摘要

Artificial intelligence has advanced with the emergence of deep learning techniques. However, the performances of deep neural networks in Von Neumann architectures are limited by the memory bottleneck. In-memory computing using memristive devices, is a promising solution, with significant improvement in speed, efficiency, and scalability. This work demonstrates the application of RF-sputtered Hafnium Oxide (HfOx) based memristive device for implementing logic gates targeted at In-memory computing applications. A model for Pt/HfOx/Ag based memristor was developed, adopting the Voltage ThrEshold Adaptive Memristor (VTEAM) model, showing close match with experimental I-V data (rms error:0.0078). The Verilog-A model for this memristive device was developed and implemented in Cadence Virtuoso circuit simulator and realized basic logic gates using the Memristor Aided Logic design-MAGIC and analyzed its performances in terms of delay and energy. This work bridges the gap between experimental validation, theoretical modeling, and circuit implementation, illustrating the potential of HfOx-based memristor for high performance, energy efficient computations.
