Photo-synaptic receptors emulating the natural biological photodetectors in human retina are required to build artificial visual perceptional systems as a new solution for augmented reality. Biological photoreceptors transform continuous light illumination into pulse-train like frequency-modulated signals. However, state-of-art photo-synaptic electronic devices are only capable of transforming light pulse signals into synaptic current signals without mimicking biological photodetectors. Here, a photo-synaptic pixel circuit (PSPC) for artificial retina with organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) is reported to demonstrate a frequency-modulated spiking signals output responding to continuous light illumination. The reported PSPC is supposed to smooth the way for biomimetic photoreceptor arrays served as an artificial retina. In this work, photo-sensing is achieved by building a PSPC with phototransistors using indacenodithiophene-benzothiadiazole (IDT-BT) as the active layer.
