Electro?Optically Configurable Synaptic Transistors With Cluster?Induced Photoactive Dielectric Layer for Visual Simulation and Biomotor Stimuli
Insulating poly (1,8?octanediol?co?citrate (POC)) with clusterization?triggered photoactive can be employed as dielectric layer to develop electro?optically configurable transistors. By enhancing photoactivity of POC layer after 200 °C annealing, devices realize multiwavelength optical synaptic memory properties exceeding 3?bits. The optical synaptic plasticity, biologically degradable dielectrics, and motion?activation functions within a single device open new avenues at the intersection of optoelectronics and bioengineering.The integration of visual simulation and biorehabilitation devices promises great applications for sustainable electronics, on?demand integration and neuroscience. However, achieving a multifunctional synergistic biomimetic system with tunable optoelectronic properties at the individual device level remains a challenge. Here, an electro?optically configurable transistor employing conjugated?polymer as semiconductor layer and an insulating polymer (poly(1,8?octanediol?co?citrate) (POC)) with clusterization?triggered photoactive properties as dielectric layer is shown. These devices realize adeptly transition from electrical to optical synapses, featuring multiwavelength and multilevel optical synaptic memory properties exceeding 3 bits. Utilizing enhanced optical memory, the images learning and memory function for visual simulation are achieved. Benefiting from rapid electrical response akin to biological muscle activation, increased actuation occurs under increased stimulus frequency of gate voltage. Additionally, the transistor on POC substrate can be effectively degraded in NaOH solution due to degradation of POC. Pioneeringly, the electro?optically configurability stems from light absorption and photoluminescence of the aggregation cluster in POC layer after 200 °C annealing. The enhancement of optical synaptic plasticity and integration of motion?activation functions within a single device opens new avenues at the intersection of optoelectronics, synaptic computing, and bioengineering.
