Project funded by Research Council of Finland, grant 374566. Participating organisations named by the source: University of Turku. Funded amount: EUR 697,172, as stated by the source. Runs 2026-09-01 to 2030-08-31. Keywords: Materials engineering. Source: OpenAIRE Graph, from the funder's project data (collected by OpenAIRE on 2026-07-06); national funding data, not CORDIS. Abstract given by the source: The growing demand for artificial intelligence is pushing computing hardware to its energy limits, as data constantly shuttles between separate memory and processing units. This project addresses the fundamental bottleneck by developing light-emitting memristors, nanoscale devices that combine memory and light emission, eliminating energy-wasting electrical connections. Using solution-processed perovskite quantum dots embedded in optical microcavities, I will create artificial synapses. This research will be carried out at the University of Turku, focusing on nanomaterials science, photonics, and neuromorphic engineering. The technology could enable intelligent displays that process visual information directly within each pixel, drastically reducing AI energy consumption while enabling new, privacy-preserving edge computing systems that sense, compute, and display on a unified platform.
