NREL: Energy-efficient synapse-like phototransistors for visual information computer processing, self-driving vehicle sensors

https://www.nrel.gov/manufacturing/news/press/2021/scientists-at-nrel-report-new-synapse-like-phototransistor

"combined metal-halide perovskite nanocrystals with single-walled carbon nanotube network, shined laser at it, electrical current continued flowing >1 hour at room temperature, mimicing brain synapses storing memories... only low voltages/ light intensities needed... works using any of 3 different types of perovskites: formamidinium lead bromide, cesium lead iodide, and cesium lead bromide... AI, machine learning"
