This paper presents a hybrid CMOS-CNFET voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) with low power dissipation and linear response over a wide control voltage range. The hybrid circuit is based on PTM 32nm low power CMOS devices and 32nm CNFET devices with different threshold voltages. The VCO frequency and power dissipation are investigated for CNFET parameters such as number of nano-tubes, gate oxide...

Butachlor (BUT) is a chloroacetanilide herbicide widely applied to rice paddies to control annual grass and broad-leaf weeds. A BUT-degrading bacterial strain (PK) was isolated from paddy soils. Biochemical and 16S rRNA sequencing characteristics confirmed the strain as Pseudomonas aeruginosa (99% resemblance). The isolate dissipated BUT (100 μg/mL) in an M9 liquid medium with a rate of 0.5 ± 0...

Nature, in the form of dissipation, inevitably intervenes in our efforts to control a quantum system. In this talk we show that although we cannot, in general, compensate for dissipation by coherent control of the system, such effects are not always counterproductive; for example, the transformation from a thermal (mixed) state to a cold condensed (pure state) can only be achieved by non-unitar...

recently the stepped spillways have been used as an appropriate solution for energy dissipation. in the present study, siahbisheh dam spillway is simulated by using computational fluid dynamic (cfd), in which the mixture method and reynolds stresses model (rsm) turbulence model is used. in the first modeling series the over all steppes slope is constant. the number of the steps is increased to ...
