THE effect of Srandom DOPANT fluctuation on threshold voltage and drain current variation in junctionless nanotransistors

We investigate the effect of dopant random fluctuation on threshold voltage and drain current variation in a two-gate nanoscale transistor. We used a quantum-corrected technology computer aided design simulation to run the simulation (10000 randomizations). With this simulation, we could study the effects of varying the dimensions (length and width), and thicknesses of oxide and dopant factors of a transistor on the threshold voltage and drain current in subthreshold region (off) and overthreshold (on). It was found that in the subthreshold region the variability of the drain current and threshold voltage is relatively fixed while in the overthreshold region the variability of the threshold voltage and drain current decreases remarkably, despite the slight reduction of gate voltage diffusion (compared with that of the subthreshold). These results have been interpreted by using previously reported models for threshold current variability, load displacement, and simple analytical calculations. Scaling analysis shows that the variability of the characteristics of this semiconductor increases as the effects of the short channel increases. Therefore, with a slight increase of length and a reduction of width, oxide thickness, and dopant factor, we could correct the effect of the short channel.     

Generalization of the thermal model of infrared radiation sensors

In many theories and applications, generalized models can give a good head start for further research where the implementation of new elements and/or boundary conditions could become quite complex. In this paper the development of a compact thermal model of an infrared sensor will be presented. This thermal model includes not only the thermal resistances and capacitances of the sensor structure itself but the radiative and convective thermal resistances to the ambience and between the sensor plate and the heat source (thermal transfer impedance) which is important when the heat source and the sensor are in close proximity. Limitations and the applicability of the proposed model are also discussed. We also aim to present how the proposed model can be used for other IR sensor structures as well.     

A novel water-based epoxy coating using self-doped polyaniline–clay synthesized under supercritical CO2 condition for the protection of carbon steel against corrosion

The synthesis of a polyaniline–clay nanocomposite (PAniC NC) was achieved using the in situ polymerization of aniline in a Cloisite^® 30B nanoclay suspension in a supercritical CO₂ (Sc-CO₂) medium. The interfacial co-polymerization of aniline (ANI) and m-aminobenzenesulfonic acid (SAN) in the presence of Cloisite^® 30B was performed in Sc-CO₂/water to produce the SPANI-clay NC. The NC was then mixed with a water-based hardener. This water-based composite is developed with the goal of reducing environmental and health risks. The use of this Sc-CO₂ technique produced a composite material that resulted in the enhanced protection of carbon steel against corrosion when compared to a similar composite synthesized under atmospheric conditions. The materials obtained were characterized using UV/visible spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction and scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The anti-corrosion performance and the adhesion properties of these coatings were evaluated using standardized tests. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was also used to determine the electrochemical properties of these anti-corrosion coatings. Better exfoliation and dispersion of the clay was achieved using the Sc-CO₂ medium resulting in superior performances in corrosion and electrochemical tests because of the higher level of intercalation.

Fundamental Evaluation of Power Supply and Rectifiers for Wireless Power Transfer Using Magnetic Resonant Coupling

This paper provides a fundamental analysis of a power supply and rectifiers for wireless power transfer using magnetic resonant coupling (MRC). MRC enables efficient wireless power transfer over middle‐range transfer distances. MRC for wireless power transfer should operate at a high frequency in the industry science medical band, such as 13.56 MHz, because the size of the transfer device decreases at higher transfer frequencies. Therefore, the output frequency of the power supply on the transmitting side should be 13.56 MHz. In addition, the rectifier on the receiving side is operated at a high frequency. This paper focuses on the reflected power in the power supply and rectifiers. Thus, the parametric design method is clarified for the power supply, including a low‐pass filter to match the output, the impedance of the power supply with the characteristic impedance of the transmission line. In addition, the effects on the rectifiers of silicon carbide and gallium nitride diodes are confirmed by performing an experiment and a loss analysis.     

Stress-deformable state of isotropic double curved shell with internal cracks and a circular hole

This work is devoted to the stress–strain state of isotropic double curved shell with defect system. The construction is weakened by two non-through thickness (internal) cracks of different length and by a circular hole located between cracks. In this study we use the line-spring model. Within the framework of this model cracks are modeled as mathematical cuts of shell’s middle surface. This leads to a two-dimensional problem. The problem is reduced to a system of eight boundary integral equations. To ensure the uniqueness of solution an additional equation is added. In the numerical solution of the problem special quadrature formulas for singular integrals of Cauchy type and the finite difference method are applied. The influence of defects on each other for double curved shell has been investigated. The given theoretical results can be used for the calculation of structural elements with holes, cracks on the strength and fracture toughness in various branches of engineering.

Black hole entropy,the black hole information paradox,and time travel paradoxes from a new perspective

ABSTRACT

Relatively simple but apparently novel ways are proposed for viewing three related subjects: black hole entropy, the black hole information paradox, and time travel paradoxes. (1) Gibbons and Hawking have completely explained the origin of the entropy of all black holes, including physical black holes – nonextremal and in 3-dimensional space – if one can identify their Euclidean path integral with a true thermodynamic partition function (ultimately based on microstates). An example is provided of a theory containing this feature. (2) There is unitary quantum evolution with no loss of information if the detection of Hawking radiation is regarded as a measurement process within the Everett interpretation of quantum mechanics. (3) The paradoxes of time travel evaporate when exposed to the light of quantum physics (again within the Everett interpretation), with quantum fields properly described by a path integral over a topologically nontrivial but smooth manifold.
