Ferroelectric Material Adapts to Light Stimuli by Reorganizing Atomic Connectivity

“Today’s supercomputers and data centers demand many megawatts of power,” said Haidan Wen, a Physicist at the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory. “One challenge is to find materials for more energy-efficient microelectronics. A promising candidate is a ferroelectric material that can be used for artificial neural networks as a component in energy-efficient microelectronics.”
