Abstract Stability and precision of sequential activity in the entorhinal cortex (EC) is crucial for encoding spatially guided behavior memory. These sequences are driven by constantly evolving sensory inputs persist despite a noisy background. In realistic computational model medial EC (MEC) microcircuit, we show that intrinsic neuronal properties network mechanisms interact with theta oscilla...

In this work, we present an experimental demonstration of real-time transoceanic space-division multiplexed transmission with coupled-core multicore fibers. To compensate for modal coupling in the fibers, implement multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) digital signal processing based on field programmable gate array circuits. Using optical receivers a MIMO, demonstrate 16-channel wavelength-div...

A complete procedure for the design of W-band low noise amplifier in MMIC technology is presented. The design is based on a simultaneously power and noise matched technique. For implementing the method, scalable bilateral transistor model parameters should be first extracted. The model is also used for transmission line utilized in the amplifier circuit. In the presented method, input/output ma...

Continual evolution of the CMOS technology requires thinner gate dielectric to maintain high performance. However, when moving into the sub-65 nm CMOS generation, the traditional poly-Si gate approach cannot effectively reduce the gate thickness further due to the poly-depletion effect. Fully silicided metal gate (FUSI) has been proven to be a promising solution. FUSI metal gate can significant...

objective: different categories are available for estimating of radiation dose. radioisotopes with the same energy and almost the same physical properties have similar effects. monte carlo technique is a computerized method based on mathematical simulation of physical processes. the main purpose of this study is to show that beta particles are not able to penetrate deep into the water. also dif...
