Abstract
The nervous system is composed of various functional neurons, some of which perceive sound or light, and these physical signals can be converted into bioelectrical signals. From the biophysical point of view, piezoelectric ceramic embedded in neuronal circuits can detect the external auditory waves, while phototube can capture light signals, so as to obtain two functional neurons with auditory recognition and light-dependent recognition. Considering the two identical or different functional neurons are connected by an induction coil to stimulate magnetic field coupling, and there will be energy diversity when they are driven by different initial conditions or external stimulation. Thus, synaptic connections can be activated and awakened in an adaptive manner when field energy is exchanged, and the coupling channel remains open until the energy diversity between neurons is controlled at a limited threshold. For this purpose, a criterion of the coupling strength increases exponentially is proposed to discuss the enhancement of neuronal synaptic connections. It is found that two neurons can be coupled adaptively to achieve complete synchronization, quasi-synchronization or intermittent quasi-synchronization. These results could help in designing functional assistive devices for patients with hearing or vision impairment.
