15.1 Introduction

One of a challenging issue in developing brain-inspired hardware is to implement nonvolatile analog synaptic devices in a compact structure. Various types of volatile (capacitor-based) analog synaptic devices have been developed [1–3], whereas types of nonvolatile analog synaptic devices are limited so far. Present nonvolatile synaptic devices use flash-based or its alternative ...
