CORRELATED OXIDES FOR NEUROMORPHIC COMPUTING

Neuromorphic computing, which mimics the architecture and components of biological neural networks, is an emerging technology which might overcome some of the challenges that traditional computing is facing. A neuromorphic computer is composed of two basic elements: neurons and synapses.
I will show how resistive switching can be used to mimic the functionalities of these two elements, focusing on volatile switching caused by the voltage-triggered insulator to metal transition in VO₂ and V₂O₃. I will discuss several aspects of this transition, such as the underlying mechanism, the dynamics and its spatial distribution. I will also show some of our recent efforts towards emulating neuronal behaviour using this phenomenology.
