AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) with Si and Al2O3 substrates reveals anomalies on Ids–Vds–T and Igs–Vgs–T characteristics (degradation in drain current, kink effect, barrier height fluctuations, etc.). Stress and random telegraph signal (RTS) measurements prove the presence of trap centers responsible for drain current degradation. An explanation of the trapping mechanism r...

The effects of link annotations on user search performance in hypertext environments having deep (layered) and shallow link structures were investigated in this study. Four environments were tested—layered-annotated, layered-unannotated, shallow-annotated, and shallow-unannotated. A single document was divided into 48 sections, and layered and unlayered versions were created. Additional version...

In this paper, a new Si/SiGe heterojunction tunneling field-effect transistor with a T-shaped gate (HTG-TFET) is proposed and investigated by Silvaco-Atlas simulation. The two source regions of the HTG-TFET are placed on both sides of the gate to increase the tunneling area. The T-shaped gate is designed to overlap with N+ pockets in both the lateral and vertical directions, which increases the...

Span programs form a linear-algebraic model of computation, with span program “size” used in proving classical lower bounds. Quantum query complexity is a coherent generalization, for quantum algorithms, of classical decision-tree complexity. It is bounded below by a semi-definite program (SDP) known as the general adversary bound. We connect these classical and quantum models by proving that f...

Investigating the longitudinal optical conductivity of graphene systems, which is the mostimportant property for opto-electronic devices, for three-layer graphene systems theoretically and numerically is the main purpose of this study. Each layer can be mono- or bi-layer graphene. Separation between layers has been denoted by d, selected to be about ten nanometers. The carrier densities i...

A rigorous semi-analytical approach for specific microstructured optical fibers, which are formed by layered cylindrical arrays of circular rods symmetrically distributed on each of concentric circular rings, is presented for both of scalar-wave formulation and full-wave formulation. The method uses the T-matrix of a single circular rod, the reflection and transmission matrices for a cylindrica...

Given an uncountable regular cardinal κ, a partial order is κstationarily layered if the collection of regular suborders of P of cardinality less than κ is stationary in Pκ(P). We show that weak compactness can be characterized by this property of partial orders by proving that an uncountable regular cardinal κ is weakly compact if and only if every partial order satisfying the κ-chain conditio...

This paper provides the initial threshold to building of more complex system having reversible sequential circuits as a primitive component and which can execute more complicated operations using quantum computers. The reversible circuits form the basic building block of quantum computers as all quantum operations are reversible. The important reversible gates used for reversible logic synthesi...

Abstract We use thin layers of exfoliated black phosphorus to realize back-gated field-effect transistors in which the Si/SiO 2 substrate is exploited as gate electrode. To prevent detrimental effect air exposure devices are protected by Poly(methyl methacrylate). report observation an improved contact resistance at interface between layered material and metal electrical conditioning. also demo...
