Can we mimic human brain computation?

Our senior researcher, Dr. Mohammad Reza Golobostanfard, recently visited the Nano@HMU lab, led by Prof. Emanuel Kymakis and Prof. Kostas Rogdakis at the Hellenic Mediterranean University (HMU), as part of the “INFRACHIP” project funded by the European Research Council. INFRACHIP is a European research platform dedicated to the sustainable development of next-generation semiconductor chips. It provides researchers working on electronic chips for renewable energy applications access to HMU’s state-of-the-art laboratories.

During this collaborative visit, we tested newly developed layered halide double perovskite films, engineered through supramolecular techniques, for memristor and neuromorphic applications. The devices exhibited promising volatile memristive behavior. The collaboration is ongoing, with a focus on developing self-powered, light-responsive memory elements for artificial neuromorphic computing—systems designed to mimic the human brain.

This research is supported by funding from both the Research Council of Finland and the European Research Council.
