Aqueous solution processed mesoporous silica-gated photo-perception neuromorphic transistor
Our body is a multiple perception learning system. Bionic application of perception cognitive functions based on neuromorphic electronics would endow artificial intelligence new intension. In particular, electrolyte-gated transistors have been suggested for neuromorphic platform applications. Due to the fundamental limitations for ionic liquid and ionic gel-based electrolyte, it would be interesting to obtain solid-state electrolytes through a vacuum free system. Thus, in the present work, a simple aqueous solution-processed mesoporous silica coating-gated oxide photo-perception neuromorphic transistors have been proposed. The neuromorphic transistors exhibit good electrical performances. A resistor-loaded inverter is built, exhibiting typical inverter operation at low working voltage. 'Selective potentiation and depression' behaviors have been mimicked on the neuromorphic transistor. In addition, the proposed neuromorphic transistor shows optical and electrical synergic response behaviors. Neurological behavior of conditioned taste aversion learning has been mimicked. Thus, the single photo-perception neuromorphic transistor could integrate the functions of perception and neuromorphic algorithm. The proposed photo-perception neuromorphic transistors could have potentials in artificial perception learning systems.
