Neuromorphic computing has come to refer to a variety of brain-inspired computers, devices, and models that contrast the pervasive von Neumann computer architecture. This biologically inspired approach has created highly connected synthetic neurons and synapses that can be used to model neuroscience theories as well as solve challenging machine learning problems. The promise of the technology is to create a brainlike ability to learn and adapt, but the technical challenges are significant, starting with an accurate neuroscience model of how the brain works, to finding materials and engineering breakthroughs to build devices to support these models, to creating a programming framework so the systems can learn, to creating applications with brain-like capabilities. In this work, we provide a comprehensive survey of the research and motivations for neuromorphic computing over its history. We begin with a 35-year review of the motivations and drivers of neuromorphic computing, then look at the major research areas of the field, which we define as neuro-inspired models, algorithms and learning approaches, hardware and devices, supporting systems, and finally applications. We conclude with a broad discussion on the major research topics that need to be addressed in the coming years to see the promise of neuromorphic computing fulfilled. The goals of this work are to provide an exhaustive review of the research conducted in neuromorphic computing since the inception of the term, and to motivate further work by illuminating gaps in the field where new research is needed.

In this work, a study on a semi-floating-gate synaptic transistor (SFGST) is performed to verify its feasibility in the more energy-efficient hardware-driven neuromorphic system. To realize short- and long-term potentiation (STP/LTP) in the SFGST, a poly-Si semi-floating gate (SFG) and a SiN charge-trap layer are utilized, respectively. When an adequate number of holes are accumulated in the SFG, they are injected into the nitride charge-trap layer by the Fowler–Nordheim tunneling mechanism. Moreover, since the SFG is charged by an embedded tunneling field-effect transistor existing between the channel and the drain junction when the post-synaptic spike occurs after the pre-synaptic spike, and vice versa, the SFG is discharged by the diode when the post-synaptic spike takes place before the pre-synaptic spike. This indicates that the SFGST can attain STP/LTP and spike-timing-dependent plasticity behaviors. These characteristics of the SFGST in the highly miniaturized transistor structure can contribute to the neuromorphic chip such that the total system may operate as fast as the human brain with low power consumption and high integration density.
