This research focuses on optimizing the power output of body heat-driven wearable thermoelectric generators, while ensuring user comfort. It emphasizes minimizing heat loss, maintaining a significant temperature differential across the thermoelectric material, and designing compact generators. Investigations explored temperature-regulated hot surfaces at various body sites including the wrist, upper arm, and chest. Power levels were recorded during activities such as running and walking. Findings indicate that power generation was most effective at the upper arm, peaking at 71.2 millivolts with a thermoelectric generator equipped with a heat sink silver spreader and silicon insulator during summer conditions. The study also evaluated the feasibility of using upper arm thermoelectric generators to power wearable electrocardiogram sensors. In comparison, while thermoelectric generators at the wrist benefited from airflow in winter, achieving up to 29.3 millivolts, those at the chest showed superior power output. This research underscores the potential of strategically placed thermoelectric generators in enhancing the functionality of wearable technologies.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":21909,"journal":{"name":"Solid-state Electronics","volume":"227 ","pages":"Article 109122"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143799918","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Conventional variation modeling usually consists of two steps: compact modeling the basic electrical properties and sub-modeling the variation sources introduced in MOSFET manufacturing process, mostly structural and doping parameters. This lengthy process results in a gap between device production and rapid circuit analysis. In order to improve modeling efficiency, in this work, we propose a one-step variation-included compact modeling approach leveraging machine learning. Utilizing conditional variational autoencoder (cVAE), currents with variation are directly constructed without the sub-modeling step, as variation sources of the cVAE model are automatically extracted. Benchmark against prior distribution of dataset generated by Monte Carlo simulation of BSIM-CMG, normalized variation in figure of merits (FoMs) of cVAE generated I-V curves are all above 0.9. After implementing the model in SPICE, high accuracy in circuit-level variation modeling also indicates the potential of the proposed model.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":21909,"journal":{"name":"Solid-state Electronics","volume":"227 ","pages":"Article 109119"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143777167","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Silicon–On–Insulator(SOI) wafer with buried oxide (BOX) inherits better low frequency isolation compared to bulk silicon. However, at higher frequencies the advantage subsides due to capacitive coupling. For the mixed mode applications, the abrupt signal switching in digital circuitry poses a detrimental effect on the noise-sensitive analog circuitry. This work studies the crosstalk isolation in commercial SOI resistivity substrate (∼1–100 Ω.cm) by deploying design-based approaches for crosstalk reduction. A clear advantage of SOI vs standard bulk is reported especially for low-frequency range. Substrate well variance with different types of junctions is studied and demonstrated to reduce noise isolation.

The findings reveal that while overall low-field mobility demonstrates weak dependency on nanosheet width, it suffers some reduction in short-channel transistors. Furthermore, the mobility degradation was analyzed, and the results indicate that overall mobility degradation coefficients depend on the nanosheet width, as the balance between horizontal and vertical contributions varies. Notably, while the linear degradation factor dominates the mobility degradation at horizontal planes, vertical planes exhibit a dominant quadratic degradation factor.
