A dual-mode transparent device for 360° quasi-omnidirectional self-driven photodetection and efficient ultralow-power neuromorphic computing

J per synaptic event, indicating an energy efficiency comparable to synaptic processes in the human brain. Moreover, nonlinear photoconductivity lets the device become a neuromorphic sensor for preprocessing images, enhancing recognition accuracy. Importantly, by leveraging the long-memory characteristic of the devices in open-circuit voltage mode, the devices have been successfully applied to guide humanoid robots in performing direction distinguishing and motion learning. This work provides new insights into the integrated manufacturing of multifunctional monolithic devices and foresees their immense potential in upcoming advanced, low-power neuromorphic computing systems.
