Field effect transistors (FETs), incorporating metal-oxide nanofibers as the active conductive channel, have the potential for driving the widespread application of nanowire or nanofiber FETs-based electronics. Here we report on low voltage FETs with integrated electrospun In2O3-ZnO-ZnGa2O4 composite fiber channel layers and high-K dielectric (MgO)0.3-(Bi1.5Zn1.0Nb1.5O7)0.7 gate insulator and c...

An efficient approach for calculating the effective heat conductivity for a class of industrial composite materials, such as metal foams, fibrous glass materials, and the like, is discussed. These materials, used in insulation or in advanced heat exchangers, are characterized by a low volume fraction of the highly conductive material (glass or metal) having a complex, network-like structure and...

Polymer-assisted deposition method has been used to fabricate self-assembled epitaxial La0.67Ca0.33MnO3:NiO and La0.67Ca0.33MnO3:Co3O4 films on LaAlO3 substrates. Compared to pulsed-laser deposition method, polymer-assisted deposition provides a simpler and lower-cost approach to self-assembled composite films with enhanced low-field magnetoresistance effect. After the addition of NiO or Co3O4,...

Graphene/polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) composites were prepared using in-situ solvothermal reduction of graphene oxide in the PVDF solution. The electrical conductivity of the composites was greatly improved by doping with graphene sheets. The percolation threshold of such composite was determined to be 0.31 vol.%, being much smaller than that of the composites prepared via blending reduced gr...

We study a model of a covalent band insulator with on-site Coulomb repulsion at half filling using dynamical mean-field theory. Upon increasing the interaction strength the system undergoes a discontinuous transition from a correlated band insulator to a Mott insulator with hysteretic behavior at low temperatures. Increasing the temperature in the band insulator close to the insulator-insulator...

The electric field distribution of insulator surface is nonuniform, and the maximum visible around two terminals insulator. Using a microvaristor layer one methods control that can reduce stresses to prevent an extension discharges on complete flashover caused by subsequent development arcing. This study targets effect zinc oxide (ZnO) microvaristors along contaminated clean composite insulator...

 Abstract—The flashover voltage of insulator is relative to the distribution of the electric field. The distribution of the electric field on the insulator is contributed to the shape of insulator. For this, we must optimize the shape of insulator. In this paper, we use FEM, GA and HGAPSO for optimizing the shape of insulator. The tangential electric field and the area of insulator are optimiz...

Chromatin insulators are gene regulatory elements implicated in the establishment of independent chromatin domains. The gypsy insulator of D. melanogaster confers its activity through a protein complex that consists of three known components, Su(Hw), Mod(mdg4)2.2, and CP190. We have identified a factor, Drosophila Topoisomerase I-interacting RS protein (dTopors) that interacts with the insulato...
