Abstract:
Molecule‐based devices are envisioned to complement silicon devices by providing new functions or by implementing existing functions at a simpler process level and lower cost, by virtue of their self‐organization capabilities. Moreover, they are not bound to von Neuman architecture and this feature may open the way to other architectural paradigms. Neuromorphic electronics is one of them. Here, a device made of molecules and nanoparticles—a nanoparticle organic memory field‐effect transistor (NOMFET)—that exhibits the main behavior of a biological spiking synapse is demonstrated. Facilitating and depressing synaptic behaviors can be reproduced by the NOMFET and can be programmed. The synaptic plasticity for real‐time computing is evidenced and described by a simple model. These results open the way to rate‐coding utilization of the NOMFET in dynamical neuromorphic computing circuits.
