Abstract
Resistive switching is a promising technology for artificial synapses, the most critical component and building block of a neural network for brain-inspired neuromorphic computing. The artificial synapse is capable of emulating a signal process and memory functions of biological synapses. The artificial synapse fabricated by natural bioorganic materials is essential for developing soft, flexible, and biocompatible electronics and sustainable, biodegradable, and environmentally friendly neuromorphic systems. In this work, a natural biomaterial - honey based resistive switching device - was demonstrated to emulate some important functionalities of biological synapses, including synaptic potentiation and depression, short-term and long-term memory, spatial summation, and shunting inhibition. The results indicate the potential of honey based resistive switching for artificial synaptic devices in renewable neuromorphic systems and bioelectronics.
