Description

Based on a-SiOxNySPR (surface plasmon resonance) nerve synapse device with memristive effect and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of bionic devices, and particularly relates to a-SiO-based bionic devicexNySPR (surface plasmon resonance) nerve synapse device with memristive effect and a preparation method thereof.
Background
The traditional computer is based on a von neumann architecture, however, in the von neumann architecture, data calling and transmission between an information memory and a processor are connected through a bus, so that the efficiency of information processing is influenced by not only the operation rate and the storage rate of the processor, but also the information transmission capability of the bus, and a so-called von neumann bottleneck is formed. Although the amount of information processed by the human brain is not less than that of a computer, the efficiency is obviously higher and the energy consumption is smaller. Therefore, researchers build the idea of intelligent computers, and hopefully, the computers are enabled to learn the neural network to better simulate the functions of human brains, and the computers which are closer to the human brains are manufactured. Therefore, research and development of a neuro-bionic computer which has human-brain-like self-adaptive capacity and can process various information in parallel is always a research hotspot in the future computer field. Biophysical studies indicate that the completion of brain function is indistinguishable from the synapse, and the plasticity of the synapse is the basis for the brain to simultaneously complete information storage and processing. Therefore, biomimetic simulation of the neural synapses is an important step in artificial neural network research and is also the key to the research of neuromorphic computers and other intelligent terminals.
In the field of intelligent devices and neurosynaptic simulation research, a memristor draws attention of researchers through novel characteristics of the memristor, and the researchers find that according to a theoretical model of the memristor, the resistance value of the memristor can change along with the application of voltage and can remember the changed state, the unique nonlinear transmission characteristic of the memristor has high similarity with the behavior and principle of the neurosynaptic in a biological brain. The similarity enables the memristor to be very suitable for serving as a nerve synapse bionic device, and the memristor is used for constructing a nerve morphology chip and further used for an artificial neural network. In a conventional neuromorphic chip, transistors are the basic unit for constructing biomimetic synapses. However, the transistor-based bionic synapse device is not only bulky, high in energy consumption and poor in learning ability, but also has to reconstruct a circuit to form a new weight. In contrast, memristors are a superior biomimetic synapse device. The memristor is used as a bionic synapse device, so that the memristor is small in size, low in power consumption and high in cycle frequency, the working state (the resistance value after excitation) of the memristor is maintained without energy (namely, the memristor has self-sustaining property), and more importantly, the resistance value of the memristor has continuous adjustability. However, the memristor still has defects, and at present, in a neuromorphic chip constructed based on the memristor (namely, a resistive random access memory ReRAM) at home and abroad, electric signals are used as information media to write and read synaptic weights, namely, an 'electric modulation and electric reading' mode, and the main defects of the working mode are that the signal processing bandwidth is small, and crosstalk is easily generated in the electric signal transmission process.
Disclosure of Invention
In view of the above, the invention provides an a-SiO-based bionic synapse for solving the problems that the signal processing bandwidth is small and crosstalk is easy to occur in the signal transmission process when the existing bionic synapse based on the memristor worksxNyAn optical reading SPR (surface plasmon resonance) nerve synapse device with a memristive effect and a preparation method thereof. The invention makes the nerve synapse device use the optical signal as the information medium through the reasonable structure design, and reads the synapse weight by using the light intensity to represent the synapse weight, thereby breaking through the bandwidth limitation and the electromagnetic interference of the traditional nerve synapse device signal processing.
In order to achieve the purpose, the invention adopts the following technical scheme:
on the one hand, the invention provides a catalyst based on a-SiOxNySPR nerve synapse device of memristive effect, characterized in that: comprises a memristor and a crystalline silicon prism arranged above the memristor, wherein the memristor is provided with a bottom electrode/a first a-SiO from bottom to topxNyResistive layer/second a-SiOxNyThe resistance change layer/top electrode is of a vertical four-layer structure, and the refractive index of the crystalline silicon prism is not less than that of the second a-SiOxNyThe refractive index of the resistance-change layer enables the near-infrared light under electrical modulation to be emitted to the first a-SiO through the crystalline silicon prismxNyResistive layer/second a-SiOxNyIn the case of dual-resistance-change layer, the top electrode and the second a-SiOxNyPlasma resonance is generated at the interface between the resistance change layers, evanescent waves are generated on the surface of the top electrode, and the wavelength range of the near infrared light is 800 nm-1700 nm;
when electrical modulation is applied between the top and bottom electrodes of the device, the second a-SiO is driven by a bias voltage during one cycle of the electrical modulationxNyA resistance change layer and a first a-SiOxNyThe change of the interface position between the resistance change layers can realize the continuous change of the resistance of the double resistance change layers orAnd the continuous change of the synapse weight further realizes the functions of electrical modulation and optical reading of the SPR nerve synapse device.
