Main objectives of the reported -work are to investigate the effect of copper doping on morphology, compositional, structure and on opto-electrical properties of ZnO thin films. To achieve the mentioned objectives, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive X-Ray (EDX), X- Ray Diffraction (XRD), UV-vis techniques and the current-voltage (I-V) measurements -were performed. SEM result show a porous morphology. The % Cu concentration, determined by EDX analysis, are 0.66%, 3.73% and 6.26% in good agreement with the Cu theoretical concentration. XRD analysis shows that the films are nanocrystalline zinc oxide with the wurtzite structure. From optical measurements, a significant decrease in average optical transmission from 93 to 76 % is observed for all doped samples and the band gap value decreased from 3.20 to 3.00 eV which are related to the presence of defects due to Cu incorporation. The resistivity value of 9.64Ω10-4 Ω-cm have been achieved -which is very promising in electronics for field effect transistors.","PeriodicalId":151985,"journal":{"name":"2019 International Semiconductor Conference (CAS)","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117180450","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}

Four thin channels have been created in GAA NWMBCFET instead of one channel having equal distance between vertical and horizontal stacking. The device performance has been numerically evaluated using coupled Drift-diffusion (DD) method and Shockley-Read-Hall Recombination method (SRH). The compared transfer and output characteristics of GAA NWFET (Lg = 35nm) and GAA NWMBCFET (Lg = 5nm), GAA NWFET (Lg = 5nm) and GAA NWMBCFET (Lg = 5nm) have been reported. The inclusion of multi bridge channel in the device has increased its current drive because of the Ultra-Thin Body (UTB). It has been reported that the GAA structure has a good immunity to short channel effects and maintains the Electro Static Integrity.","PeriodicalId":151985,"journal":{"name":"2019 International Semiconductor Conference (CAS)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132508837","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}

As the number of poorly soluble drugs is increasing, nanocrystals have become very interesting, due to the wide range of application possibilities. Curcumin was used as a model substance in this work. Even though it has many proven positive effects, due to its physicochemical issues, its possibilities have not been fully exploited. In this context, nanocrystals seem promising delivery systems. The main goal of this work was to select optimal conditions for the top-down method for curcumin nanosuspension production, and to perform a comprehensive characterization of selected samples using complementary methods: dynamic light scattering, polarization and atomic force microscopy, thermal analysis, antioxidant activity evaluation and release kinetics assessment. Nanosuspensions stabilized by polysorbate 80 and by combinations of polysorbate 80 and sucrose palmitate (4:1 and 2:1; curcumin:stabilizer=1:1) have shown good stability, with optimal milling time of 30min. Obtained nanocrystals were well defined, with average diameter below 200 nm, PDI was about 0.25, zeta potential was above |30| mV, and pH was around 5 for all formulations. Under selected experimental protocol, nanodispersions exhibited high antioxidant potential (IC50=0.12mg/ml). Significant differences in the release kinetics of curcumin from nanosuspensions compared to coarse dispersions was captured.","PeriodicalId":151985,"journal":{"name":"2019 International Semiconductor Conference (CAS)","volume":"58 30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128784176","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}
