Symposium EL08-Advances in Inorganic Materials and Devices for Neuromorphic Computing and Sensing Applications

Neuromorphic computing architectures emulate adaptive learning and parallel processing, promising low power consumption, fast response times, and high integration- ideal for wearable and robotic technology. Multifunctional and biocompatible materials capable of intelligently interfacing with biology are crucial for creating artificial synapses and neuromorphic sensory systems. Photonic synapses offer wide bandwidth and faster computation, especially for image recognition, and ionotronics enable coupling electrons with ions to bridge the gap between biological and electronic systems, advancing bionic perception in robotics. The symposium aims to showcase the latest advancements in inorganic and hybrid materials for bio-inspired information processing, bio-computation, and biosensing, emphasizing simultaneous memory, sensing and processing capabilities, and local adaptive bio-interfaces.
