摘要
Devices that mimic the five basic physicochemical steps of neuronal processing of information (viz., propagation of electrical impulse in the emitting neuron to the synaptic cleft, release of chemical messenger in the synaptic cleft, diffusion of chemical messenger, detection of chemical messenger by the receiving neuron, reconstitution and propagation of electrical impulse in the receiving neuron) can be built taking advantage of the properties of double band electrodes. Such artificial neurons can be designed to perform as Boolean logical gates with 'AND' or 'OR' functionalities. (C) Academie des sciences/Elsevier, Paris.
