Abstract
This article deals with the stochastic resonance (SR) phenomenon experimentally observed in HfO2-based memristors. The SR impact on the binary spike time-dependent plasticity (STDP) protocol at the device level was investigated. We demonstrate that the two extreme conductance states of the device that represent the synaptic weights in neuromorphic systems can be better distinguished with the incorporation of Gaussian noise into the bias signal. This technique allows setting the memristor conductance which is directly related to the overlap between the pre- and postsynaptic pulses. The study is reproduced in the LTSPICE simulator using the dynamic memdiode model (DMM) for memristors.
期刊介绍:
IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices publishes original and significant contributions relating to the theory, modeling, design, performance and reliability of electron and ion integrated circuit devices and interconnects, involving insulators, metals, organic materials, micro-plasmas, semiconductors, quantum-effect structures, vacuum devices, and emerging materials with applications in bioelectronics, biomedical electronics, computation, communications, displays, microelectromechanics, imaging, micro-actuators, nanoelectronics, optoelectronics, photovoltaics, power ICs and micro-sensors. Tutorial and review papers on these subjects are also published and occasional special issues appear to present a collection of papers which treat particular areas in more depth and breadth.
