Driving the Future of Neuromorphic Electronics
We are the Memristor & Neuromorphic Computing Group at the University of Turku, part of the Wihuri Physical Laboratory. Our research focuses on Gd1-xCaxMnO3 (GCMO) memristors — novel electronic devices with the ability to store and process information in a single element.
Our mission is to advance memristor technology from fundamental materials science to functional hardware prototypes for real-world applications, including:
- Energy-efficient computing
- Spiking neural networks
- On-chip artificial intelligence
- Autonomous and defence-related systems
We collaborate widely with universities, research institutes, and industry, and our work is supported by competitive research funding. We are open to expand the collaborative network.
Our group operates dedicated cleanroom and laboratory facilities for memristor fabrication and characterization. We maintain equipment for thin film deposition (PLD, e-beam deposition ALD), maskless lithography and Ar/RIE etching, and comprehensive electrical testing.
