Low scaling technology makes a significant reduction in dimension and supply voltage, and lead to new challenges about power consumption such as increasing nodes sensitivity over radiation-induced soft errors in VLSI circuits. In this area, different design methods have been proposed to low power flip-flops and various research studies have been done to reach a suitable hardened flip-flops. In ...

In this paper, Plug-in Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle (PFCEV) is considered with dual power sources including Fuel Cell (FC) and battery Energy Storage. In order to respond to a transient power demand, usually supercapacitor energy storage device is combined with fuel cell to create a hybrid system with high energy density of fuel cell and the high power density of battery. In order to simulate the...

We consider closed free tensionless strings in AdSd, calculate exactly the boundary/boundary string evolution kernel and find the string dynamics to be completely frozen. We interpret therefore the boundary configurations as Wilson loop operators in a confining phase. This is taken as an argument in favor to the dual weakly coupled abelian gauge theory being that of (d− 4)-forms in the (d− 1) d...

A single, free-running, dual-wavelength mode-locked, erbium-doped fibre laser was exploited to measure the absolute frequency of continuous-wave terahertz (CW-THz) radiation in real time using dual THz combs of photo-carriers (dual PC-THz combs). Two independent mode-locked laser beams with different wavelengths and different repetition frequencies were generated from this laser and were used t...

We demonstrate a dual-band Tm:ZBLAN fiber ring laser with synchronized Q-switched pulses and a dual-band simultaneous mode-locked Tm:ZBLAN fiber linear laser at 1.48 μm and 1.85 μm using a common graphene saturable absorber. OCIS codes: (060.2390) Fiber optics, infrared; (140.3540) Lasers, Q-switched; (140.4050) Mode-locked lasers

A high-speed triangular-modulated spread-spectrum clock generator using a fractional phase-locked loop is presented. The fractional division is implemented by a nested fractional topology, which is constructed from a dual-modulus divide-by-(N–1/16)/N divider to divide the VCO outputs as a first division period and a fractional control circuit to establish a second division period to cause the o...

A previous dual-task study (Capizzi, Sanabria, & Correa, 2012) showed that temporal orienting of attention was disrupted by performing a concurrent working memory task, while sequential effects were preserved. Here, we recorded event related potentials (ERPs) during single- and dual-task performance to investigate how this behavioural dissociation would be expressed in neural activity measures....

We report, to the best of our knowledge, the first demonstration of thermally controlled soliton mode-locked frequency comb generation in microresonators. By controlling the electric current through heaters integrated with silicon nitride microresonators, we demonstrate a systematic and repeatable pathway to single- and multi-soliton mode-locked states without adjusting the pump laser wavelengt...
