Organic Optoelectrical Synaptic Transistors for Color Information Processing

The light-induced synaptic transistors, with their large-scale and cost-effective benefits, hold significant promise for advancing neuromorphic electronics. In this work, we propose a hybrid phototransistor with a channel layer composed of C8-BTBT and PM6. This device exhibits an extended optical response range in comparison to pure C8-BTBT transistors. In addition, the device shows excellent synaptic plasticity under red, green, and blue light stimuli, with the potential for tuning through light dosage and pulse duration. The study further confirms consistent device performance and reliable operation. Moreover, we show that this type of device can be fabricated into array to write the letters "C", "S", and "U" and store red, green, and blue information. These experimental results show the excellent responsiveness and storage performance of our devices under red, green, and blue light stimuli, suggesting promising applications in artificial vision.
