Abstract
En 中文
Recently, three-terminal synaptic devices, which separate read and write terminals, have attracted significant attention because they enable nondestructive read-out and parallel-access for updating synaptic weights. However, owing to their structural features, it is difficult to address the relatively high device density compared with two-terminal synaptic devices. In this study, a vertical synaptic device featuring remotely controllable weight updates via e-field-dependent movement of mobile ions in the ion-gel layer is developed. This synaptic device successfully demonstrates all essential synaptic characteristics, such as excitatory/inhibitory postsynaptic current (E/IPSC), paired-pulse facilitation (PPF), and long-term potentiation/depression (LTP/D) by electrical measurements, and exhibits competitive LTP/D characteristics with a dynamic range (G(max)/G(min)) of 31.3, and asymmetry (AS) of 8.56. The stability of the LTP/D characteristics is also verified through repeated measurements over 50 cycles; the relative standard deviations (RSDs) of G(max)/G(min) and AS are calculated as 1.65% and 0.25%, respectively. These excellent synaptic properties enable a recognition rate of approximate to 99% in the training and inference tasks for acoustic and emotional information patterns. This study is expected to be an important foundation for the realization of future parallel computing networks for energy-efficient and high-speed data processing.
