The GESS is manufactured by the cost-effective and rapid “cut-and-paste” method on tattoo paper and can be directly laminated on human skin like a temporary transfer tattoo. Without any tape or adhesive, the GESS completely conforms to the microscopic morphology of human skin via van der Waals interaction. The softness and transparency of the GESS, make it the world's first epidermal sensor system that is invisible both mechanically and optically. The GESS has been successfully applied to measure electrocardiogram (ECG), electroencephalogram (EEG) and electromyogram (EMG) with signal-to-noise ratio comparable with commercial electrodes, in addition to skin temperature and skin hydration. The thin and transparent graphene epidermal sensor can be used for the first time enable simultaneous electrical and optical epidermal sensing.","PeriodicalId":186544,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE International Electron Devices Meeting (IEDM)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130950185","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}

GaN-based HEMTs are emerging as key technology solutions in wireless communication systems that can address the increasing demand for highly efficient, linear amplification of digitally modulated information to cater to new applications such as personal communication, internet of things, 5G etc [1]. The primary advantage of GaN-HEMTs in terms of higher bandgap, carrier-mobility and charge-density can yield better output power (Pout), and power-added-efficiency (PAE) but the linearity behavior of GaN-based power amplifiers (PAs) that trades-off with the aforementioned figures of merit (FoMs) is still to be understood. Non-linearity results in adjacent channel interference, spectral regrowth, and degrading error vector magnitude (EVM) that impose bandwidth constraints and higher bit error rate (BER) for complex modulated signals.","PeriodicalId":186544,"journal":{"name":"2016 IEEE International Electron Devices Meeting (IEDM)","volume":"102 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115805600","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}

In contrast to other approaches, in this work the qubits are formed by trench isolation instead of surface gate-defined. The qubits were fabricated on P-doped silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafers through current industrial semiconductor manufacturing technology. We have demonstrated the accurate readout of the qubits' electronic states by using a single electron transistor (SET) as an electrometer.

The intrinsic thermal resistances of 14nm FinFETs (Rth0, Device) are extracted with face-up (conventional measurement, heat flow from the channel to substrate) and face-down (flip-chip, heat flow from the channel to metal contact) configurations. Since the free convection of air has a large thermal resistance, the heat flow direction affects Rth0, Device. The face-up Rth0, Device is higher than face-down Rth0, Device. This is more significant for multi-finger FinFETs. The volume of hot spot affects the cooling time. In an inverter, the maximum temperature (Tmax) of pFET is higher than nFET due to the low thermal conductivity of SiGe S/D. Tmax and the high temperature duration can be controlled by the current and output capacitive loading of the inverter.
