Strong UV emission peaks at ~ 360 nm and 380 nm, along with a feeble defect-related visible emission peak at ~ 465 nm, were observed in the room temperature (RT) photoluminescence (PL) spectra of ZNPs. Observation of two distinct excitonic peaks in RT UV-vis optical absorbance spectra and high UV-to-visible PL intensity ratio show high quality of ZNPs prepared by the present method.

A substantial value of compressive stress of about 1 GPa, suitable for hole mobility enhancement, has been obtained. It is observed that the nature of the induced stress depends heavily on device dimensions. The study has been carried out for gate lengths ranging from 100 nm to 10 nm. For a particular gate length, a definite range of W/L ratios has been detected for which the process-induced stress remains uniaxial and therefore acceptable. It is also shown that, for smaller gate lengths the acceptable range of W/L ratios expands, whereas it shrinks towards the higher ratios only, for longer gate lengths.","PeriodicalId":186054,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE 2nd International Conference on Emerging Electronics (ICEE)","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132361447","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 gas-sensing performance of anodized films has been evaluated with post-anodization treatment in de-ionized water and aqueous ammonia solution. The sensitivity increases to 8646% and 16599%, with post-treatment in aqueous ammonia solution and de-ionized water, respectively. This is attributed to increase surface area and activation during the post- anodization treatment. The repeatability of sensor performance has also been evaluated, and it is observed that the de-ionized water treated film is unstable for repeated sensing, possibly due to some structural modifications.","PeriodicalId":186054,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE 2nd International Conference on Emerging Electronics (ICEE)","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115323458","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 tool is an open source software, developed by Professor Kenneth Brakke in Susquehanna University, USA. Solder based self assembled (SBSA) 3D structure was studied previously via experiments using lithography, deposition, wet etching, and dip soldering methods. SBSA 3D structure has wide applications which includes 3D packaging, 3D antenna design and other emerging areas. To completely study SBSA technology via experiments that are infrastructure dependent is not feasible, hence simulation study via Surface-Evolver is discussed in this paper. Simulation studies to understand the variations in forming 3D structures via Surface-Evolver is discussed. The SBSA 3D structure is represented by labeling vertices, edges, faces and volume in the simulation tool. The energy applied to the body defined, includes surface tension, and gravity. The minimization is completed by evolving the surface by energy gradient method. In this paper, the effect of design parameters such as gap size between metal patterns, and solder thickness on the formation of SBSA 3D structures are studied. The design parameters are analyzed for truncated square pyramid (TSP) and open cube (OC) 3D structures using Surface-Evolver tool.","PeriodicalId":186054,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE 2nd International Conference on Emerging Electronics (ICEE)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124123693","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}
