Design and simulation of charge transport in single-electron transistor using TCAD numerical simulator

The ability to control the electron flow of a MOSFET is decreased due to the quantum mechanical effect when scaled down below 50 nm. Hence, A new field of device research is needed to complete this challenge. A device based on Tunneling phenomena is called a single-electron device. In this paper, the most fundamental single-electron device is a single-electron transistor (SET) designed using visual TCAD with a gate length and width of 2 nm. The channel is ultra-thin with a length of 2 nm and a width of 0.005 nm, and the channel thickness is 0.3 nm. Then a Si quantum dot of size 0.5 × 1.nm² is used between the island and the gate. Both the Devices are simulated using the Genius Simulator. And it is found that at room temperature, the device with Si dot is more efficient. The device with Si dot has less capacitance and higher charging efficiency than the device without the Quantum dot.     

An optical led transmitter for baseband video with JFET non-linearity compensation

An optical, intensity-modulated LED transmitter for analog transmission of baseband video signals is presented. A differential-gain reduction of more than 20 dB can be obtained by means of a novel compensation technique using a JFET as the compensation device.The circuit as described in this paper is capable of supplying a signal current of about 100 mA into an LED, resulting in an optical output power of −18 dBm coupled into a 50 μm graded-index fibre. A bandwidth of more than 20 MHz is available for high-resolution picture transmission. Differential gain amounts to about two per cent. Differential phase is less than one degree.

“Quad-band flexible magnesium zinc ferrite (MgZnFe2O4)-based double negative metamaterial for microwave applications”

This article presents vertically coupled, rectangular complementary split-ring resonator-shaped quad-band double-negative (DNG) metamaterial unit cells, that is, having both negative permittivity and permeability, which redirect negative refractive and also are not found in nature. The metamaterial is fabricated on magnesium zinc ferrite-based flexible microwave substrates, and the flexible substrates are chosen with two different concentrations of magnesium (Mg) denoted by Mg₃₀ and Mg₅₀ for 30% and 50% of Mg, which possess dielectric constants of 4.32 and 3.15 and loss tangents of 0.003 and 0.005, respectively. The proposed metamaterials are demonstrated by utilizing the CST microwave simulator, and their effective parameters are extracted according to the Nicolson-Ross-Wire method. With Mg_30, the prepared, flexible metamaterial shows measured resonances at 3.70 GHz, 7 GHz, 8.60 GHz, and 9.78 GHz, whereas with Mg₅₀ it shows the measured resonances at 4.10 GHz, 7.70 GHz, 9.33 GHz, and 10.62 GHz. Very good effective medium ratios (EMR) along with DNG properties are obtained, namely 6.5 and 5.85 for Mg₃₀ and Mg_50, respectively, with a physical dimension of 12.5 × 9.5 mm² for both of the unit cells_. Also, the electric field, magnetic field, and surface current distribution at different resonances and the polarization insensitivity at different polarization angles were observed. Thus, the designed new flexible substrate microwave materials based on DNG metamaterials are potential candidates for S-, C- and X-band applications, as well as for flexible microwave technologies.     

SINR- and MI-Based Double-Robust Waveform Design

Owing to cognitive radar breaking the open-loop receiving–transmitting mode of traditional radar, adaptive waveform design for cognitive radar has become a central issue in radar system research. In this paper, the method of radar transmitted waveform design in the presence of clutter is studied. Since exact characterizations of the target and clutter spectra are uncommon in practice, a single-robust transmitted waveform design method is introduced to solve the problem of the imprecise target spectrum or the imprecise clutter spectrum. Furthermore, considering that radar cannot simultaneously obtain precise target and clutter spectra, a novel double-robust transmitted waveform design method is proposed. In this method, the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio and mutual information are used as the objective functions, and the optimization models for the double-robust waveform are established under the transmitted energy constraint. The Lagrange multiplier method was used to solve the optimal double-robust transmitted waveform. The simulation results show that the double-robust transmitted waveform can maximize SINR and MI in the worst case; the performance of SINR and MI will degrade if other transmitted waveforms are employed in the radar system.     

Low-energy antiproton-neon interaction

By means of a streamer chamber exposed to the LEAR antiproton beams, the total reaction cross sections, the charged-prong multiplicity distributions and lower limits for the production of negative pions and K_s⁰ in the p̄-Ne interaction were measured at 19.6, 48.7 and 179.6 MeV. Annihilation was found to be dominant over all other non-elastic p̄-Ne processes. An analysis of Ne and other nuclei data in the frame of the Glauber theory allowed us to determine the ratio between the p̄-n and the p̄-p cross sections. An analysis in the light of INC model predictions allowed us to show up events which can be interpreted as annihilations having occurred deeply inside the nuclei.     

Comparison of a very high frequency 148 MHz inductively coupled plasma to a 27 MHz ICP

Physical parameters and analytical performance are determined for an analytical ICP operated at 148 MHz, a frequency nearly three times higher than any previously reported. The iron(I) excitation temperatures are approximately 1.5 times lower and the electron densities are five times lower than at 27 MHz. The consequences of these changes are lower analyte and background continuum emission intensities, such that the signal to background ratios are decreased at the higher frequency. Freedom from interferences and working curve linearity are unaffected while ease of sample introduction is improved. A shift towards atomic emission indicates a deviation farther from LTE at 148 MHz. These effects are attributed to the decrease in skin depth with increasing frequency.     

Catalytic defects at molybdenum disulfide “edge” planes

Chemical and physical studies of molybdenum disulfide show that the extreme anisotropy which dominates the bulk properties of this layered compound is also very important in the understanding of surface properties. We observe that the basal surfaces in single crystals are chemically and optically inert. The edge surfaces are highly reactive to both oxygen and metallic impurities. Photoemission spectroscopy and optical absorption show that the edge surfaces have electronic states within the forbidden gap. The density of these surface defects is correlated with the hydrodesulfurization catalytic activity.
