Abstract
Emulation of biological signal processing, learning and memory functions is essential for the development of artificial learning circuitry. Two terminal artificial synapses are supposed to be more feasible with biological system in terms of energy efficiency and processing. Here, we report on the fabrication of organic–inorganic hybrid perovskite based two-terminal artificial synapse in which the synaptic plasticity is modified by both voltage pulses and light illumination. The device emulates important synaptic characteristics, including analog memory switching, short-term plasticity, and long-term plasticity, analogous to the biological system. The change in conductance is attributed to the ion migration under external electric field. In addition, the improved post-synaptic current in optical exposer could be related to the generation of excitons and lowered Schottky barrier at perovskite/electrode interface under external electric field.
