Abstract
Ionic memristors can emulate brain-like functions of biological synapses for neuromorphic technologies. Apart from the widely studied excitatory-excitatory and excitatory-inhibitory synapses, reports on memristors with the inhibitory-inhibitory synaptic behaviors remain a challenge. Here, the first biaxially inhibited artificial synapse is demonstrated, consisting of a solid electrolyte and conjugated microporous polymers bilayer as neurotransmitter, with the former serving as an ion reservoir and the latter acting as a confined transport. Due to the migration, trapping, and de-trapping of ions within the nanoslits, the device poses inhibitory synaptic plasticity under both positive and negative stimuli. Remarkably, the artificial synapse is able to maintain a low level of stable nonvolatile memory over a long period of time (≈60min) after multiple stimuli, with feature-inferencing/-training capabilities of neural node in neuromorphic computing. This work paves a reliable strategy for constructing nanochannel ionic memristive materials toward fully inhibitory synaptic devices.
