A nanofluidic oscillating neuron
摘要
Nanofluidics provide a transformative platform for creating neuron emulates, yet replicating their complex spiking dynamics remains challenging. Herein, we report a nanofluidic oscillating neuron (FON) which could emulate spiking-form encoding functions of neurons. This device showed neuromorphic oscillating ion conductance with a polyimidazolium-confined nanofluidic system in asymmetric solution environment. Similar with neuronal action potentials, the spiking originates from the anion/cation selectivity changes of polyimidazolium channels due to the dynamic interplay between the desorption/adsorption of
