"10 volts in pulses as short as 5 nanoseconds... 10,000 times faster than its biological counterparts... nanometers across, making them 1,000 times smaller than biological synapses. Experts told New Scientist that the device’s three-terminal setup, as opposed to the two found in most neuron models, might make it difficult to run certain kinds of neural networks. The fact that the protons have to be introduced using hydrogen gas also presents challenges when scaling the technology up"
