Memristors with diffusive dynamics as synaptic emulators for neuromorphic computing
Open accessAbstract
The accumulation and extrusion of Ca 2+ in the pre- and postsynaptic compartments play a critical role in initiating plastic changes in biological synapses. To emulate this fundamental process in electronic devices, we developed diffusive Ag-in-oxide memristors with a temporal response during and after stimulation similar to that of the synaptic Ca 2+ dynamics. In situ high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and nanoparticle dynamics simulations both demonstrate that Ag atoms disperse under electrical bias and regroup spontaneously under zero bias because of interfacial energy minimization, closely resembling synaptic influx and extrusion of Ca 2+, respectively. The diffusive memristor and its dynamics enable a direct emulation of both short- and long-term plasticity of biological synapses, representing an advance in hardware implementation of neuromorphic functionalities.

In the paper
“In chemical synapses, the dynamical balance of the Ca 2+ concentration is shaped by both influx via voltage-sensitive calcium channels (VSCC) and N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDAR) 42,43 , and extrusion via the plasma membrane Ca 2+ -ATPase (PMCA) and Na + /Ca 2+ exchanger (NCE) 43,44 that restores [Ca 2+ ]i to the basal concentration.”

The “Changes in Ca2+ concentration” section says neuronal calcium can enter through voltage-gated calcium channels or NMDA receptors and identifies a resting intracellular concentration. It does not identify PMCA or the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger as the means of extrusion or say that they restore calcium to baseline. (LLM, conf=0.88)

The Introduction states that presynaptic voltage-gated calcium channels admit Ca2+ and that residual Ca2+ is cleared by a Ca2+-ATPase and a Na+/Ca2+ exchanger. It does not identify NMDARs as an influx route in this account or explicitly say these mechanisms restore intracellular calcium to its basal concentration. (LLM, conf=0.87)

The authors state this as an assumption.
The model treats electron flow as a series of tunnelling hops: input terminal to closest metal particle, particle to particle, and last particle to output terminal.
“For the state-dependent resistance we assume sequential electron tunnelling: first from the input terminal to the nearest metallic nanoparticle, and then from this nanoparticle to the next one and so on with the last tunnelling event to the output terminal.”
The authors state this as an assumption.
The tunnelling resistance amplitude is taken to be identical for every island.
“R 𝑡𝑡 the tunneling resistance amplitude (assumed the same for all islands)”
The authors state this as an assumption.
Each mobile metal nanoparticle is described by an overdamped Langevin equation with a trapping potential and a random force whose strength depends on the local device temperature.
“we employed an overdamped Langevin equation for each mobile metallic nanoparticle trapped by a potential 𝑈𝑈 and subject to a random force 𝜉𝜉 𝑖𝑖 , the magnitude of which is determined by the device local temperature 𝑇𝑇,”
The authors state this as an assumption.
The simulation model omits redox reactions.
“The model results here did not include redox reactions, although they can be added in order to more closely resemble the electrochemical models proposed previously [21][22][23][24][25][26] .”
The authors state this as an assumption.
The model's potential energy landscape has two distinct energy scales: a stronger interfacial term that forms large metallic clusters near the device terminals and a weaker pinning term with many wells between electrodes.
“The potential 𝑈𝑈 = 𝑈𝑈 𝐼𝐼 + 𝑈𝑈 𝑝𝑝 has two energy scales -the interfacial energy 𝑈𝑈 𝐼𝐼 responsible for formation of large metallic clusters near the device terminals and a weaker nanoparticlepinning energy 𝑈𝑈 𝑝𝑝 with many smaller wells between the electrodes.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-09-28, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-09-28 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
