Recent advances in fabrication and functions of neuromorphic system based on organic field effect transistor

Abstract

The development of various artificial electronics and machines would explosive increase the information and data, which need to be processed in-situ remediation. Bioinspired synapse devices can store and process signals in a parallel way, then improve fault tolerance and decrease the power consumption of artificial systems. The organic field effect transistor (OFET) is a promising component for bioinspired neuromorphic systems because it is suitable for large-scale integrated circuits and flexible devices. In this review, the organic semiconductor materials, structures and fabrication, and different artificial sensory perception systems functions based on micro-sized neuromorphic OFET devices are summarized. Finally, a summary and challenges of neuromorphic OFET devices are provided. This review presents a detailed introduction to the recent progress of neuromorphic OFET devices from semiconductor materials to perception systems, which would provide a reference for the achievement of neuromorphic systems in future bioinspired electronics.

Stretchable and stable neuromorphic tactile system

“…1–6 Inspired by the human brain, neuromorphic computing has received increasing attention to overcome the bottleneck of the traditional Von Neumann architecture and improve the energy efficiency of artificial intelligence computing. 7–18 As the foundation of neuromorphic computing, artificial neurons play an essential role in implementing the computation. 19–23 An artificial neuron consists of multiple inputs and one output.…”

Preparation of P3HT/PC61BM/ZnO organic-inorganic composite planar heterojunction photodetectors

“…Organic semiconductor materials have been widely studied for their advantages such as easy solution processing and tunable bandgap [9][10]. P3HT has high hole mobility and is often used as a donor material; PC61BM is a fullerene derivative with high electron mobility and is often used as an acceptor material.…”
