Ion-based neuromorphic devices have attracted wide interest as the basic building block of neuromorphic signal processing [1]. Here, we describe a multipore nanofluidic memristor with conical pores on a polymeric substrate that shows a wide range of ionic conduction properties, including current rectification [2]. These properties are based on the electrical interaction between the functionalized charges on the conical pore surface and the nanoconfined ionic solution [3]. The memristor shows a range of ionic conduction properties that can be controlled by the amplitude and frequency of the voltage signal, the salt type, the ionic concentration, and the solution pH. The multipore membrane allows reliable responses by maximizing current output through an ensemble of pores. Also, it does not demand difficult operational procedures because the physico-chemical signals involved here are usual in electrochemical systems and can be easily handled. This wide modulation of ionic conduction and rectification is highly desirable for implementing logic functions, memory, and transistor characteristics that are central to complex neuromorphic phenomena. Further, the chemical gating switched in current and polarity by means of the pH control provides additional functionality for chemical computation and neuromorphic applications including synaptic potentiation and depression.

nanoGe is a prestigious brand of successful science conferences that are developed along the year in different areas of the world since 2009. Our worldwide conferences cover cutting-edge materials topics like perovskite solar cells, photovoltaics, optoelectronics, solar fuel conversion, surface science, catalysis and two-dimensional materials, among many others.
Previously nanoGe Spring Meeting (NSM) and nanoGe Fall Meeting (NFM), MATSUS is a multiple symposia conference focused on a broad set of topics of advanced materials preparation, their fundamental properties, and their applications, in fields such as renewable energy, photovoltaics, lighting, semiconductor quantum dots, 2-D materials synthesis, charge carriers dynamics, microscopy and spectroscopy semiconductors fundamentals, etc.
International Conference on Hybrid and Organic Photovoltaics
International Conference on Hybrid and Organic Photovoltaics (HOPV) is celebrated yearly in May. The main topics are the development, function and modeling of materials and devices for hybrid and organic solar cells. The field is now dominated by perovskite solar cells but also other hybrid technologies, as organic solar cells, quantum dot solar cells, and dye-sensitized solar cells and their integration into devices for photoelectrochemical solar fuel production.
Asia-Pacific International Conference on Perovskite, Organic Photovoltaics and Optoelectronics
The main topics of the Asia-Pacific International Conference on Perovskite, Organic Photovoltaics and Optoelectronics (IPEROP) are discussed every year in Asia-Pacific for gathering the recent advances in the fields of material preparation, modeling and fabrication of perovskite and hybrid and organic materials. Photovoltaic devices are analyzed from fundamental physics and materials properties to a broad set of applications. The conference also covers the developments of perovskite optoelectronics, including light-emitting diodes, lasers, optical devices, nanophotonics, nonlinear optical properties, colloidal nanostructures, photophysics and light-matter coupling.
The International Conference on Perovskite Thin Film Photovoltaics Perovskite Photonics and Optoelectronics (NIPHO) is the best place to hear the latest developments in perovskite solar cells as well as on recent advances in the fields of perovskite light-emitting diodes, lasers, optical devices, nanophotonics, nonlinear optical properties, colloidal nanostructures, photophysics and light-matter coupling.
