Memristive devices have been explored as electronic synaptic to mimic biological synapses for developing hardware-based neuromorphic computing systems. However, typical oxide memristive suffered from abrupt switching between high and low resistance states, which limits access achieve various conductance states analog devices.

Artificial synaptic devices have been extensively investigated for neuromorphic computing systems, which require behaviors mimicking the biological ones. In particular, a highly linear and symmetric weight update with conductance (or resistance) change potentiation depression operation is one of essential requirements energy-efficient computing; however, it not sufficiently met. this study, memristor Pt/p-LiCoO
Scaling down the charge-trap memory cell for high storage density causes severe reliability issues such as decreased trapped charge density, migration of stored charges to adjacent cells, electrostatic interference between neighboring and gate dielectric breakdown.

Abstract Tunable multilevel gate oxide capacitance and flat‐band voltage shift characteristics in double‐floating‐gate metal–oxide–semiconductor (DFG‐MOS) capacitors are investigated for non‐volatile memory programmable logic device applications. The DFG‐MOS capacitor with the structure of Ag(control gate)/CeO 2 (upper control oxide)/Al(upper FG)/CeO (lower oxide)/Pt(lower FG)/HfO (tunneling oxide) on n‐Si substrate, that is Ag/CeO /Al/CeO /Pt/HfO /n‐Si, exhibits three states as a result...
