Synaptic plasticity and preliminary-spike-enhanced plasticity in a CMOS-compatible Ta2O5 memristor
An artificial synapse that can perform both learning and memory functions was realized using an amorphous Ta2O5 memristor. A Pt/Ta2O5/TiN memristor, with an amorphous Ta2O5 film grown at 100 °C, exhibited reliable bipolar switching properties at the ...
