Simulating the human brain for neuromorphic computing has attractive prospects in the field of artificial intelligence. Optoelectronic synapses have been considered to be important cornerstones of neuromorphic computing due to their ability to process optoelectronic input signals intelligently. In this work, optoelectronic synapses based on all‐inorganic perovskite nanoplates are fabricated, and the electronic and photonic synaptic plasticity is investigated. Versatile synaptic functions of the nervous system, including paired‐pulse facilitation, short‐term plasticity, long‐term plasticity, transition from short‐ to long‐term memory, and learning‐experience behavior, are successfully emulated. Furthermore, the synapses exhibit a unique memory backtracking function that can extract historical optoelectronic information. This work could be conducive to the development of artificial intelligence and inspire more research on optoelectronic synapses.
Anticounterfeiting
techniques based on physical unclonable functions
exhibit great potential in security protection of extensive commodities
from daily necessities to high-end products. Herein, we propose a
facile strategy to fabricate an unclonable super micro fingerprint
(SMFP) array by introducing in situ grown perovskite crystals for
multilevel anticounterfeiting labels. The unclonable features are
formed on the basis of the differential transportation of a microscale
perovskite precursor droplet during the inkjet printing process, coupled
with random crystallization and Ostwald ripening of perovskite crystals
originating from their ion crystal property. Furthermore, the unclonable
patterns can be readily tailored by tuning in situ crystallization
conditions of the perovskite. Three-dimensional height information
on the perovskite patterns are introduced into a security label and
further transformed into structural color, significantly enhancing
the capacity of anticounterfeiting labels. The SMFPs are characterized
with tunable multilevel anticounterfeiting properties, including macroscale
patterns, microscale unclonable pattern, fluorescent two-dimensional
pattens, and colorful three-dimensional information.
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.
