contents Neuromorphic computing aims to mimic the architecture and the information processing mechanisms of the mammalian brain, appearing as the only avenue that offers significant energy savings compared to the standard digital computers. Memcapacitive devices (which can change their capacitance between different non-volatile states upon the application of electrical stimulation) can significantly reduce the energy consumption of bioinspired circuitry. In the present work, we study the multimem (memristive and memcapacitive) behavior of devices based on thin films of the topotactic redox La$_{1/2}$Sr$_{1/2}$Mn$_{1/2}$Co$_{1/2}$O$_{3-x}$ (LSMCO) perovskite modified with Sm:Ce$O_2$ (SCO), grown on Nb:SrTiO$_{3}$ with (001) and (110) out of plane orientations. Either the self assembling at the nanoscale of both LSMCO and SCO phases or the doping with Ce(Sm) of the LSMCO perovskite were observed for different fabrication conditions and out of plane orientations. The impact of these changes on the device electrical behavior was determined. The optimum devices resulted those with (110) orientation and Ce(Sm) doping the perovskite. These devices displayed a multimem behavior with robust memcapacitance and significantly lower operation voltages (especially the RESET voltage) in comparison with devices based on pristine LSMCO. In addition, they were able to endure electrical cycling (and the concomitant perovskite topotactic redox transition between oxidized and reduced phases) without suffering nanostructural or chemical changes. We link these properties to an enhanced perovskite reducibility upon Ce(Sm) doping. Our work contributes to increase the reliability of LSMCO based multimem systems and to reduce their operating voltages closer to the 1 V threshold, which are key issues for the development of nanodevices for neuromorphic or in memory computing.
