Abstract

Metaplasticity, a higher order of synaptic plasticity, as well as a key issue in neuroscience, is realized with artificial synapses based on a WO3 thin film, and the activity-dependent metaplastic responses of the artificial synapses, such as spike-timing-dependent plasticity, are systematically investigated. This work has significant implications in neuromorphic computation.
