Melt-mixed thermoplastic polymer/carbon nanotube composites for thermoelectric applications

Pötschke P., Krause B., Luo J., Leibniz Institute of Polymer Research Dresden (IPF), DE

Thermoelectric generators (TEG), which can convert waste heat directly into electricity, are one type of promising energy harvesting devices. The thermoelectric (TE) effect (also called Seebeck effect) describes an electrical potential (voltage ∆U) induced by [...]

Passive Elements Modeling in Microwave/Millimeter-wave application

Wang Y., Yao J., Luo J., Tang Y., Tsinghua University, CN

Passive elements (e.g., transmission line, transformer and balun) are widely used in Microwave/ Millimeter-wave (MMW) applications. Compared with time-consuming Electromagnetic (EM) simulation, equivalent-circuit compact models for these passive elements are more preferable for IC designers. [...]

Novel Sensing Array Nanomaterials: Molecularly-Mediated Assemblies of Nanoparticles

Zhong C-J, Lu S., Luo J., Wang L., Shi X., Schadt M., Hao W., Luo J., State University of New York at Binghamton, US

Nanostructured sensing arrays combined with pattern-recognition analysis are expected to provide new opportunities for enhancing the design of sensor materials in terms of sensitivity and selectivity. We report findings of an investigation of nanostructured sensing [...]

A Comparative Study of Double-Gate and Surrounding-Gate MOSFETs in Strong Inversion and Accumulation Using an Analytical Model

Chen Y., Luo J., University of California-Berkeley, US

An analytical model for the electric characteristics of ultrathin double-gate and surrounding-gate MOSFETs in strong inversion and accumulation is presented. The analytical solutions to the 1-D simplified Poisson's equation in both Cartesian and cylindrical coordinates [...]
