Subthreshold Operation of Schottky Barrier Silicon Nanowire FET

Yoo S.K., Ahn J.Y., Yang S., Lee J-H., Gwangju Institute of Science & Technology (GIST), KR

This paper presents that the sensitivity of Schottky barrier silicon nanowires FET (SB-SiNWFET) is strongly modulated by the applied back gate voltage, and reveals that the operation in the subthreshold regime gives the significant enhancement [...]

New Finite Element Method Modeling for contractile Forces of Cardiomyocytes on Hybrid Biopolymer Microcantilevers

Na K., Kim J., Yang S., Yoon E-S, Yoon Y.M., Yoon E-S, Yoon Y.M., Korea Institute of Science and Technology, KR

Measurement of magnitude and frequency of cardiomyocyte contraction is significant not only for real-time monitoring of the toxicity of chemicals on cardiomyocyte, but also for understanding of the mechanisms of heart failure. Researches on measuring [...]

An Embedded Atom Method for Alloy Nanoparticles

Shan B., Hyun J., Wang L., Yang S., Kapur N., Nicholas J.B., Nanostellar Inc., US

We present the development and application of a high-accuracy embedded atom method (EAM) potential for the simulation of metal alloy nanoparticles. The potential was parametrized by a large set of density functional theory (DFT) calculations [...]

Preparation and Property of Novel CMC-tactile Sensors

Chen X., Yang S., Motojima S., Gifu University, JP

Carbon microcoils/nanocoils (CMC) have an interesting anisotropic morphology of 3D-herical/spiral structure such as a DNA or proteins. The CMC have double-helix or single-helix structure with a coil diameter of 0.05-10 _m and a coil pitch [...]
