Abstract
- [Display omitted] The growth of data and Internet of Things challenges traditional hardware, which encounters efficiency and power issues owing to separate functional units for sensors, memory, and computation. In this study, we designed an α-phase indium selenide (α-In 2 Se 3) transistor, which is a two-dimensional ferroelectric semiconductor as the channel material, to create artificial optic-neural and electro-neural synapses, enabling cutting-edge processing-in-sensor (PIS) and computing-in-memory (CIM) functionalities. As an optic-neural synapse for low-level sensory processing, the α-In 2 Se 3 transistor exhibits a high photoresponsivity (2855 A/W) and detectivity (2.91 × 1014 Jones), facilitating efficient feature extraction. For high-level processing tasks as an electro-neural synapse, it offers a fast program/erase speed of 40 ns/50 µs and ultralow energy consumption of 0.37 aJ/spike. An AI vision system using α-In 2 Se 3 transistors has been demonstrated. It achieved an impressive recognition accuracy of 92.63% within 12 epochs owing to the synergistic combination of the PIS and CIM functionalities. This study demonstrates the potential of the α-In 2 Se 3 transistor in future vision hardware, enhancing processing, power efficiency, and AI applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
