Korean team demos 3D memristor-TFT stack for neuromorphic chips
Researchers from Seoul National and Yonsei universities built a new 3D chip that stacks memristors—tiny electrical components that can "remember" past voltages—on thin-film transistors. This design lets them control how the chip processes signal timing using electrical programming, not just the materials themselves. That makes it more flexible for projects that use brain-like (neuromorphic) computing, especially those handling changing information over time.
- Memristors vertically stacked on thin-film transistors
- Enables programmable processing timescales via electrical control
- Chip tested as a "reservoir computer" for time-based data
- Offers wider flexibility than typical neuromorphic hardware
