Abstract Neuromorphic computing is a promising strategy to overcome fundamental limitations, such as enormous power consumption, by massive parallel data processing, similar to the brain. Here we demonstrate a proof-of-principle implementation of the weighted spin torque nano-oscillator (WSTNO) as a programmable building block for the next-generation neuromorphic computing systems (NCS). The WSTNO is a spintronic circuit composed of two spintronic devices made of magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs): non-volatile magnetic memories acting as synapses and non-linear spin torque nano-oscillator (STNO) acting as a neuron. The non-linear output based on the weighted sum of the inputs is demonstrated using three MTJs. The STNO shows an output power above 3 µW and frequencies of 240 MHz. Both MTJ types are fabricated from a multifunctional MTJ stack in a single fabrication process, which reduces the footprint, is compatible with monolithic integration on top of CMOS technology and paves ways to fabricate more complex neuromorphic computing systems. |
