Abstract

Abstract Visual adaptation allows organisms to accurately perceive the external world even in dramatically changing environments, from dim starlight to bright sunlight. In particular, polarization‐sensitive visual adaptation can effectively process the polarized visual information that is ubiquitous in nature. However, such an intriguing characteristic still remains a great challenge in semiconductor devices. Herein, a novel porous metal–organic‐framework phototransistor with anisotropic‐ReS 2 ‐based heterojunction is demonstrated for polarization‐sensitive visual adaptation emulation. The device exhibits intriguing polarized sensitivity and an adaptive ability due to its strong anisotropic and trapping–detrapping characteristics, respectively. A series of polarization‐sensitive neuromorphic behaviors like polarization‐perceptual excitatory postsynaptic current, multimode adjustable dichroic ratio and reconfigurable sensory adaption, are experimentally demonstrated through this porous heterojunction phototransistor. More importantly, with the polarization–electricity cooperation strategy, advanced polarization‐sensitive visual adaptation with strong bottom‐gate control and environment dependence is successfully realized. These results represent a significant step toward the new generation of intelligent visual perception systems in autonomous navigation and human–machine interaction, etc.
