A Silicon tunnel FET with Si1-x Gex source is investigated and optimized for improved performance. In order to optimize the device performance, Germanium mole fraction and the length of the SiGe region is varied and the optimum values are obtained. Moreover, the source/channel hetero-junction is assumed graded. The grading distance is varied from zero (abrupt hetero-junction) to total channel l...

like myasthenia gravis, congenital myasthenic syndrome (cms) produces weakness and fatigue caused by problems at the neuromuscular junction but while mg is autoimmune, cms is an inherited disease caused by defective genes. genes defective in cms are required for making the ach receptor or other components of the neuromuscular junction. cmss are inherited in an ar, or, less frequently, ad manner...

2-Aminoethoxydiphenyl borate (2-APB), an inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate receptor modulator, inhibits capacitive current transients measured in normal rat kidney and human embryonic kidney 293 cells, an indication of blocking gap junction channels between these cells. Here, we used the dual whole-cell patch-clamp method to study the actions of 2-APB on gap junction channels formed by selected conne...

In this paper, we got femtoliter volume droplet by splitting of nanoliter droplet at a T-junction channel, and the volume of the daughter droplet was not limited by the channel size. We use this droplet splitting system to entrap several fluorescent nanospheres, which show great potential to manipulate and observe single nanoparticles independently. The influences of fluid flow rate, channel ge...
