The iontronic memristor has attracted growing attention as a promising candidate for neuromorphic computing and sensing. Recently, a novel iontronic memristor, termed the ion-shuttling memristor (ISM), has been proposed. Benefiting from its bio-mimicking structure, ISM can emulate ion-selective neuron functions alongside basic functions. ISM has several potential advantages, including interfacial receptors and the incorporation of multiple ionophores. On this basis, ISM may pave the way for future applications, such as sophisticated multi-carrier neuromorphic computing and neuromorphic sensing.
