Artificial Intelligence (AI) at the edge has become a hot subject of the recent technology-minded publications. The challenges related to IoT nodes gave rise to research on efficient hardware-based accelerators. In this context, analog memristor devices are crucial elements to efficiently perform the multiply-and-add (MAD) operations found in many AI algorithms. This is due to the ability of memristor devices to perform in-memory-computing (IMC) in a way that mimics the synapses in human brain. Here, we present a novel planar analog memristor, namely NeuroMem, that includes a partially reduced Graphene Oxide (prGO) thin film. The analog and non-volatile resistance switching of NeuroMem enable tuning it to any value within the R_ON and R_OFF range. These two features make NeuroMem a potential candidate for emerging IMC applications such as inference engine for AI systems. Moreover, the prGO thin film …
