However, the technology has one major drawback – memristor properties are inherently random. Information cannot be programmed in a precise manner. As a result, efforts to exploit the technology often result in neural network models that are less performant than their software counterparts or require mitigation techniques that can negate potential energy benefits. In this paper we summarise how, alternatively, these intrinsic device properties, previously regarded as non-idealities to be mitigated, are well suited for an alternative approach - Bayesian machine learning. Like resistive memory device properties, Bayesian parameters are described by distributions of probability - offering a more natural pairing of device and algorithm.","PeriodicalId":6737,"journal":{"name":"2021 International Conference on IC Design and Technology (ICICDT)","volume":"157 1","pages":"1-4"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76629805","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The detectivity – a merit that is usually limited for planar Schottky photodetectors – can be improved by photonic nanostructures like pyramids that offer a path to increase responsivity and reduce dark currents. We took two approaches based on nanopyramids and investigated their potential to improve the detectivity. By partially metalizing the pyramid, a reduction in dark current is expected; through optimizing the structural parameters, the reflection from the device can be diminished. Using an easy-to-access geometrical explanation as well as finite-difference time-domain simulation, we derived basic design rules and the limitation in improvement one can expect from these approaches.","PeriodicalId":6737,"journal":{"name":"2021 International Conference on IC Design and Technology (ICICDT)","volume":"48 3 1","pages":"1-4"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73057906","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
