuit, The threshold switching volatile memristor has a negative differential resistance characteristic, and when a current is applied, reverse appears after a voltage reverses reaches a threshold voltage, and a spike signal is measured at an output end. Thus, it is suitable for spike neural networks.
