Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of artificial synapses, and particularly relates to an electrolyte synapse transistor and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
For the last 50 years, transistor dimensions and process innovations have followed moore's law, which is the gold law developed by the integrated circuit industry. In order to improve the performance of the device, a great deal of innovation has been made on the semiconductor process, such as strained silicon, high-K gate dielectric, metal gate, three-terminal field effect transistor structure, etc. These methods of constructing devices are very complex processes. When the size of the device is less than 100nm or less, a large increase in power consumption is caused due to a short channel effect. In order to overcome the problems of failure of Moore's law, large-scale integration and manufacturing cost, the innovation of the device manufacturing process and the integration technology is more and more emphasized by people, and becomes an important front edge of the microelectronic field in the post Moore's era. The lines of development of microelectronic device technology were redefined after 2016. In addition, cmos devices are listed as a key research and development area in the international semiconductor roadmap. Based on the route, by exploring new electronic materials and new devices based on working principles, ultrahigh performance and ultralow power consumption can be realized.
The traditional computer is an integrated circuit taking a Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET) as a core device, lays a foundation for the modern information society, and proves technical innovation in various fields. However, given the physical separation of memory and Central Processing Units (CPUs) structurally, traditional computers present significant challenges in the processing of large amounts of data, known as the "von neumann" bottleneck. In the era of big data, the bottleneck becomes particularly prominent when the wide-range application of the internet of things is common. The human brain is a system with high parallel computation and self-adaptive learning capability, and in order to solve the bottleneck limit of von Neumann, people put forward an artificial neural network to achieve the purpose of parallel computation and obtain a series of breakthrough achievements. However, the algorithms and related software of the artificial neural network still run on a conventional computer, resulting in problems of limited computing power, low efficiency and the like. Such as AlphaGo implemented by 1200 Central Processing Units (CPUs) and 180 image processors (GPUs), consumes up to several tens of watts.
Neuromorphic computations that mimic the development of the human brain have received attention in recent years because they can process large amounts of unstructured information in parallel in an efficient and energy-efficient manner. In the past few years, various artificial synapse devices, such as two-terminal configured memristors and multi-terminal configured neuromorphic transistors, have been used to construct hardware artificial neural networks for neuromorphic computations. Particularly, the ion-gated synaptic transistor for regulating the channel conductance state by using the electrolyte shows good linearity and symmetry in the aspect of weight updating, has extremely low switching voltage and long retention time, and realizes nearly ideal identification precision under the condition of ultralow energy consumption. However, these devices are susceptible to degradation after multiple cycles.

Detailed Description
The invention will be further explained and explained with reference to specific embodiments and the attached drawings.
Example 1
An electrolyte synapse transistor as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 in SiO 2 the/Si substrate 10 comprises molybdenum disulfide 20 as a conductive channel, and a drain electrode 30, a source electrode 40 and a side gate electrode 50 which are positioned on the molybdenum disulfide 20, so that a plane three-terminal synapse transistor is formed. The surfaces of the conductive channels outside the drain electrode 30, the source electrode 40 and the side gate electrode 50 are provided with a graphite alkyne layer 60 as a floating gate storage layer. The floating gate memory layer and a part of the side gate electrode 50 are covered with a solid electrolyte 70, and the solid electrolyte 70 is a mixture of polyethylene oxide and lithium perchlorate (the mass ratio is 3:1).
The preparation method of the electrolyte synapse transistor comprises the following steps:
(1) And (3) obtaining multiple layers of molybdenum disulfide by a mechanical stripping method, transferring the molybdenum disulfide onto the PET substrate, wherein the thickness of the molybdenum disulfide is 3.753nm. And then preparing a source electrode, a drain electrode and a side gate electrode on the molybdenum disulfide by adopting a laser direct writing photoetching method and a thermal evaporation method. The source electrode, the drain electrode and the side gate electrode are all Au/Cr materials, and comprise Cr with the thickness of about 5nm in contact with molybdenum disulfide and Au with the thickness of about 50nm covered on the Cr.
(2) And growing graphite alkyne on the surfaces of the molybdenum disulfide outside the source electrode, the drain electrode and the side gate electrode by using a Van der Waals epitaxial method, wherein the thickness of the graphite alkyne is 6.845m.
(3) And (3) covering photoresist on the surface of the sample obtained in the step (2), and exposing the channel region and part of the side gate electrode by utilizing a photoetching technology.
(4) And (2) dissolving polyoxyethylene and lithium perchlorate (the mass ratio of 3:1) in 20ml of anhydrous methanol to obtain ionic liquid, dripping the ionic liquid on the channel region and the exposed surface of the side gate electrode, and drying to form a solid electrolyte with the thickness of about 400nm to obtain the electrolyte synaptic transistor.
Example 2
This example is similar to example 1 except that SiO was added 2 And replacing the/Si substrate with a PET substrate to finally obtain the flexible electrolyte synapse transistor.
Performance testing
(1) FIG. 3 shows the side gate voltage (V) g ) Device transfer characteristics swept from-3V to 3V and back from 3V to-3V at 100mV/s, the scan sequence being detailed in FIG. 3And (4) sequencing. When V is g =0V, it can be observed that the on/off ratio is 10 2 Indicating a non-volatile change in channel conductance.
