Abstract

The invention discloses a method for realizing positive and negative photoconduction in a memristor by using an optical signal. The memristor comprises a bottom electrode layer, a top electrode layer and an oxide layer located between the bottom electrode layer and the top electrode layer, wherein the oxide layer comprises an oxygen-enriched layer and an oxygen-deficient layer, the oxygen-enriched layer is adjacent to the top electrode layer, and the oxygen-deficient layer is adjacent to the bottom electrode layer. According to the method, the optical signal is input through the top electrode layer, and the method comprises the steps that the memristor obtains a positive photoconduction mode or a negative photoconduction mode through the optical signal; in the forward photoconduction mode, the optical signal is ultraviolet light; and in the negative photoconduction mode, the optical signal is visible light or infrared light. By utilizing the own characteristics of the memristor disclosed by the invention, the reversible regulation and control of the positive and negative conductance polarities of the memristor can be realized under the optical signals with different wavelengths.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of optoelectronic technology, more specifically, to a method for regulating the positive and negative polarities of a memristor photoconductor by using an optical signal. Background technique [0002] With the advent of the era of artificial intelligence and big data, the requirements for real-time information transmission and processing on computer performance continue to increase. In the traditional Von Neumann computer architecture, the computing power improvement scheme based on Moore's Law has gradually been limited by physical bottlenecks, and scaling and integration of devices can no longer provide the required performance gain. The human brain can store and process information in parallel and perform large-scale calculations, which greatly reduces power consumption. The development of brain-like smart devices is one of the important directions to break through the current technological bottleneck. [0003] Me...
