Abstract

This research explores the development of memristive systems for neuromorphic computing by bridging biological synaptic plasticity with nanoscale device physics. The study investigates transition metal oxides, specifically addressing a stoichiometry paradox in molybdenum oxide devices where fully stoichiometric matrices unexpectedly yield superior resistive switching and high ON/OFF ratios by tightly confining filament percolation. To optimize analog update linearity and suppress stochastic noise, the research leverages space-charge-limited current (SCLC) and quantum mechanical tunneling via polymer interlayers like PMMA. Furthermore, the work evaluates halide perovskites, capitalizing on their unique mixed ionic-electronic transport for neuromorphic sensing. It mitigates inherent environmental and operational degradation through engineered 2D/3D heterojunctions and structural passivation strategies. By integrating theoretical defect chemistry with extensive experimental characterization, this framework advances the scalability and reliability of artificial synapses for next-generation hardware architectures.
