Abstract: The large-scale artificial synaptic device arrays based on the organic molecule-nanowire heterojunctions with tunable photoconductivity are proposed and demonstrated. The organic thin films of p-type 2,7-dioctyl[1]benzothieno[3,2-b][1] benzothiophene (C8-BTBT) or n-type phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PC61BM) are used to wrap the InGaAs nanowire parallel arrays to configure two different type-I heterojunctions, respectively. Due to the difference in carrier injection, persistent negative photoconductivity (NPC) or positive photoconductivity (PPC) are achieved in these heterojunctions. The irradiation with different wavelengths (solar-blind to visible ranges) can stimulate the heterojunction devices, effectively mimicking the synaptic behaviors with two different photoconductivities. Evidently, these photosynaptic devices are illustrated with retina-like behaviors and capabilities for large-area integration, which reveals their promising potential for artificial visual systems.

Abstract: A computing system performs artificial-intelligence (AI) super-resolution (SR). The computing system includes multiple processors, which further includes a graphics processing unit (GPU) and an AI processing unit (APU). The computing system also includes a memory to store AI models. When detecting an indication that the loading of the GPU exceeds a threshold, the processors reduce the resolution of a video output from the GPU in response to the indication. One of the AI models is selected based on graphics scenes in the video and the respective power consumption estimates of the AI models. The processors then perform AI SR operations on the video using the selected AI model to restore the resolution of the video for display.
