However, achieving efficient and stable thermal\u2013electrical conversion in low\u2010dimensional materials remains challenging. Although few\u2010layer Tellurene (Te) exhibits pyroelectricity owing to intrinsic broken symmetry, this effect is confined to the trilayer limit, \u2010restricting its practical applications. Here, we demonstrate that Te nanowires (Te NWs) overcome this limitation through edge\u2010induced symmetry breaking, enabling robust and persistent pyroelectric polarization. Under photothermal excitation, Te NWs exhibit a synergistic pyroelectric\u2013bolometric coupling, wherein photothermal modulation of polarization and resistance cooperatively enhances the thermally driven photocurrent. Without external bias, the device operates in a fully self\u2010driven mode, exhibiting excitatory synaptic responses governed solely by thermally driven charge dynamics. With biases, the response becomes bidirectional, emulating both excitatory and inhibitory synaptic characteristics. Leveraging these dual mechanisms, a Te NW\u2010based artificial vision system achieves 97% digit recognition accuracy through light\u2010driven learning without external electrical bias, demonstrating energy\u2010efficient, self\u2010stimulated neuromorphic functionality. This work establishes Te NWs as a promising material platform that bridges thermal\u2013energy harvesting, bioinspired sensing, and self\u2010stimulated neuromorphic computing.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/smll.73716","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,10]],"date-time":"2026-05-10T18:24:40Z","timestamp":1778437480000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Synergistic Pyroelectric\u2010Bolometric Coupling in Tellurene Nanowire for Energy\u2010Efficient Artificial Vision"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"22","author":[{"given":"Thi Uyen","family":"Tran","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"SKKU Advanced Institute of Nanotechnology (SAINT) Sungkyunkwan University  Suwon South Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ngoc Thanh","family":"Duong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Material Science and Engineering Phenikaa School of Engineering Phenikaa University  Hanoi Vietnam"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ngoc Linh","family":"Nguyen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Material Science and Engineering Phenikaa School of Engineering Phenikaa University  Hanoi Vietnam"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Nayeong","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"SKKU Advanced Institute of Nanotechnology (SAINT) Sungkyunkwan University  Suwon South Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0001-6991-3591","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Minh Chien","family":"Nguyen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Sungkyunkwan University  Suwon South Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Koyal Suman","family":"Samantaray","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"SKKU Advanced Institute of Nanotechnology (SAINT) Sungkyunkwan University  Suwon South Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yoonmyung","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Sungkyunkwan University  Suwon South Korea"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0751-1458","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Seong Chu","family":"Lim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Energy Science Sungkyunkwan University  Suwon South Korea"},{"name":"Department of Smart Fab.
