Controllable Charge Storability in InP/ZnSe Core/Shell Quantum Dots toward Bioinspired Optical Synaptic Application.

ABSTRACT: Optoelectronic materials with proper charge storage play a pivotal role in the development of artificial neuromorphic devices aiming to mimic the visual, sensory, and memory functions of the human nervous system. This study presents the controllable charge storability in Indium Phosphide quantum dots through being capped with Zinc Selenide shells of different thicknesses. The organic transistors with the quantum dots integrated demonstrate shell-thickness-dependent optoelectronic memory characteristics, featuring optically programmable-electrically erasable channel states. Analysis reveals that the optoelectronic performance of the device is ascribed to the photoexcitation and the following charge storage process in the quantum dots. The device of the thickest quantum-dot-shell performs we
