In this paper, we propose a low power artificial neuron based on the Ag/MXene/GST/Pt device with excellent TS characteristics, including a low set voltage(0.38 V)and current(200 nA), an extremely steep slope(< 0.1 m V/dec), and a relatively large off/on ratio(> 10^(3)). Besides, the characteristics of integrate and fire neurons that are indispensable for spiking neural networks have been experimentally demonstrated. Finally, its memristive mechanism is interpreted through the first-principles calculation depending on the electrochemical metallization effect.展开更多
