Synaptic κ‐Ga2O3 Photodetectors for Privacy‐Enhancing Neuromorphic Computing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We report on a single‐element neuromorphic sensor based on the persistent photoconductivity (PPC) of κ‐phase Ga2O3 capable of sensing ultraviolet light and harnessing intrinsic data privacy. The approach establishes a materials‐enabled pathway toward compact, intelligent, and privacy‐enhancing optoelectronic hardware for next‐generation edge systems ...
