Gradient Oxygen Modulation for Junctionless Electric-Double-Layer IZO-based Synaptic Transistors
Junctionless electric-double layer (EDL) transistors with gradient oxygen modulated IZO layers are proposed to emulate the biological synapse. The threshold voltage of the junctionless EDL transistors is shifted from - 0.40 V to 0.48 V as increasing the oxygen partial pressure during IZO deposition. And the estimated energy consumption of an individual excitatory post-synaptic current (EPSC) synaptic process can be reduced when the threshold voltage of the junctionless IZO EDL synaptic transistors are shifted positively. Short-term plasticity (STP) and long-term potentiation (LTP) is also demonstrated in such junctionless IZO-based EDL synaptic transistor
Classical Conditioning Mimicked in Junctionless IZO Electric-Double-Layer Thin-Film Transistors
Classical conditioning, a fundamental property in associative learning, has aroused a wide range of interests in neuromorphic engineering. Here, junctionless indium-zinc-oxide (IZO)-based electric-double-layer transistors gated by nanogranular SiO2 proton conducting electrolyte films are proposed to mimic such behavior. Proton-related electrochemical doping can result in evident oxygen vacancy in IZO channel layer, which is demonstrated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements. After such electrochemical forming in half part of the IZO channel, conditioning response can be observed by gate-pulse training process

Laterally Coupled Synaptic Transistors Gated by Proton Conducting Sodium Alginate Films
Electronic implementation of biological synapses with essential plasticity and computing functions has been paid world-wide attentions. Here, laterally coupled indium-zinc oxide (IZO)-based synaptic transistors gated by solution-processed sodium alginate proton conducting electrolyte films are fabricated at room temperature. Synaptic behaviors and functions, including paired-pulse facilitation, high-pass filtering, and dendritic integration, are experimentally mimicked. Proton lateral migration-induced electric-double-layer electrostatic modulation is of great importance for such emulation. Such IZO-based synaptic transistors provide an interesting approach for synaptic electronics and neuromorphic systems

Low-voltage protonic/electronic hybrid indium zinc oxide synaptic transistors on paper substrates
Low-voltage (1.5 V) indium zinc oxide (IZO)-based electric-double-layer (EDL) thin-film transistors (TFTs) gated by nanogranular proton conducting SiO2 electrolyte films are fabricated on paper substrates. Both enhancement-mode and depletion-mode operation are obtained by tuning the thickness of the IZO channel layer. Furthermore, such flexible IZO protonic/electronic hybrid EDL TFTs can be used as artificial synapses, and synaptic stimulation response and short-term synaptic plasticity function are demonstrated. The protonic/electronic hybrid EDL TFTs on paper substrates proposed here are promising for low-power flexible paper electronics, artificial synapses and bioelectronics
