Abstract

We report an optoelectronic synaptic diode based on a vertically stacked MoS2-WS2 van der Waals heterostructure. This diode demonstrates outstanding rectification characteristic, achieving a rectification ratio of up to 4.2×103. A remarkable persistent photocurrent is observed under white light illumination, attributed to the presence of charged dielectric surface trap states. Benefitting from such photo-induced memory behavior, optoelectronic synaptic plasticity such as short-term and long-term plasticity can be emulated by as-fabricated MoS2-WS2 heterostructure under various light stimuli. Moreover, a high linearity of synaptic weight updating is achieved with increasing light power, which further demonstrates its great potential in artificial neural networks for image processing.
