Flexible Ta2O5/WO3-based memristor synapse for wearable and neuromorphic applications
In this letter, Ta 2 O 5 /WO 3 double-layer wearable memristor synapse has excellent recognition accuracy (97%) for just 12 epochs compared to the single-layer device (83%). The insertion of an ultra-thin WO 3 layer modulates the oxygen vacancy distribution in Ta 2 O 5 and induces digital-to-analog switching behavior. Excellent AC endurance of (>10 9 cycles) under 2 mm extreme bending, a rapid speed (25 ns), reliable bending endurance for 10 4 cycles with 4 mm bending, stable retention (>10 6 s) up to 200°C, and water-resistant behavior are achieved. The potentiation, and depression having outstanding nonlinearity (0.64) is obtained. The Ta 2 O 5 /WO 3 design is a promising candidate for wearable neuromorphic applications due to its wearability, flexibility, lightweight, low cost and environmental friendly fabrication.

Abstract

In this letter, Ta 2 O 5 /WO 3 double-layer wearable memristor synapse has excellent recognition accuracy (97%) for just 12 epochs compared to the single-layer device (83%). The insertion of an ultra-thin WO 3 layer modulates the oxygen vacancy distribution in Ta 2 O 5 and induces digital-to-analog switching behavior. Excellent AC endurance of (>10 9 cycles) under 2 mm extreme bending, a rapid speed (25 ns), reliable bending endurance for 10 4 cycles with 4 mm bending, stable retention (>10 6 s) up to 200°C, and water-resistant behavior are achieved. The potentiation, and depression having outstanding nonlinearity (0.64) is obtained. The Ta 2 O 5 /WO 3 design is a promising candidate for wearable neuromorphic applications due to its wearability, flexibility, lightweight, low cost and environmental friendly fabrication.
