Organic memristive device is an electronic system mimicking some properties of biological synapses. Slime mold - Physarum polycephalum - is a single cell living being, widely considered now for the unconventional computing application. This work is dedicated to the realization of hybrid organic memristive device/Physarum polycephalum system and studying of its electrical properties.

Abstract

Organic memristive device is an electronic system mimicking some properties of biological synapses. Slime mold - Physarum polycephalum - is a single cell living being, widely considered now for the unconventional computing application. This work is dedicated to the realization of hybrid organic memristive device/Physarum polycephalum system and studying of its electrical properties. It was found that the slime mold remains alive only when the appropriate biocompatible layer is inserted into the structure and that the characteristics of the system are very different from those of the standard organic memristive devices.
