The negative differential resistance is exploited, using a La0.67Sr0.33MnO3 thin film network to demonstrate various neuronal functionalities of the human brain, such as leaky‐integrate‐fire and oscillatory patterns. Transmission electron microscope studies show local modification in oxygen octahedra in the network leads to co‐existing phases ...

A key event in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the production of amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides and the loss of synapses. In cultured neurons Aβ triggered synapse damage as measured by the loss of synaptic proteins. α-synuclein (αSN), aggregates of which accumulate

ABSTRACT‘Typically’ chemical synaptic transmission takes place when an influx of calcium ions during a presynaptic nerve impulse triggers exocytosis of neurotransmitter substance from synaptic vesicles. The neurotransmitter diffuses across the synaptic cleft and occupies receptors embedded in the subsynaptic membrane.

Tin‐Based 2D/3D Perovskite Vertical Heterojunction for High‐Performance Synaptic Phototransistors
Phototransistors based on tin‐based 2D/3D perovskite heterostructures show an ultrahigh responsivity and detectivity at a low gate voltage across a broad wavelength region from ultraviolet to near‐infrared. The devices can replicate neuromorphic learning and remembering behaviors to light stimuli, in addition to electric depression and memory erasure ...

Metaplasticity in Multistate Memristor Synaptic Networks [PDF]
Recent studies have shown that metaplastic synapses can retain information longer than simple binary synapses and are beneficial for continual learning. In this paper, we explore the multistate metaplastic synapse characteristics in the context of high retention and reception of information.

The strength of many synapses is modified by various use and time-dependent processes, including facilitation and depression. A general description of synaptic transfer characteristics must account for the history-dependence of synaptic efficacy and should be able to predict the postsynaptic response to any temporal pattern of presynaptic activity.

Tunable Tactile Synapses Enabled by Erasable Doping in Iongel‐Gated Nanotube Network Transistors
Artificial tactile synaptic sensors are realized by an iongel‐gated single‐walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) transistor with reversible doping characteristics. The device senses and memorizes tactile stimuli and exhibits gate bias‐dependent excitatory or inhibitory synaptic behavior.

Shannon Information Capacity of Discrete Synapses [PDF]
There is evidence that biological synapses have only a fixed number of discrete weight states. Memory storage with such synapses behaves quite differently from synapses with unbounded, continuous weights as old memories are automatically overwritten by new memories.

Using noise to probe recurrent neural network structure and prune synapses [PDF]
Many networks in the brain are sparsely connected, and the brain eliminates synapses during development and learning. How could the brain decide which synapses to prune? In a recurrent network, determining the importance of a synapse between two neurons is a difficult computational problem, depending on the role that both neurons play and on all ...
