A bi-functional three-terminal memristor applicable as an artificial synapse and neuron.
Nanoscale(2023)
摘要
Due to their significant resemblance to the biological brain, spiking neural networks (SNNs) show promise in handling spatiotemporal information with high time and energy efficiency. Two-terminal memristors have the capability to achieve both synaptic and neuronal functions; however, such memristors face asynchronous programming/reading operation issues. Here, a three-terminal memristor (3TM) based on oxygen ion migration is developed to function as both a synapse and a neuron. We demonstrate short-term plasticity such as pair-pulse facilitation and high-pass dynamic filtering in our devices. Additionally, a 'learning-forgetting-relearning' behavior is successfully mimicked, with lower power required for the relearning process than the first learning. Furthermore, by leveraging the short-term dynamics, the leaky-integrate-and-fire neuronal model is emulated by the 3TM without adopting an external capacitor to obtain the leakage property. The proposed bi-functional 3TM offers more process compatibility for integrating synaptic and neuronal components in the hardware implementation of an SNN.
