Short-term plasticity and long-term potentiation mimicked in single inorganic synapses

TL;DR: The discovery of a Ag(2)S inorganic synapse is reported, which emulates the synaptic functions of both STP and LTP characteristics through the use of input pulse repetition time and indicates a breakthrough in mimicking synaptic behaviour essential for the further creation of artificial neural systems that emulate characteristics of human memory.

A comprehensive review on emerging artificial neuromorphic devices

TL;DR: A comprehensive review on emerging artificial neuromorphic devices and their applications is offered, showing that anion/cation migration-based memristive devices, phase change, and spintronic synapses have been quite mature and possess excellent stability as a memory device, yet they still suffer from challenges in weight updating linearity and symmetry.
