PRESS RELESE: IONIC DEVICE ENABLING HIGH-PERFORMANCE RESERVOIR COMPUTING AT THE EDGE OF CHAOS
We reported a novel class of neuromorphic device, ion-gating reservoir, which can realize the edge of chaos state by ion-electron-coupled dynamics at solid electrolyte/diamond interfaces and achieve high performance reservoir computing. The research results were published online in the American scientific journal Science Advances on December 15, 2022 (Japan time). Furthermore, a related article appeared in the Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun (print and electronic versions) on December 27, 2022.

NIMS postdoctoral researcher Roda-san leaves the group
A small farewell get-together was held for Dr. Nur, who has been working as a postdoctoral researcher in our group since October 2021. Prior to assuming the post-doctoral researcher position, she continued her research activities in our group through the NIMS Internship Program and NIMS Joint Research Hub Program. Dr. Nur will return to the U.S. to work in the private sector. Roda-san, we wish you a greater career ahead!!
Ms. itoh leaves the group after 14 years of working in our group
Ms. Itoh is leaving NIMS after being with the group for 14 long years since April 2008. She worked as a NIMS Special Researcher and a technical staff to support our group's research work. Even if hte place of work changes, we hope that her smile will remain the same. Thank you for your many years of support, Itoh-san.
