Two Orders of Magnitude Reduction in Computational Load Achieved by Ultrawideband Responses of an Ion-Gating Reservoir

Current Topics

We developed a physical reservoir device, ion-gating reservoir (IGR), utilizing ultrawide and complex responses of ion and electron at the graphene/ion-gel interface, achieving high computational performance comparable to deep learning while reducing the computational load by 99%. The IGR offers low-power, high-performance computing for resource-constrained environments, such as edge AI.
