ABSTRACT
The reliable conductance modulation of synaptic devices is key when implementing high-performance neuromorphic systems. Herein, we propose a floating gate IGZO synaptic device with an aluminum trapping layer to investigate the correlation between its diverse electrical parameters and pattern recognition accuracy. Basic synaptic properties such as excitatory postsynaptic current, paired pulse facilitation, long/short term memory, and long-term potentiation/depression are demonstrated in the IGZO synaptic transistor. The effects of pulse tuning conditions associated with the pulse voltage magnitude, interval, duration, and cycling number of the applied pulses on the conductance update are systematically investigated. It is discovered that both the nonlinearity of the conductance update and cycle-to-cycle variation should be critically considered using an artificial neural network simulator to ensure the high pattern recognition accuracy of Modified National Institute of Standards and Technology (MNIST) handwritten digit images. The highest recognition rate of the MNIST handwritten dataset is 94.06% for the most optimized pulse condition. Finally, a systematic study regarding the synaptic parameters must be performed to optimize the developed synapse device.
