Description
In this talk I shall introduce some basic notions of electronic neuromorphic
functionalities of materials and devices.
I shall first briefly describe our efforts towards implementing artificial neurons
exploiting the electric Mott transition. Then, I shall describe in more detail
our recent work implementing a new silicon-based memristive neuron. This
artificial spiking neuron is extremely simple as it exploits an overlooked
memristive feature of a “forgotten” conventional electronic device, the thyristor.
The main features of the memristive silicon neuron circuit are that it provides
a simple and physical spiking neuron model that can be associated
as LEGO blocks to build spiking neural networks that are relevant to Neuroscience,
which we are beginning to explore.
