    Surface Potential Modelling Based Performance Analysis of Gate Engineered Trapezoidal Trigate Tunnel FET

    No full text
    Abstract: In this paper, a three dimensional (3-D) analytical model of surface potential has been derived for gate engineered trapezoidal trigate Tunnel Field Effect Transistor (TFET). The model has been obtained by assuming parabolic approximation of the potential profile and solving 3-D Poisson equation using appropriate boundary conditions. The device considered in this work is silicon based TFET with gate composed of two materials with different work functions. The low work-function material is placed close to source and drain region while high work-function material is placed in between them. This will result in enhancing the tunneling in the source/channel interface region while reducing the electric field in the drain region. Trigate devices have been found to enhance the device performance at nanoscale, however, Trigate device fabricated by Intel have been found to have trapezoidal shape rather than expected rectangular shape. In this work, we have included the effect of different inclination angles of sides on the device performance. The model has been verified by comparing the results with the simulation results obtained in ATLAS software.Published By: Blue Eyes Intelligence Engineering and Sciences Publication (BEIESP) © Copyright: All rights reserved

    Muhammad Nabeel Shafqat,1 Muhammad Aadil,2 Maria Shoaib31Department of Medicine, University of Medical Sciences “Serafin Ruiz de Zarate” Villa Clara (UCMVC), Villa Clara, Cuba; 2Department of Psychiatry, Rush University Medical Center, Chicago, IL, USA; 3Department of Medicine, Dow Medical College, Dow University of Health Sciences, Karachi, PakistanWe read with great interest the currently published article written by Pederson and Brook1 entitled “Sleep disturbance linked to suicidal ideation in postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome”. Awareness of postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) has increased in recent years. However, sleep disturbance has not been thoroughly investigated as a cause of increased suicidal risk in patients with POTS. We would like to applaud the authors on conducting this novel cross-sectional study to understand and highlight the potential relationship between sleep disturbances and increased risk of suicide in patients suffering from POTS.1View the original paper by Pederson and Brook

    Aitzaz Munir,1 Muhammad Aadil,2 Ahmad Rehan Khan3 1Department of Psychiatry, Howard University, Washington, DC, USA; 2Department of Psychiatry, Rush University Medical Center, Chicago, IL, USA; 3Department of Psychiatry, University of North Dakota, Grand Forks, ND, USA We would like to applaud the author for conducting such an important study by performing a comprehensive assessment of suicide and its association with Lyme-associated diseases (LADs).1 It is the first study of its kind, and it raises a need for further investigation on this subject. Suicide is a major health care issue in the USA, contributing to almost 42,773 deaths in the USA in 2014.2 There is no data available specific to suicide associated with LAD. Dr Bransfield inferred the possible prevalence of suicide associated with LAD by an indirect method which revealed that 414,540 patients with LAD have suicidal ideation, 31,100 attempt suicide and a total of 1,244 commit suicide in the USA per year from LAD.1,2  View the original paper by Bransfield.&nbsp

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    No full text
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    THE ROOT OF ENVIRONMENTAL AND HISTORICAL TRAUMA OF COLONIZATION IN LITERATURE

    No full text
    Abstract: The goal of literary and environmental studies is to investigate both social commitments and methods. Following a similar path, eco-criticism begins with the belief that imagination and inquiry can strengthen, energize, and drive concern in order to significantly advance our understanding of environmental issues. This range of forms is consistent with other environmental humanities fields' perspectives on environmental phenomena, such as ethics, history, religious studies, and humanistic geography. A wide range of environmental issues must be addressed, with qualitative and quantitative reflections put on hold. Humankind's vision, will, and belief are the foundational discoveries and reinforced regimes. Take some time to appreciate nature's magic, which only manifests when humans adapt and remain committed to environmental restoration. Environment consists of all living and non living things which surround us as a supporting thing to survive the life better. Keywords: Literature, Environment, human relationship with nature, colonization, fiction, climate. Title: THE ROOT OF ENVIRONMENTAL AND HISTORICAL TRAUMA OF COLONIZATION IN LITERATURE Author: S.
