AbstractRealizing Artificial Intelligence (AI) requires modern hardware that is capable of processing complex analog data with an efficiency comparable to the human brain. However, existing semiconductor devices struggle to process large volumes of data due to fundamental limitations like high-power consumption, limited functionality, and low number of memory states. This project seeks to develop a new type of neuromorphic device called moiré synaptic transistors to address these limitations. By putting
