Interface Charge Engineering in Ferroelectric Neuristors for a Complete Machine Vision System.

The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence has driven the demand for hardware solutions of neuromorphic pathways to effectively mimic biological functions of the human visual system. However, current machine vision systems (MVSs) fail to fully replicate retinal functions and lack the ability to update weights through all-optical pulses. Here, by employing rational interface charge engineering via varying the charge trapping layer thickness of PMMA, we determine that the ferroelectric polarization of our ferroelectric neuristors can be flexibly manipulated through light or electrical pulses.

Energy-Efficient Reservoir Computing Based on Solution-Processed Electrolyte/Ferroelectric Memcapacitive Synapses for Biosignal Classification.

The classification of critical physiological signals using neuromorphic devices is essential for early disease detection. Physical reservoir computing (RC), a lightweight temporal processing neural network, offers a promising solution for low-power, resource-constrained hardware. Although solution-processed memcapacitive reservoirs have the potential to improve power efficiency as a result of their ultralow static power consumption, further advancements in synaptic tunability and reservoir states are imperative to enhance the capabilities of RC systems.

Towards high photoresponse of perovskite nanowire/copper phthalocyanine heterostructured photodetector.

One-dimensional nanowire structures composed of perovskite are widely recognized for their exceptional optoelectronic performance and mechanical properties, making them a popular area of investigation in photodetection research. In this work, a perovskite nanowire/copper phthalocyanine heterojunction-based photodetector was fabricated, which exhibits high photoresponse in the visible-near-infrared region. The incorporation of a heterojunction significantly enhanced the photoelectric performance.

Ultranarrow-band filterless photodetectors based on CHNHPbClBrmixed-halide perovskite single crystals.

Narrow-band photodetectors based on halide perovskite have recently attracted significant attention due to their exceptional narrow-band detection performance and tunable absorption peaks covering a wide optical range. In this work, we report mixed-halide CHNHPbClBrsingle crystal-based photodetectors have been fabricated, where the Cl/Br ratios were varied (3:0, 10:1, 5:1, 1:1, 1:7, 1:14 and 0:3). Vertical and parallel structures devices were fabricated which exhibited ultranarrow spectral responses under bottom illumination, with a full-width at half-maximum less than 16 nm.

Integration of image preprocessing and recognition functions in an optoelectronic coupling organic ferroelectric retinomorphic neuristor.

The human visual system (HVS) has the advantages of a low power consumption and high efficiency because of the synchronous perception and early preprocessing of external image information in the retina, as well as parallel in-memory computing within the visual cortex. Realizing the biofunction simulation of the retina and visual cortex in a single device structure provides opportunities for performance improvements and machine vision system (MVS) integration. Here, we fabricate organic ferroelectric retinomorphic neuristors that integrate the retina-like preprocessing function and recognition of the visual cortex in a single device architecture.

Significant Detectivity Enhancement of Broad Spectral Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Photodiodes by C Film as Hole-Blocking Layer.

As an important classification of photodetectors, broad spectral photodiodes are ubiquitous in the fields of industry and scientific research. Here, we reported a type of broad spectral organic-inorganic hybrid photodiodes (OIHPDs) based on planar-bulk heterojunction, which composed of 3,4,9,10-perylenetertracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCDA), copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) and fullerene (C). In our research, the dark current of the OIHPD with 10 nm C film (10 nm-C OIHPD) was as low as 25.

Immunogenicity and safety of the HPV-16/18 AS04-adjuvanted vaccine in healthy Chinese girls and women aged 9 to 45 years.

Immunogenicity and safety of the human papillomavirus (HPV)-16/18 AS04-adjuvanted vaccine were evaluated in healthy Chinese females aged 9-45 years in 2 phase IIIB, randomized, controlled trials. Girls aged 9-17 years (ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT00996125) received vaccine (n = 374) or control (n = 376) and women aged 26-45 years (NCT01277042) received vaccine (n = 606) or control (n = 606) at months 0, 1, and 6.
