Low energy consumption photoelectric memristors with multi‑level linear conductance modulation for slimmer, smarter artificial visual systems

https://www.eurekalert.org/news-releases/1097964

"AI chip on-sensor vision acts like optical synapse... sense, store, process information retina-like... single 0.5 V, 5 ms optical pulse consumes only 187 pJ, conductance updates show 99.6 % linearity eliminating redundant weight tuning/ cutting system power... interface traps photo-carriers, dynamically lowering barrier/ enabling multi-level linear conductance modulation, 2-terminal cross-point structure, wide-band response allows outdoor/ night-time operation without filters... autonomous night driving"