(2) The above-described counterclockwise hysteresis can be explained by the mechanism shown in fig. 4. Lithium ions in the solid electrolyte are driven to the surface of the Graphyne (GDY) under positive gate voltage and are gathered on the surface of the material, and then inserted into the interlayer of the graphyne through the uniformly distributed holes of the graphyne [ FIG. 4 (a) ]]. Testing applied gate voltage V g Less than Li + Redox potential of Li (-3.045V), so that Li is intercalated in the graphatidine + Which can be considered as a positive charge, induces a large number of electrons in the molybdenum disulfide through an Electric Double Layer (EDL) gating effect, thereby increasing the conductivity of the molybdenum disulfide. When the gate voltage becomes zero, at the concentration gradientDriven by the ion current, lithium ions accumulated on the surface of the graphdiyne gradually diffuse back into the electrolyte. In contrast, li intercalated in graphyne + Are so stable that they remain trapped in the graphoyne after the side-gate voltage is removed, rendering the device non-volatile [ FIG. 4 (b) ]]. When V is g Li inserted into graphyne at < 0V + Driven by a reverse electric field, the molybdenum disulfide channel is separated from the graphite alkyne, so that the conductance of the molybdenum disulfide channel is restored to the initial state [ figure 4 (c) ]]。
(3) As shown in FIG. 5, the read current V is controlled d =100mV, when a voltage pulse (1.0 v, 50ms) is applied to the side gate electrode, the electrolyte synapse transistor gets a positive current Spike (Spike) response, EPSC. After the side gate voltage pulse is removed, the channel current gradually declines from the peak value to the initial state.
(4) The test was performed by current pulse stimulation (0.1 pA to 1pA, step 0.1pA) with a read voltage of 0.1V, and a plurality of different conductance states were obtained, as shown in FIG. 6. Since the amount of lithium ions inserted/removed by current pulse driving can be precisely controlled (Q = I _ SG × t), the conductance state change value (Δ G) of the electrolyte synapse transistor is stable, providing a condition for forming a linear and symmetrical conductance update trace.
(5) The electrolyte synapse transistors were tested with 20 positive current pulses (0.1pA, 50ms) and 20 negative current pulses (0.1pA, 50ms) applied in sequence, with an interval of 50ms, and the results are shown in FIG. 7. The electrolyte synapse transistors exhibit nearly perfect linear and symmetric weight update trajectories. During the rise and fall, a sufficiently stable conductance state is obtained (see inset in fig. 7).
(6) The flexible electrolyte synaptic transistor of example 2 was subjected to LTP/LTD tests with different bending radii, and the results are shown in FIG. 8, wherein in FIG. 8 (a), the initial state is flat between 0 and 2000 pulses, and the folded state is between 2000 and 4000 pulses (the folded state is bent toward the front surface of the electrolyte synaptic transistor (i.e., the side loaded with the conductive channel, the source electrode, the drain electrode, and other materials), and the bending radius is 2.5mm]The pulse number is 4000 to 6000 stages in a curved state (meaning toward electrolysis)The back side of the texture synapse transistor was bent with a bend radius of 2.5 mm). The test results reflect that the electrolyte synaptic transistor exhibits stable and repeatable cycling characteristics, and that the LTP/LTD curves in the bent and folded states also exhibit good linearity and symmetry, as well as a large number of effective conductance states and high conductance ratios (G) max /G min ). Fig. 8 (b) reflects the absence of attenuation in the on/off current state of the device after 1000 consecutive bend cycles.
(7) Under Hebbian's STDP learning rules, the synaptic behavior simulation behavior of the electrolyte synaptic transistors is shown in FIG. 8. Presynaptic spike V pre And post-synaptic spike V post To the side gate electrode and the drain electrode, respectively. Defining the synaptic weight before STDP learning as the initial weight (W) under the condition that each reading voltage is 0.1V 0 ) Synaptic weight after STDP training is W STDP Thus, the change in synaptic weight is defined as ξ = (W) STDP -W 0 )/W 0 X 100%. As shown in FIG. 9 (a), the Hebbian learning rule is by applying Δ t post-pre (the time interval in which the pre-synaptic pulse arrives before the post-synaptic pulse) spaced double triangular pre-and post-synaptic spikes. As shown in FIG. 9 (b), when the pre-synaptic pulse arrives before the post-synaptic pulse, i.e., Δ t post-pre >At 0, the device exhibits LTP synaptic behavior; conversely, when Δ t post-pre <At 0, the device exhibits LTD synaptic behavior. With | Δ t post-pre The plasticity of the device gradually disappears as the value of | increases.
(8) FIG. 10 is a simulation of in-memory computational results of logical AND of an electrolyte synapse transistor. The function of the and logic memory is simulated using two signal inputs (1v, 2s) and one modulation input (-1v, 2s). IN the case of IN1= IN2= "0" (i.e., IN-00), the device output current is less than 10 -10 A, corresponds to a logical "0". When the input signal is deactivated, the device realizes the storage of-00 logic, and the high resistance state is continuously maintained. IN the case of IN-10 and IN-01, the device also outputs a logic "0" and the high resistance state is not changed after the input signal is removed. On the other hand, IN IN-11 (V) G1 =V G2 In the case of = 1V), the device obtains a high current output (10 to 10) -6 A) Corresponding to a logical "1".
