Abstract

Deep ultraviolet (DUV)-light-stimulated artificial synaptic devices exhibit potential applications in various disciplines including intelligent military monitoring, biological and medical analysis, flame detection, etc. Along these lines, we report here a DUV-light-stimulated synaptic transistor fabricated on a poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) ultrathin film that responds selectively to DUV light. Significantly, our devices have the ability to successfully simulate various synapse-like behaviors including excitatory postsynaptic currents (EPSCs), paired-pulse facilitation (PPF), short-term memory (STM), long-term memory (LTM), STM-to-LTM transition, and learning and forgetting behaviors. Moreover, the proposed artificial synaptic structures were also fabricated on flexible poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) substrates and also successfully simulated typical synaptic behaviors, which could be of great importance for wearable applications.
