complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (cmos) technology has been the industry standard to implement very large scale integrated (vlsi) devices for the last two decades. due to the consequences of miniaturization of such devices (i.e. increasing switching speeds, increasing complexity and decreasing power consumption), it is essential to replace them with a new technology. quantum-dot cellular...

The craze for miniaturization has swept o’er most every nation, but should a hand e’er so slightly tremble no micro-machine can it assemble: and so all those really small bits leave the technicians in fits and the hope for a lab on a chip might seem frightfully flip. Yet, while optical forces are weak they provide the control that we seek. When light’s holographically defined, HOT opportunities...

We report a specially configured non-Hermitian optical microcavity, imposing spatially imbalanced gain-loss profile, to host an exclusively proposed next nearest neighbor resonances coupling scheme. Adopting scattering matrix (S-matrix) formalism, the effect of interplay between such proposed resonance interactions and the incorporated nonHermiticity in the microcavity is analyzed drawing a spe...

The application of femtosecond four-wave mixing to the study of fundamental properties of diluted magnetic semiconductors ((s,p)-d hybridization, spin-flip scattering) is described, using experiments on GaMnAs as a prototype III-Mn-V system.  Spectrally-resolved and time-resolved experimental configurations are described, including the use of zero-background autocorrelation techniques for pulse...

Low scaling technology makes a significant reduction in dimension and supply voltage, and lead to new challenges about power consumption such as increasing nodes sensitivity over radiation-induced soft errors in VLSI circuits. In this area, different design methods have been proposed to low power flip-flops and various research studies have been done to reach a suitable hardened flip-flops. In ...

Micropixelated blue (470 nm) and ultraviolet (370 nm) AlInGaN light emitting diode ('micro-LED') arrays have been fabricated in flip-chip format with different pixel diameters (72 microm and 30 microm at, respectively, 100 and 278 pixels/mm(2)). Each micro-LED pixel can be individually-addressed and the devices possess a specially designed n-common contact incorporated to ensure uniform current...

The proposed two types of multi-valued D flip-flops are NMAX-TG D flip-flop and NMIN-TG D flip-flop A NMAX-TG D flip-flop and a NMIN D flip-flop are composed of the components such as NMAX D flip-flops, NMIN D flip-flops and T-gate circuits. In the simulations, sampling frequencies of NMAX-TG D flip-flop and NMIN-TG D flip-flop are measured around 500 kHz and 1 MHz, respectively. The PDP parame...
