Charge-based modeling of ultra narrow junctionless cylindrical nanowire FETs

Farzan Jazaeri

This brief proposes an analytical approach to model the DC electrical behavior of extremely narrow cylindrical junctionless nanowire field-effect transistors (JL-NW-FETs). The model includes explicit expressions, taking into account the first-order perturb ...

Cryogenic CMOS Circuits and Systems: Challenges and Opportunities in Designing the Electronic Interface for Quantum Processors

Edoardo Charbon

Quantum computing could potentially offer faster solutions for some of today's classically intractable problems using quantum processors as computational support for quantum algorithms [1]. Quantum processors, in the most frequent embodiment, comprise an a ...

Work fluctuations in the active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particle model

Francesco Cagnetta

We study the large deviations of the power injected by the active force for an active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particle (AOUP), free or in a confining potential. For the free-particle case, we compute the rate function analytically in d-dimensions from a saddle- ...

Seeded Multimode Quasi-Phase-Matching in All-Optically Poled Silicon Nitride Waveguides

Camille Sophie Brès, Edgars Nitiss, Ozan Yakar

We demonstrate seeding-enabled all-optical poling of silicon nitride waveguides as short as 5 mm, and account for quasi-phase-matching (QPM) inside the waveguide between the fundamental mode of pump and higher order second-harmonic modes. ...

Control-Free Mechanical Oscillator Powered by Shape Memory Alloys

Yves Perriard, Paolo Germano, Thomas Guillaume Martinez, Sean Thomas

Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) based actuators have been commonly used in applications that require being compact and lightweight. In this paper, the inherent stiffness of a flexure-based linear guide is used to create a bias-spring SMA actuator which further re ...

On The Singular Set In The Thin Obstacle Problem: Higher-Order Blow-Ups And The Very Thin Obstacle Problem

Xavier Fernandez-Real Girona

We consider the singular set in the thin obstacle problem with weight vertical bar x(n +1)vertical bar(a) for a epsilon (-1, 1), which arises as the local extension of the obstacle problem for the fractional Laplacian (a nonlocal problem). We develop a ref ...

Probing the topology of the quantum analog of a classical skyrmion

Frédéric Mila, Jeanne Colbois

In magnetism, skyrmions correspond to classical three-dimensional spin textures characterized by a topological invariant that keeps track of the winding of the magnetization in real space, a property that cannot be easily generalized to the quantum case si ...

Foucault pendulum properties of spherical oscillators

Simon Nessim Henein, Ilan Vardi, Patrick Robert Flückiger

In 1851 Léon Foucault created a sensation with his pendulum providing a direct demonstration of the turning of the Earth. This simple device consists of a pendulum which is launched in a purely planar orbit. Following Mach's principle of inertia, the mass ...

Finite-Level Quantization Procedures for Construction and Decoding of Polar Codes

Emre Telatar, Yunus Inan

We consider finite-level, symmetric quantization procedures for construction and decoding of polar codes. Whether polarization occurs in the presence of quantization is not known in general. In [1], it is shown that a simple three-level quantization proced ...
