We study the concept of a basic building block for circuits using differential signaling and being based on graphene field effect devices. We fabricated a number of top-gated graphene FETs using commercially available graphene and employing electron beam lithography along with other semiconductor manufacturing processes. These devices were then systematically measured in an automated setup and ...

Many single-electron devices and circuits that realize CMOS-like digital logic were proposed so far (Takahashi, Ono, Fujiwara, & Inokawa, 2002). However, the single-electron circuit technology should aim at developing computing systems that perform information processing by using singleelectron phenomena (Morie, & Amemiya, 2006). Because their operation principles are completely different from ...

Background Custom made foot orthoses remain the ‘gold standard’ because the orthotic geometry is tailored to each patient’s foot. However, due to their reduced cost, in some contexts there has been an increasing preference for prefabricated orthoses. Research has failed to identify major differences between the two types of orthosis [1-4]. This project aimed to design, develop and evaluate a ne...

The main challenge during night-time driving is the visibility of the road ahead. The major challenge rests in controlling accidents during night as the night conditions differ from the day in environment conditions, vehicle lighting etc. The reduced cost of cameras and optical devices helped in installing front-mounted intelligent systems for identifying forward collision avoidance and mitigat...

In the last decade Micromechanical components for communication applications has been fabricated via IC-compatible MEMS technologies. In fact, its most important impact is not at the component level, but rather at the system level, by offering alternative transceiver architectures that reduce power consumption and enhance performance. In this paper a mixer-filter for AM frequency receiver with ...

o bjectives: the aim of this study was to investigate the displacement and stress distri- bution during surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion under different surgical conditions with tooth- and bone-borne devices. materials and methods: three-dimensional (3d) finite element model of a maxilla was constructed and an expansion force of 100 n was applied to the left and right molars and pr...
