Flexible neuromorphic transistors for neuromorphic computing and perception application

Abstract

Emulating brain functionality with neuromorphic devices is an emerging field of research. It is extensively considered as the first step to overcome the limitations of conventional von Neumann systems and build artificial intelligent systems. Currently, most neuromorphic transistors are manufactured on rigid substrates, which are difficult to bend and cannot closely fit soft human skin, limiting their appliction scope. The emergence and evolution of flexible electronic devices address a plethora of application and scenario demands. Particularly, the introduction of flexible neuromorphic transistors injects fresh vitality into neuromorphic computing and perception, symbolizing a significant step towards overcoming the limitations of conventional computational models and fostering the development of more intelligent wearable devices. Herein, the recent developments in felxible neuromorphic transistors are summarized and their applications in neuromorphic computing and artificial perception systems are highlighted. The future prospects and challenges of felxible neuromorphic transistors are also discussed. We believe developments in felxible neuromorphic transistors will shed light on future advances in wearable artificial intelligent systems, humanoid robotics and neural repair technology.
