Nanowire-based synaptic devices for neuromorphic computing

Abstract The traditional von Neumann structure computers cannot meet the demands of high-speed big data processing; therefore, neuromorphic computing has received a lot interest in recent years. Brain-inspired advantages low power consumption, high speed and accuracy. In human brains, transmission processing are realized through synapses. Artificial synaptic devices can be adopted to mimic biological functionalities. Nanowire (NW) is an important building block for nanoelectronics optoelectronics, many efforts have been made promote application NW-based computing. Here, we will introduce current progress memristors transistors. applications discussed. challenges faced by proposed. We hope this perspective beneficial systems.
