Abstract

Neuromorphic electronics has received considerable attention recent years, and its basic functional units are synaptic electronic devices. A two-terminal artificial synapse with sandwiched structure emulates plasticity of the biological synapses under the action of nerve-like electrical impulse signals. In this paper, <i>P</i>3 phase Na<sub>2/3</sub>Ni<sub>1/3</sub>Mn<sub>2/3</sub>O<sub>2</sub> multi-element metal oxides with layered structure are synthesized by sol-gel process. Owing to the fact that Na<sup>+</sup> is easy to embed/eject into its crystal structure, an ion-migrating artificial synapse based on Na<sub>2/3</sub>Ni<sub>1/3</sub>Mn<sub>2/3</sub>O<sub>2</sub> is designed and fabricated. The device emulates important synaptic plasticity, such as excitatory postsynaptic current, paired-pulse facilitation, spike-number dependent plasticity, spike-frequency dependent plasticity, spike-voltage amplitude dependent plasticity and spike-duration dependent plasticity. The device realizes the identification and response to Morse code commands.
