Objective
The World's digital transformation generates vast amounts of data daily. Conventional computing technologies face serious challenges in efficiently handling all this information, leading to high energy consumption. Neuromorphic computing offers a more efficient solution by designing systems inspired by the structure and function of the human brain, which processes information in parallel with minimal energy consumption. A key component in this technology is the memristor, a novel electronic element that mimics the synapses and spiking processes of neurons. The memristors containing lead-based halide perovskites (Pb-HPs) are among the best-performing, but the presence of toxic Pb hinders their practical application.
MemSusPer aims to develop sustainable, Pb-free HP memristor devices with high performance, stability, reproducibility, and low energy consumption. This will be achieved through two main strategies: (1) enhancing the quality of the perovskite films, and (2) using novel buffer layer materials, such as organic mixed ionic electronic conductors, to regulate the ions migration and induce new energy-efficient activation/deactivation mechanisms. I will conduct the research at the Institute of Advanced Materials (University Jaume I, Spain) with the guidance of Prof. Antonio Guerrero, a leading expert in the field. To validate the developed technology, a 4x4 memristor array will be fabricated using the advanced infrastructure of the Institute of Emerging Technologies (Hellenic Mediterranean University, Greece). MemSusPer is committed to advancing next-generation neuromorphic computing, which is not only high-performing but also eco-friendly, contributing to the green and digital transitions prioritised in the European Union's agenda. The multidisciplinarity and high impact of MemSusPer, combined with the training component of the MSCA-PF, will help me become a tenured independent researcher, expand my expertise, and strengthen my academic profile and networks.

Net EU financial contribution. The sum of money that the participant receives, deducted by the EU contribution to its linked third party. It considers the distribution of the EU financial contribution between direct beneficiaries of the project and other types of participants, like third-party participants.
