In advance longwall mining, the safety of mine network, production rate, and consequently, economic conditions of a mine are dependent on the stability conditions of gate roadways. The gate roadway stability is a function of two important factors: 1) characteristics of the excavation damaged zone (EDZ) above the gate roadway and 2) loading effect due to the caving zone (CZ) above the longwall w...

In this paper, we propose a new heterostructure dual material gate junctionless field-effect transistor (H-DMG-JLFET), with negative differential resistance (NDR) characteristic. The drain and channel material are silicon and source material is germanium. The gate electrode near the source is larger. A dual gate material technique is used to achieve upward band bending in order to access n-i-p-...

Algorithmic Techniques for Nanometer VLSI Design and Manufacturing Closure. (May 2008) Shiyan Hu, B.S., Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics; M.S., Polytechnic University, Brooklyn, NY Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Jiang Hu As Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) technology moves to the nanoscale regime, design and manufacturing closure becomes very difficult to achieve due to i...

This paper presents a single-stage Vernier Time-to-Digital Converter (VTDC) that utilizes the dynamic-logic phase detector. The zero dead-zone characteristic of this phase detector allows for the single-stage VTDC to deliver sub-gate delay time resolution. The single-stage VTDC has been designed in 0.13 μm CMOS technology. The simulation results demonstrate a linear input-output characteristic ...

In this paper, an instruction-level energy model is proposed for the data-path of very long instruction word (VLIW) pipelined processors that can be used to provide accurate power consumption information during either an instruction-level simulation or power-oriented scheduling at compile time. The analytical model takes into account several software-level parameters (such as instruction orderi...

In this paper, the electrical performance of double gate organic field effecttransistor (DG-OFET) are thoroughly investigated and feasibility of the deviceas an efficient biosensor is comprehensively assessed. The introduced deviceprovides better gate control over the channel, yielding better charge injectionproperties from source to channel and providing higher on-state...

In today’s dynamic marketplace, companies are under strong pressure to introduce new products for long-term survival with their competitors. Besides, every company cannot cope up progressively or immediately with the market requirements due to knowledge dynamics being experienced in competitive milieu. Increased competition and reduced product life cycles put force upon companies to develop new...
