A yield enhanced layout method for maximizing yield of integrated resistor networks with a fixed total area is discussed. This approach incorporates both random variations in the sheet resistance and random variations in the contact resistances. The concept of contact/sheet resistance crossover which gives the crossover between contact-resistance dominance and sheet resistance dominance is deve...

Micro-pattern gas detectors, such as the Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) and the Micromegas need narrow high density anode readout elements to achieve good spatial resolution. A high-density anode readout would require an unmanageable number of electronics channels for certain potential micro-detector applications such as the Time Projection Chamber. We describe below a new technique to achieve g...

We have investigated Mn, Co and Ni substitution effects on polycrystalline samples of LaFePO0.95F0.05 by resistivity and magnetoresistance measurements. In LaFe1-xMxPO0.95F0.05 (M = Mn, Co and Ni), the superconducting transition temperature (Tc) monotonously decreases with increasing the impurity doping level of x. There is a clear difference of Tc suppression rates among Mn, Co and Ni doping c...

this study is considering a micropolar fluid flow over a porous stretching sheet in the presence of thermal radiation and uniform magnetic field. the effects of local variation in thermal conductivity of micropolar fluid on heat transfer rate from the sheet are investigated; besides, the impacts of radiation, magnetic field and porous sheet on variations of thermal boundary layer thickness are ...

Magnonics is an emerging field with potential applications in classical and quantum information processing. Freely propagating magnons in two-dimensional media are subject to dispersion, which limits their effective range and utility as information carriers. We show the design of a confining magnonic waveguide created by two surface current carrying wires placed above a spin-sheet, which can be...

because of production process and constrains conditions, circular graphene sheet may be opposed to structural defect and pin hole, respectively. some of the defects and pin hole on a circular graphene sheet can be considered as an eccentric hole on the sheet. hence, analyzing behavior of circular graphene sheet with an eccentric hole is important. free vibration of an eccentric annular graphene...

Measurements of the 500–2000-MHz brightness temperature spectra Antarctica acquired under Ice Sheet and Sea Ultrawideband Microwave Airborne eXperiment (ISSIUMAX) are reported. These data sets support remote sensing ice sheet properties, in particular information on profile within sheet. The Software-Defined Radiometer (UWBRAD) was installed a Twin Otter aircraft, measurements were collected co...

balance sheet itself does not specify and show all the activities that a bank pays. because banks can do many swap contracts and obligations, exchange, and commitments outside of the balance sheet. to such activities and exchange that will not appear on the balance sheet, are saying off-balance sheet activities. these items are usually reported in the notes to the attached financial statements....
