What is it about?

Hetero-synaptic functions such as associative learning (e.g. Pavlov’s dog experiment) are demonstrated in the rutile TiO2 (titania) single crystal memristor. The device utilizes two-dimensional redistribution of electronic carriers controlled by multi-terminal inputs.

Why is it important?

Diverse and complex synaptic functions such as hetero-synaptic plasticity, STDP or associative learning (e.g. Pavlovian conditioning) are implemented by a single multi-terminal passive element; memristor. The use of single crystal (or amorphous) oxide is the key for the reversible drift motion of dopants (oxygen vacancies) and resistive-change of the device. It can be applied for a novel non-volatile memory (ReRAM) or neuromorphic AI computing device with tunable synaptic plasticity.
