Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
The combination of artificial neural networks (ANN) and spiking neural networks (SNN) holds great promise for advancing artificial general intelligence (AGI). However, the reported ANN and SNN computational architectures are independent and require a large number of auxiliary circuits and external algorithms for fusion training. Here, a novel vertical bulk heterojunction neuromorphic transistor (VHNT) capable of emulating both ANN and SNN computational functions is presented. TaOx-based electrochemical reactions and PDVT-10/N2200-based bulk heterojunctions are used to realize spike coding and voltage coding, respectively. Notably, the device exhibits remarkable efficiency, consuming a mere 0.84 nJ of energy consumption for a single multiply accumulate (MAC) operation with excellent linearity. Moreover, the device can be switched to spiking neuron and self-activation neuron by simply changing the programming without auxiliary circuits. Finally, the VHNT-based artificial spiking neural network (ASNN) fusion simulation architecture is demonstrated, achieving 95% accuracy for Canadian-Institute-For-Advanced-ResearchResearch-10 (CIFARResearch-10) dataset while significantly enhancing training speed and efficiency. This work proposes a novel device strategy for developing high-performance, low-power, and environmentally adaptive AGI.
