The linear super-Burnett coefficient gives corrections to the diffusion equation in the form of higher derivatives of the density. Like the diffusion coefficient, it can be expressed in terms of integrals of correlation functions, but involving four different times. The power law decay of correlations in real gases (with many moving particles) and the random Lorentz gas (with one moving particl...

This paper deals with the design of novel sub-1-V bandgap reference circuit using only MOS transistors in 0.18 μm CMOS technology, for a supply voltage of 1.8V. The circuit produces a voltage reference of 466.5 mV at 27C with a temperature coefficient of 28.4 ppm/C in the range of -20 to +120C. The power supply rejection of circuit is -30 dB at 8 KHz and this rejection further increase to -50 d...

We generate photon pairs in a-Si:H microrings using a CW pump, and find the Kerr coefficient of a-Si:H to be 3.73 ± 0.25 × 10-17m2/W. By measuring the Q factor with coupled power we find that the loss in the a-Si:H micro-rings scales linearly with power, and therefore cannot originate from two photon absorption. Theoretically comparing a-Si:H and c-Si micro-ring pair sources, we show that the h...

Experimental results show that in large complex networks (such as internet, social or biological networks) there exists a tendency to connect elements which have a common neighbor. In theoretical random graph models, this tendency is described by the clustering coefficient being bounded away from zero. Complex networks also have power-law degree distributions and short average distances (small ...

A method for the rapid design of field programmable gate array (FPGA)-based discrete cosine transform (DCT) approximations is presented that can be used to control the coding gain, mean square error (MSE), quantization noise, hardware cost, and power consumption by optimizing the coefficient values and datapath wordlengths. Previous DCT design methods can only control the quality of the DCT app...

The paper deals with analysis of loading conditions on damping torque coefficient and synchronizing coefficient in SMIB system and design of Delta-Omega type of damping controller for damping of power oscillations in the system. Effect of variation of loading on synchronizing torque and damping torque coefficients has been investigated in detail. A new design approach for optimizing the paramet...

Two sets of hydrogenated microcrystalline silicon thin-film samples were prepared by Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (PECVD) technique at different deposition conditions of excited power and pressure. The correlation between the crystalline volume fraction for the samples determined from Raman spectra and the excited power, pressure, absorption coefficient, refractive index and optica...
