BACKGROUND Many health care systems now allow patients to access their electronic health record (EHR) notes online through patient portals. Medical jargon in EHR notes can confuse patients, which may interfere with potential benefits of patient access to EHR notes. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to develop and evaluate the usability and content quality of NoteAid, a Web-based natural lan...

Our tale begins in 1961, when Professor John Tate was invited by John Solomon to deliver a series of lectures at Haverford College on the subject of “Rational Points on Cubic Curves” [8]. Quoting from the preface to [6], “these lectures, intended for junior and senior mathematics majors, were recorded, transcribed, and printed in mimeograph form. Since that time they have been widely distribute...

Preface The present set of lecture notes are prepared for the course " Statistik 2 " at the University of Copenhagen. It is a revised version of notes prepared in connection with a series of lectures at the Swedish summerschool in Särö, June 11–17, 1979. The notes do by no means give a complete account of the theory of contingency tables. They are based on the idea that the graph theoretic meth...

—A 48 GHz fully integrated two stages power amplifier (PA) for mm-wave application is presented in this paper. The PA is implemented in 90 nm LP CMOS technology with Cascode topology to enhance gain and stability. The single ended PA achieves around 15 dB small signal gain, 4.5 dBm saturated output power and a peak power added efficiency of 9% in measurement. Patterned ground shield coplanar tr...

The Internet is rapidly changing from a set of wires and switches that carry packets into a sophisticated infrastructure that delivers a set of complex value-added services to end users. Services can range from bit transport all the way up to distributed value-added services like video teleconferencing, data mining, and distributed interactive simulations. Before such services can be supported ...

One of the most important requirements that RF and microwave power amplifiers designed for radiocommunication systems must meet is an optimum power added efficiency (PAE) or an optimal combination of PAE and linearity. A harmonic active load–pull system which allows the control of the first three harmonic frequencies of the signal coming out of the transistor under test is a very useful tool to...

A Class F power amplifier (PA) at 2.5GHz has been designed and fabricated. Test results show 15.7 dB gain with 75.75% power added efficiency (PAE ), at an input level of 25 dBm. The design procedure is presented, with various issues illustrated and addressed. A new method is proposed to obtain the optimum load and source impedances without iterations, which would usually be necessary.

This paper presents a new procedure to design of high efficiency class E power amplifiers (PAs) using nonlinear transistors. The active device (MESFET-ATF34143) has been investigated and load harmonic networks have also been designed to match the requirement. By using the new procedure, the power added efficiency (PAE) of PAs could be increased to over 70%. The effect of the stabilized resistor...

A 36-element monolithic grid amplifier has been fabricated. The active elements are pairs of heterojunction-bipolar-transistors. Measurements show a peak gain of 5dB at 40GHz with a 3-dB bandwidth of 1.8 GHz(4.5%). Here we also report comparisons of p a t t e r n s and tuning curves between the measurements and theory. The grid includes base stabilizing capacitors which result in a highly stabl...

Abstract Light-sheet microscopy is a powerful method for imaging small translucent samples in vivo, owing to its unique combination of fast speeds, large field view, and low phototoxicity. This chapter briefly reviews state-of-the-art technology variations light-sheet microscopy. We review recent examples optogenetics with discuss some current bottlenecks horizons light sheet all-optical physio...
