Abstract
This paper presents a concept of a solid-state
memcapacitor based on a combination of memristor and
capacitor, as well as its applications to cellular
nanoscale networks. In addition to ultra-dense memories,
memcapacitors can also be used for synaptic connections
and threshold control in arrays with capacitively coupled
processing units. In principle, the proposed CNN cell
structure implements the basic McCulloch-Pitts neuron
model. Although the cell relies on the binary
programmability scheme with single-bit template
coefficients, the proposed memcapacitive synapses allow
for asynchronous processing of tasks, for which the
traditional cloning templates contain both positive and
negative values