Further, a crystalline silicon wafer is arranged between the memristor and the crystalline silicon prism.
Furthermore, the top electrode is made of metal silver or gold, and the thickness of the top electrode is 30 nm-60 nm.

In a preferred embodiment, the bottom electrode is a circular electrode array, the diameter of the array unit is 5 μm to 300 μm, and the edge distance between adjacent array units is 5 μm to 20 μm.
Further, the first a-SiO in the present inventionxNyThe resistive layer may be pure a-SiOxNyThe film may be a-SiO containing metal nanoparticlesxNyA film; second a-SiO in the inventionxNyThe resistance change layer is a-SiO containing metal nano-particlesxNyA film, and the content of metal nanoparticles is higher than that of the first a-SiOxNyMetal nanoparticle content of the resistance change layer.

Preferably, the first a-SiOxNyThe volume percentage of the metal nano particles of the resistance change layer is not higher than 10 percent, and the second a-SiO isxNyThe volume percentage of the metal particles of the resistance change layer is 20-45%.
In a-SiOxNyThe metal-rich layer and the metal-deficient layer are prepared by the material and used for realizing the adjustability of the resistance of the device. Because the metal-rich layer has higher conductivity than the metal-poor layer, a uniform conductive front end interface exists between the two layers, and the conductive front end moves towards the metal-rich layer (or the metal-poor layer) along with the applied voltage, so that the proportion of the metal-rich layer (or the metal-poor layer) in the whole device becomes smaller, and the conductivity is increased (reduced).

In another aspect, the present invention provides a composition based on the above a-SiOxNyThe preparation method of the SPR nerve synapse device with the memristive effect is characterized by comprising the following steps of:
step A: manufacturing of memristors:
a1: depositing a metal layer on the bottom surface of the crystalline silicon wafer as a top electrode;
a2: forming a double-resistance-change layer window on the bottom surface of the top electrode, and then sequentially depositing a-SiO on the bottom surface of the top electrode which is coated with glue and patternedxNyFilm as the second a-SiOxNyA resistance change layer and a first a-SiOxNyA resistance change layer of the first a-SiOxNyThe resistance change layer is an intrinsic amorphous silicon oxynitride film or amorphous silicon oxynitride (a-SiO) containing metal nanoparticlesxNy) Film of the second a-SiOxNyThe resistance change layer is amorphous silicon oxynitride (a-SiO) containing metal nanoparticlesxNy) A film having a metal nanoparticle content higher than that of the first a-SiOxNyThe resistance change layer is high, and redundant second a-SiO is stripped after deposition is finishedxNyResistive layer/first a-SiOxNyThe resistance-change layer is a double resistance-change layer;
a3: in the first a-SiOxNyForming a bottom electrode pattern on the bottom surface of the resistance change layer, and coating and patterning the first a-SiOxNyDepositing a metal layer on the resistance change layer until the deposition is finishedThen stripping off the redundant metal layer to obtain the first a-SiOxNyA bottom electrode on the bottom surface of the resistance change layer; thus, a memristor is prepared;
and B: manufacturing a neurosynaptic device:
and D, bonding the crystalline silicon prism with the memristor obtained in the step A, and thus finishing the preparation of the SPR nerve synapse device.
Further, the memristor can be directly manufactured on the bottom surface of the crystalline silicon prism, namely, the bonding operation of the crystalline silicon wafer and the crystalline silicon prism is omitted, and the bottom electrode/the first a-SiO is directly manufactured on the bottom surface of the crystalline silicon prismxNyResistive layer/second a-SiOxNyThe resistance change layer/top electrode is vertical to the memristor with the four-layer structure.
