Abstract
The present invention discloses a neuron and a neuromorphic system including the same. The neuron according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a metal insulator metal (MIM) device including a metal ion-doped insulating layer and configured to perform integration and fire, and the MIM device is formed to have a negative differential resistance (NDR) region in which current decreases as voltage increases.
Claims16
A neuron, comprising a metal insulator metal (MIM) device comprising a metal ion-doped insulating layer and configured to perform integration and fire,
- wherein the MIM device comprising the metal ion-doped insulating layer is formed to have a negative differential resistance (NDR) region in which current decreases as voltage increases.
A neuromorphic system, comprising:
- one or more pre-neurons;
- one or more synapses electrically connected to the pre-neurons;
- and
- one or more post-neurons electrically connected to the synapses and each comprising a metal insulator metal (MIM) device comprising a metal ion-doped insulating layer,
- wherein the post-neurons perform integration and fire.
