Position: Due to the way conventional CMOS-based architectures operate, they are ultimately limited by the Neumann bottleneck which makes them slow and energy-inefficient at certain tasks (vectorizable, highly parallel information processing). On the other hand, the human brain is an example for an architecture capable of massively parallel processing of information through each synaptic event only consumes about 1–100 fJ. Recent developments have shown that thin film neuromorphic devices can be very competitive in this new field. With this research projects we want to explore novel device and circuit architectures that enable neuromorphic circuit functionality.
