A low-power memristor based on 2H–MoTe2 nanosheets with synaptic plasticity and arithmetic functions

Bionic artificial synapses based on 2D transition metal dichalcogenides are comparable to biological synapses due to the unique properties, which are important for building brain-like computing to break the energy and data throughput limit of the von Neumann architecture. In this work, a two-termina...
