High-Fidelity Modeling of Single Molecule Quantum Electronic Devices

Lyshevski S.E., Rochester Institute of Technology, US

Departing from two-terminal molecular electronic devices, this paper examines multi-terminal MEdevices. These devices are envisioned to be utilized in emerging molecular gates (Mgates) and neuronal hypercells for expected molecular integrated circuits. High-fidelity modeling and heterogeneous [...]

Modeling a plane 3 DOF compliant micromanipulator

Verotti M., University of Rome “La Sapienza”, IT

In the present work, a new MBS (Multi-Body System) code has been dedicated to the static and dynamic analysis of micro-compliant mechanisms. Although the inertial force become more and more negligible, the smaller becomes the [...]

CFD-Assisted Design and Optimization of a Pharmacokinetic Microfluidic System

Moeini Sedeh M., Khodadadi J.M., Hong J.W., Cramer K.A., Hamon M., Auburn University, US

In this research, a microfluidic system was designed and optimized to carry out in vitro pharmacokinetic studies of drug candidates in the liver. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) was called on to assist in the system [...]

New model of seven layers in PEMFC

Rakhshanpouri S., Rowshanzamir S., School of Chemical Engineering, IR

This model is an isothermal, isobar, one-dimensional and steady-state model for a polymer electrolyte fuel cell with a 117 Nafion membrane that considers seven-layer of fuel cell. In former years, Springer and colleagues presented the [...]

Computational Modeling of Electromagnetically Induced Heating of Magnetic Nanoparticle Materials for Hyperthermic Cancer Treatment

Rast L., Harrison J.G., University of Alabama at Birmingham, US

We present results on the computational modeling of electromagnetically induced heating for the purpose of hyperthermic cancer treatment with magnetic nanoparticle fluids. Magnetic hyperthermia can therefore be used for direct targeting and destruction of tumors [...]

Analytical Modeling of the Subthreshold Electrostatics of Nanoscale GAA Square Gate MOSFETs

Vishvakarma S.K., Fjeldly T.A., Norwegian University of Science and Technology, NO

An analytical model is presented for the 3-D electrostatics of lightly doped GAA square gate MOSFETs operating in the subthreshold domain. The model is based on the assumption of parabolic potential distributions in the directions [...]

Electrical Characteristics of 16-nm-Gate Multi-Gate-and-Multi-Fin Devices and Digital Circuits

Cheng H-W, National Chiao Tung University, TW

In this work, we estimate electrical characteristics including threshold voltage (Vth) and gate capacitance (Cg) of 16-nm-gate multi-gate-and-multi-fin FETs, and delay time of an inverter and static noise margin (SNM) of a 6T SRAM. Large-scale [...]

Analytic Modeling of BioFET as a pH Sensor

Song Y., Guan Y., Zhang J., Zhang X., He J., Zhang J., Zhang X., Lin X., Peking University, CN

In this paper, the analytic modeling of the BioFET as a pH sensor has been developed from the complete surface potential equation and channel expression. Combining the physical MOSFET theory with electrochemistry of the electrolyte, [...]

Design and Fabrication of a Low Power Electro-thermal V-shape Actuator With Large Displacement

Khazaai J., Oakland University, US

We propose the design and microfabrication of a V-shape MEMS electro-thermal actuator featuring large displacement generation and low power consumption. Electro-thermal MEMS actuators are suitable for a variety of applications where large forces and long [...]
