Gallium Nitride (GaN)-based high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) are emerging as promising contenders to replace existing Silicon and Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) devices in the radio-frequency/microwave power amplifiers and high-power switching applications. Along with the fast [...]

Hot Carrier Effect and Oxide Reliability of T-FinFET Devices

, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,
Hot-carrier effect and oxide reliability of CMOS T-FinFET with 2.1nm-thick gate-SiO2 were investigated. It was found that hot-carrier immunity improves as the T-FinFET fin width (body thickness) decreases, which facilitates gate-length scaling, while it is [...]

Intraspinal administration of TiO2 nanowired cerebrolysin with mesenchymal stem cells has superior neuroprotective effects on cord pathology and functional outcome following a focal spinal cord trauma

, , , , , , , , , , , ,
Military personnel are often victims of spinal cord injury (SCI) for which there is no suitable treatment available. Thus, exploring new therapeutic avenues using select combination of novel neuroprotective agents is the need of the [...]
