Artificial synaptic devices are the basic composition units for neuromorphic computing processors that realize massive parallel computing. However, the n-type organic transistors have failed to achieve good performance as an artificial synaptic device for neuromorphic computing until now. Here, a vertical three-terminal n-type organic artificial synapse (TNOAS) using a lithium ion-based organic dielectric and the n-type donor-acceptor (D-A) conjugated polymer-naphthalene-1,4,5,8-tetracarboxylic-diimide-thiophene-vinyl-thiophene (NDI-gTVT) as the channel is proposed. The TNOAS achieves nonvolatile conductance modulation with high current density operation (≈10 KA cm −2 ) at low voltage and mimics the basic functions of biological synapses, such as long-term synaptic plasticity and paired-pulse facilitation. The minimum energy consumption of a response event triggered by a single action potential is 6.16 pJ, which can be comparable with p-type counterparts. Moreover, simulation using handwritten digital datasets exhibit a high recognition accuracy of 94%.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