Further, in the present invention, the bottom electrode, the first a-SiOxNyA resistance change layer and a second a-SiOxNyThe deposition of the resistance change layer is realized by combining a physical vapor deposition method with a photoetching process.
The basic principle of the invention is as follows: the refractive index of the crystalline silicon prism is larger than that of the double resistance change layer, so that when the incident light with specific wavelength is from the incident surface of the crystalline silicon prism at the incident angle thetasWhen the incident light strikes the bottom of the crystalline silicon prism or the crystalline silicon wafer, the incident light generates evanescent waves on the surface of the top electrode below the crystalline silicon prism or the crystalline silicon wafer, and further generates Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) at the interface of the top electrode/a second-Si resistance change layer, so that the incident angle theta is metsIs strongly absorbed and the strongly absorbed optical signal is reflected from the exit face of the crystalline silicon prism and output with a minimum amplitude. The second a-SiO when a bias voltage is applied between the top and bottom electrodes of the device (electrical modulation)xNyA resistance change layer and a first a-SiOxNyThe interface of the resistive layer moves under the action of the electric field, so that the dielectric constant of the dual resistive layer between the top electrode and the bottom electrode is changed, and the Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) condition of the incident light and the top electrode is changed accordingly, if the light signal still has the same incident angle theta as the above-mentioned incident angle thetasInto a crystalline silicon prism or crystal siliconWhen the wafer is at the bottom, due to the fact that the SPR condition of the incident light and the top electrode changes, namely the condition of the minimum light amplitude is destroyed, the plasma absorption effect is weakened, and the intensity of an output light signal detected on the emergent surface of the crystalline silicon prism is enhanced; at this time, it is necessary to change the incident angle θ of the incident lightsSo that the incident light and the top electrode satisfy the SPR condition again, and the optical signal output from the exit surface of the crystalline silicon prism after reflection has the minimum amplitude, specifically, the second a-SiO is made to have the minimum amplitude by changing the bias condition (electrical modulation) of the voltage applied between the top electrode and the bottom electrodexNyA resistance change layer and a first a-SiOxNyThe interface transition of the resistive layer is performed in a gradual and reversible manner (positive and negative voltage switching). For any of the second a-SiOxNyA resistance change layer and a first a-SiOxNyInterface position between resistive layers (which corresponds to synaptic weight), light incident angle θ satisfying SPR conditionsIs always unique. Thus, during one cycle of electrical modulation, the second a-SiO is driven by the bias voltagexNyA resistance change layer and a first a-SiOxNyThe change of the interface position between the resistance change layers can realize the' first a-SiOxNyResistive layer/second a-SiOxNyThe resistance value of the double-resistance-change layer of the resistance-change layer or the synapse weight is continuously changed, so that the incident angle theta meeting the SPR conditionsWith the consequent change. Obviously, in the neurosynaptic device provided by the invention, the synaptic weight and the surface plasmon resonance incidence angle thetasThere is a one-to-one correspondence relationship based on which "electrical modulation, optical readout" of the memristive neurosynaptic device is achieved.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the following beneficial effects:
the invention relates to a neurosynaptic device which combines a microelectronic element memristor and an optical prism, in particular to a large-refractive-index element, namely a crystalline silicon prism and a top electrode/a-SiOxNyMetal nano particle double resistance change layer/bottom electrode memristor structure coupling to ensure incident light to enter along material with larger refractive indexThe double-resistance variable layer with the smaller refractive index is beneficial to avoiding grazing incidence and reducing optical loss, and the dielectric constant change information of the resistance variable layer is read by optical signals in the working process of the device by using the Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) effect, so that the optical reading of the synapse weight is realized. Because the optical signal has the characteristics of large bandwidth and strong anti-electromagnetic interference capability, the electrical modulation and optical reading nerve synapse device provided by the invention has the advantages which are incomparable to the traditional electrical modulation and electrical reading nerve synapse device, not only has the characteristics of low energy consumption, non-volatility and the like of the traditional memristor, but also has the advantages of large signal processing bandwidth and strong anti-electromagnetic interference capability by taking the optical signal as an information carrier.
