Since conventional silicon metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) is approaching its scaling limit, novel devices structures are being explored lately. The scaling of the technology to dimensions below ~45 nm, where short channel effects start to become significant, ... En savoir plus

Field-effect transistors (FETs) exhibit favourable characteristics for biological and chemical sensing applications, including multi-parameter response, tunable sensitivity, and inherent amplification [1], [2]. As sensors, FETs employ their gate or active channel as a sensing area, where ... En savoir plus

This study investigates the shock boundary layer interaction occurring at the base of a double sharp fin. The base geometry is of particular interest, with comparisons made between flat and semi-cylindrical bases. The flow field is characterized via numerical simulations and ... En savoir plus

Large-scale manufacturing of electronic components require efficient forms of quality testing to ensure bulk fabrication and processing is performed to standard. With numerical simulations, the ideal behavior of such components may be evaluated to better know what to expect. ... En savoir plus

A critical constraint in handling high power laser beams approaching 100kW of peak average power is thermal management due to laser absorption. Seurat Technologies uses a unique, optically addressed spatial light modulator (OASLM) with liquid crystals to dynamically shape laser beams for ... En savoir plus

In our dynamic energy landscape, it is increasingly important to utilize energy efficiently and minimize waste. To achieve this, advancing our research beyond traditional battery storage, which has numerous limitations, is crucial. One promising solution is compressed gas energy storage. ... En savoir plus

While prosthetic joints can improve people’s quality of life, there is an unmet need for the treatment of post-surgery infections. A novel technology has been developed that can treat these infections with electromagnetic heating. A series of anatomical models of knees with implants ... En savoir plus

Artificial cascades for the electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) to form value-added products are a developing technology, in which mass transport, reaction rates, local microenvironment and concentrations are all crucial parameters. These properties are highly dependent on the ... En savoir plus

Electric forces acting on a neutral matter in divergent electric fields generate mechanical stresses even in absence of charged species. This mechanism is invoked here as a factor in solid dielectric breakdown (BD). Closed form analysis for coaxial cylinders and point-to-plane gaps is ... En savoir plus

Toxic and hazardous air pollutants are released during chemical processes. The surrounding area of a chemical facility always has a high risk of air pollution by released chemicals. Furthermore, the personnel of the facility as well as community residents have risks of sudden ... En savoir plus
