In this work, cathodic electrochemical deposition was proposed to fabricate reproducible and homogeneous hematite (alpha-Fe2O3) nanoparticles on indium-tin-oxide (ITO) films. The alpha-Fe2O3 nanoparticles, which were quasi-hexagonally shaped, were deposited in an aqueous mixture of FeCl2 and FeCl3 at the temperatures 16.5 degrees C, 40 degrees C and 60 degrees C. The electrochemically deposited alpha-Fe2O3 nanoparticles showed excellent stability and good crystallinity. The alpha-Fe2O3 nanoparticles were characterized by Raman spectroscope and X-ray diffractometer (XRD). A scanning electron microscope (SEM) was used to measure the size and shape of the nanoparticles. The experiment results have shown that the size and shape of nanoparticles were determined by electrochemical deposition conditions including the deposition time, current density, reaction temperature and solution concentration. The proposed electrochemical deposition method has been proven to be a cost-effective, environment friendly and highly efficient approach in fabricating well decentralized alpha-Fe2O3 nanoparticles for different potential applications.

Achieving reinforcement learning in a three-active-terminal neuromorphic device based on a 2D vdW ferroelectric material

Feng Guo, Weng Fu Io, Zhaoying Dang, Ran Ding, Sin-Yi Pang, Yuqian Zhao, Jianhua Hao

Summary: Currently, most three-terminal neuromorphic devices only have an active gate terminal, limiting the implementation of complex neural behaviors and brain-like thinking strategies. In this study, we utilize the unique co-existing in-plane and out-of-plane ferroelectricity in 2D & alpha;-In2Se3 to create a three-active-terminal neuromorphic device with each terminal capable of modulating conductance. Through the cooperative mode, we achieve control of food intake as a complex nervous system-level behavior and implement reinforcement learning using the coupling effect between polarizations in different directions. The practicality of three-active-terminal neuromorphic devices in handling complex tasks and their potential for implementing brain-like learning strategies are demonstrated.
