Optoelectronic Memory Devices: Overcoming Challenges with 2D Van der Waals Heterostructures

Conventional floating-gate nonvolatile memory devices have powered data storage technologies for decades. However, as data-intensive applications demand higher performance and energy efficiency, these devices face critical limitations in terms of scalability, reliability, and endurance. This has spurred interest in optoelectronic memory (OEM) devices, an emerging class of memory technology that leverages light for data storage…
