Despite extensive investigations of a wide variety of artificial synapse devices aimed at realizing a neuromorphic hardware system, the identification of a physical parameter that modulates synaptic plasticity is still required. In this context, a novel two-dimensional architecture consisting of a NbSe2/WSe2/Nb2O5 heterostructure placed on an SiO2/p+ Si substrate was designed to overcome the limitations of the conventional silicon-based complementary metal-oxide semiconductor technology. NbSe2, WSe2, and Nb2O5 were used as the metal electrode, active channel, and conductance-modulating layer, respectively. Interestingly, it was found that the post-synaptic current was successfully modulated by the thickness of the interlayer Nb2O5, with a thicker interlayer inducing a higher synapse spike current and a stronger interaction in the sequential pulse mode. Introduction of the Nb2O5 interlayer can facilitate the realization of reliable and controllable synaptic devices for brain-inspired integrated neuromorphic systems. |
