Voltage-responsive biomimetic membranes and ion channels for neuromorphic computing

Neuromorphic systems constructed from biomolecular materials offer rich dynamics and memory properties, enabling low-power, brain-like signal processing and computing. Unlike many neuromorphic devices, biomolecular materials and systems emulate the nanoscale architectures and physical mechanisms of biological synapses and neurons, which are responsible for the brain’s complex computing functions and energy efficiency. This article reviews our own efforts to develop a new class of neuromorphic ha
