The conversion between the human action and electrical energy is provided by a hand-crank electromagnetic (EM) converter. The AC voltage generated by the EM converter has time-varying amplitude and frequency and is rectified by a metal–oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor-based voltage doubler active rectifier circuit. The harvested energy is efficiently stored into multiple capacitors by the innovative sequential charging of storage capacitors technique, and used to power a micro electro mechanical system thermopile sensor with related signal conditioning electronics plus a liquid-crystal display to visualise the temperature readings. With a force of about 29.4 N over 2 cm applied to the EM converter, the power management circuit is able to extract an energy of 27.5 mJ and power the non-contact temperature measurement system for about 33 s.","PeriodicalId":120076,"journal":{"name":"IET Circuits Devices Syst.","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115628551","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A model of two-dimensional multi-tunnelling junction (2D-MTJ) can explain the blockade characteristic of this barrier.

The results show that simulated current–voltage curves achieve a reasonable fit with the measured data and the present model can be used to study the PtSi/porous Si Schottky barrier behaviour. In accordance with both the studies, Coulomb blockade phenomenon is observed in current oscillation and single-electron effect of this device at low temperatures (5 K) is justified using the 2D-MTJ model. In addition, it indicates that by increasing the current value with temperature and for high drain voltages, PtSi/porous Si Schottky barrier behaves like a single island single-electron tunnelling (SET) junction as previously reported by Raissi et al.","PeriodicalId":120076,"journal":{"name":"IET Circuits Devices Syst.","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134277947","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Graphene on Si/SiO2 substrate was mounted in a shielded four terminal-pair (4TP) adaptor which enabled direct connection to a calibrated precision impedance analyser for measurements. Good agreement is observed for the DC four-probe resistance and the 4TP resistance at 40 Hz, both yielding R ≈ 104 Ω. In general, the apparent graphene channel electromagnetic properties are found to be strongly influenced by the substrate parasitic capacitance and resistance, particularly for high-frequencies f > 1 MHz. A phenomenological lumped-parameter equivalent circuit model is presented which matches the frequency response of the graphene 4TP impedance device over approximately seven decades of the frequency range of the applied transport alternating current. Based on this model, it is shown for the first time, that the intrinsic graphene channel resistance of the 4TP device is ‘frequency-independent’ with R G ≃ 105 Ω or sheet resistance of approximately 182 Ω/□. The parasitic substrate impedance of the device is found to be R P ≃ 2.2 Ω and C P ≃ 600 pF. These results suggest that our new RF 4TP method is in good agreement with the conventional DC four-probe method for measuring the intrinsic sheet resistance of single-atom thick materials and could potentially open up new applications in RF electronics, AC quantum Hall effect metrology and sensors based on graphene 4TP devices operating over a broad range of frequencies.","PeriodicalId":120076,"journal":{"name":"IET Circuits Devices Syst.","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-02-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130588694","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The single-electron energy spectrum of this system, the Hofstadter butterfly has been the subject of theoretical and experimental investigations for the past two decades. Experimental observation of these unusual spectra in semiconductor nanostructures, however, met with only limited success. The fractal nature of the butterfly spectrum was finally observed in 2013, thanks to the unique electronic properties of graphene. Here, the authors present an overview of the theoretical understanding of Hofstadter butterflies in monolayer and bilayer graphene. First, they briefly discuss the energy spectra in conventional semiconductor systems. The electronic properties of monolayer and bilayer graphene are then presented. Theoretical background on the Moire pattern in graphene and its application in the magnetoconductance probe that resulted in graphene butterflies are explained. They have also touched upon the important role of electron–electron interaction in the butterfly pattern in graphene. Experimental efforts to investigate this aspect of fractal butterflies have just begun. They conclude by discussing the future prospects of butterfly search, especially for interacting Dirac fermions in graphene.","PeriodicalId":120076,"journal":{"name":"IET Circuits Devices Syst.","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-08-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133408169","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on the proposed scheme, we have derived a parallel and pipeline structure for multilevel lifting two-dimensional discrete wavelet transform (DWT). The proposed structure involves regular data-flow and does not require frame-buffer, and calculates DWT levels concurrently. A theoretical comparison shows that the proposed structure for\u0000 J \u0000= 2 involves 1.25 times more multipliers and adders, 2\u0000 N \u0000more registers than those of existing folded block-based structure and offers 1.25 times higher throughput, where\u0000 N \u0000is the input-image width. Compared with similar existing parallel structure, the proposed structure requires the same number of multipliers and adders, 2.125\u0000 N \u0000less registers and offers the same throughput rate. Application specific integrated circuit synthesis result shows that the core of the proposed structure for 2-level DWT and image size (512 × 512) involves 41% less area-delay-product and 36% less energy-per-image than those of similar existing parallel structure.","PeriodicalId":120076,"journal":{"name":"IET Circuits Devices Syst.","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117704783","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
