Abstract
Human brain synaptic memory simulation based on resistive random access memory (RRAM) has an enormous potential to replace traditional Von Neumann digital computer thanks to several advantages, including its simple structure, high-density integration, and the capability to information storage and neuromorphic computing. Herein, the reliable resistive switching (RS) behaviors of RRAM are demonstrated by engineering AlOx/HfOx bilayer structure. This allows for uniform multibit information storage. Further, the analog switching behaviors are capable of imitate several synaptic learning functions, including learning experience behaviors, short-term plasticity-long-term plasticity transition, and spike-timing-dependent-plasticity (STDP). In addition, the memristor based on STDP learning rules are implemented in image pattern recognition. These results may offer a promising potential of HfOx-based memristors for future information storage and neuromorphic computing applications.
