the one photon absorption (opa) cross section of a current carrying two-orbital quantum dot (qd) with strong electron-phonon interaction (polaron regime) is considered. using the self-consistent non-equilibrium hartree-fock (hf) approximation, we determine the dependence of opa cross section on the applied bias voltage, the strength of effective electron-electron interaction, and level spacing ...

Power consumption is a growing problem in modern digital design, and due to the quadratic relationship between power consumption and supply voltage, significant low-power research has focused on reducing the supply voltage. Adaptive gate-level voltage scaling (AGVS) is a novel design technique which dynamically adjusts the supply voltage at the gate-level to maximize energy efficiency. We propo...

controller design and optimization problems, with more than one objective, are referred as multiple objectives or multiple attributed problems. in this paper, a novel method is proposed for designing optimum pid controller that is called genetic multiple attributed decision making method (gmadm). this method is newer than the previous methods and in this paper some options are considered that h...

This article proposed a novel topology of dynamic voltage regulator using transformer and PWM multi-level AC/AC converter. In this paper for finding the best value of duty ratio for switches to minimize the THD, the GA algorithm has been used and THD output voltage is assumed to be fitness function. The proposed voltage regulator employs multi-level AC/AC converter to generate compensation volt...

In this paper, several optimum structures of a cascaded multilevel inverter is proposed. This optimization is based on generation a constant number of output voltage levels by using minimum number of power switches or dc voltage sources or minimum amount of blocked voltage by power switches. In addition, the optimum structure for a constant number of dc voltage sources by using minimum number o...

Multilevel voltage source inverters have several advantages compare to traditional voltage source inverter. These inverters reduce cost, get better voltage waveform and decrease Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) by increasing the levels of output voltage. In this paper Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) methods are used to find the switching angles for achieving to the m...

This paper develops an effective control framework for DC voltage control and power-sharing of multi-terminal DC (MTDC) grids based on an optimal power flow (OPF) procedure and the voltage-droop control. In the proposed approach, an OPF algorithm is executed at the secondary level to find optimal reference of DC voltages and active powers of all voltage-regulating converters. Then, the voltage ...
