Two-terminal multistate memory elements based on VO(2)/TiO(2) thin film microcantilevers are reported. Volatile and non-volatile multiple resistance states are programmed by current pulses at temperatures within the hysteretic region of the metal-insulator transition of VO(2). The memory mechanism is based on current-induced creation of metallic clusters by self-heating of micrometric suspended regions and resistive reading via percolation.

Extending ferroelectric materials to two-dimensional limit provides versatile applications for the development of next-generation nonvolatile devices. Conventional ferroelectricity requires materials consisting of at least two constituent elements associated with polar crystalline structures. Monolayer graphene as an elementary two-dimensional material unlikely exhibits ferroelectric order due to its highly centrosymmetric hexagonal lattices.

Advancing neuromorphic computing technology requires the development of versatile synaptic devices. In this study, we fabricated a high-performance Al/LiNbO/Pt memristive synapse and emulated various synaptic functions using its primary key operating mechanism, known as oxygen vacancy-mediated valence charge migration (V-VCM). The voltage-controlled V-VCM induced space-charge-limited conduction and self-rectifying asymmetric hysteresis behaviors.

Nonadiabatic dynamics is key for understanding solar energy conversion and photochemical processes in condensed phases. This often involves the non-Markovian dynamics of the reduced density matrix in open quantum systems, where knowledge of the system's prior states is necessary to predict its future behavior. In this study, we explore time-series machine learning methods for predicting long-time nonadiabatic dynamics based on short-time input data, comparing these methods with the physics-based transfer tensor method (TTM).
