研究目的
To validate the state-of-the-art bistable RRAM and to introduce small-area building blocks serving as artificial synapses in neuromorphic circuits.
研究成果
The results support the use of bistable RRAM for high-performance artificial synapses in neuromorphic circuits, capable of learning, updating, and recognizing real-world visual and auditory patterns. The study demonstrates the potential of RRAM-based synaptic networks for unsupervised pattern learning via STDP.
研究不足
The abrupt set/reset processes in the RRAM device cause bistable STDP, contrasting with the gradual weight tuning believed to occur in biological STDP. The study explores stochastic switching to mimic gradual switching in bistable synapses.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study employs a one-transistor/one-resistor (1T1R) structure with a HfO2 RRAM as the resistive element. The spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP) is characterized in both deterministic and stochastic regimes.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
RRAM devices consist of a Si-doped HfO2 layer with TiN bottom electrode and Ti top electrode.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
An arbitrary waveform generator and an oscilloscope were used for pulsed experiments.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The STDP behavior was demonstrated by applying specific voltage pulses to the RRAM device and monitoring the resistance changes.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The STDP characteristics were modeled using a Simulink circuit model to simulate the 1T1R device behavior.
