Abstract

The limitations of conventional von Neumann computing architectures in handling complex, data-intensive tasks have spurred significant interest in brain-inspired neuromorphic computing. A critical challenge in this field is the development of hardware that can efficiently emulate the synaptic plasticity of biological neurons. This study focuses on the synthesis, characterization, and integration of ferroelectric thin films, specifically hafnium zirconium oxide (HZO), as a promising material platform for creating artificial synaptic devices. The primary objective was to fabricate high-quality HZO thin films and demonstrate their capacity to mimic key synaptic functions. HZO films were synthesized using pulsed laser deposition, followed by comprehensive characterization of their structural, ferroelectric, and electrical properties using XRD, PFM, and I-V measurements. The optimized films were then integrated into two-terminal memristive device structures. The resulting devices successfully exhibited essential synaptic behaviors, including potentiation, depression, and spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP), with low energy consumption per synaptic event. The gradual and controllable modulation of ferroelectric domain switching was identified as the core mechanism enabling this analog-like resistance modulation.

Abstract

Background. Sufism has historically played a central role in shaping Islamic spirituality in Indonesia, yet its presence and function in contemporary contexts—particularly among urban and rural communities—remain underexplored. Amid the dynamic religious landscape of modern Indonesia, marked by increasing pluralism, conservatism, and digital religiosity, the integration of Sufi practices and values continues to adapt and evolve in nuanced ways. Purpose. This study aims to examine how Sufism is practiced, perceived, and institutionalized within both urban and rural Muslim communities in Indonesia. The research investigates the social, spiritual, and cultural factors that influence the persistence and transformation of Sufi traditions in the context of modern life. Method. Employing a qualitative comparative approach, the study conducted fieldwork in two locations: a metropolitan city (Jakarta) and a rural district in Central Java. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with 30 participants including religious leaders, followers of various tariqas (Sufi orders), and community members, supported by participant observation and document analysis. Results. Findings reveal that urban Sufi communities emphasize symbolic spirituality, self-development, and integration with digital platforms, while rural counterparts maintain traditional rituals, communal dhikr, and strong lineage-based networks. Despite contextual differences, both settings reflect a shared commitment to inner transformation and ethical living, with Sufism offering a counterbalance to materialism and ideological rigidity. Conclusion. The study concludes that Sufism continues to serve as a meaningful spiritual resource in Indonesian Islam, adapting to socio-cultural shifts while maintaining its core emphasis on personal piety and social harmony.
