Nonlocal spin injection has been recognized as an efficient mechanism for creation of pure spin currents not tied to the electrical charge transfer. Here we demonstrate experimentally that it can induce coherent magnetization dynamics, which can be utilized for the implementation of novel microwave nano-sources for spintronic and magnonic applications. We show that such sources exhibit a small ...

A non-volatile floating-gate MOSFET based trimmable current cell suitable for use in a current steering DAC and implemented in CMOS technology is presented. The current source can be programmed to an accuracy corresponding to 12-bit resolution using either hot electron injection to add charge to the floating-gate or hot hole injection to remove charge. The output current from the circuit can be...

Received: 21/11/03; accepted: 08/12/03 ABSTRACT We reviewed the medical and economic burden of thalassaemia major with emphasis on prenatal diagnosis for disease prevention as the most economic health care policy...

Do people treat computers as social actors? To answer this question, researchers havemeasured the extent to which computers elicit social responses in people, such as impression management strategies for influencing the perceptions of others. But on this question findings in the literature conflict. To make sense of these findings, the present study proposes a dual-process model of impression m...

One of the causes of aviation accidents is lack of overview and analysis of the data particularly obtained from its maintenance operation performance. The aircraft maintenance system of an airline is a complex structure with information flow involving various stakeholders ensuring aircraft airworthiness while adhering to several regulatory standards, policies and procedures of Federal Aviation ...
