The device has a GaN buffer layer incorporated in a c-plane for better carrier transportation and low efficiency droop. The proposed LED has quantum barriers with aluminium composition graded from 20% to ~2% per triangular, whereas the conventional has square barriers. The resulted structures exhibit significantly reduced electron leakage and improved hole injection into the active region, thus generating higher radiative recombination. The simulation outcomes exhibit the highest internal quantum efficiency (IQE) (48.4%) indicating a significant rise compared to the conventional LED. The designed EBL free LED with graded quantum barrier structure acquires substantially minimized efficiency droop of ~7.72% at 60 mA. Our study shows that the proposed structure has improved radiative recombination by ~136.7%, reduced electron leakage, and enhanced optical power by ~8.084% at 60 mA injected current as compared to conventional GaN/AlGaN EBL LED structure.","PeriodicalId":44296,"journal":{"name":"Facta Universitatis-Series Electronics and Energetics","volume":"31 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90787993","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 miniaturization of a silicon transistor is continuing following Moore?s empirical law. The planar metal-oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) structure has reached its limit in terms of technological node reduction. To ensure the continuation of CMOS scaling and to overcome the Short Channel Effect (SCE) issues, a new MOS structure known as Fin field-effect transistor (FinFET) has been introduced and has led to significant performance enhancements. This paper presents a comparative study of CMOS gates designed with FinFET 10 nm, 7 nm and 5 nm technology nodes. Electrical parameters like the maximum switching current ION, the leakage current IOFF, and the performance ratio ION/IOFF for N and P FinFET with different nodes are presented in this simulation. The aim and the novelty of this paper is to extract the operating frequency for CMOS circuits using Quantum and Stress effects implemented in the Spice parameters on the latest Microwind software. The simulation results show a fitting with experimental data for FinFET N and P 10 nm strctures using quantum correction. Finally, we have demonstrate that FinFET 5 nm can reach a minimum time delay of td=1.4 ps for CMOS NOT gate and td=1 ps for CMOS NOR gate to improve Integrated Circuits IC.","PeriodicalId":44296,"journal":{"name":"Facta Universitatis-Series Electronics and Energetics","volume":"44 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81346533","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}

Whenever any continuous-time system is sampled to get a corresponding discrete-time system with a very high sampling rate, the shift operator parameterized discrete-time system fails to provide meaningful information. There is another discrete-time operator called delta operator. In the delta operator parameterized discrete-time system, the discrete-time results and continuous-time results can be obtained hand to hand, rather than in two special cases at a very high sampling rate. The superior property of the delta operator is capitalized in this paper to design the proposed controller in the discrete domain. The Proportional plus Integral (PI) controller designed in the delta domain is used to maintain the output voltage of the Buck converter at the load end for varying load and varying supply voltage conditions. The controller is designed and implemented using the DS1202 dSPACE board. The output voltage of the Buck converter is scaled to feed to the onboard analogue to digital converter of DS1202. Under the different disturbances, the error between the desired output voltage and the actual output voltage is measured and the delta PI controller is used to manipulate the duty cycle of the converter. The duty cycle of this pulse width modulation (PWM) signal is generated using a DS1202 board and is applied to the gate of the Metal Oxide Semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) via a suitable driver such that the output voltage of the Buck converter remains at its desired value.","PeriodicalId":44296,"journal":{"name":"Facta Universitatis-Series Electronics and Energetics","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88803897","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}

Initially, the structure is designed with double L-shaped slits inserted on both sides of the patch with an FR4 dielectric constant of 4.4. Antenna dimensions are 40 ? 25 mm2, which is miniature compared to the wave's length (?) at the desired operating frequency. The proposed antenna performance in terms of simulated parameters such as gain in dBi, reflection loss (S11), directivity, and patch antenna radiation efficiency are executed by the CST MW EM simulator. However, the conventional way of this design with FR4 may not be so reliable when it is designed on Jean's substrate. Besides all the above parameters extracted from the simulator should hold a low value to implement a high-performance deployed wearable antenna. The paper's outcome shows the importance of simulations and measurements undertaken for the proposed antenna assuming both the dielectric constants of FR4 and Jeans cloth material (with ?r of 1.7). The main contribution of the antenna is to resonate at the frequencies of 3.17 GHz with circular polarization and 5.04 GHz with linear polarization. The antenna prototype is described, and its performance is validated using measurements. The proposed structure also provides a better enhancement in terms of 10-dB impedance bandwidth, with an average gain of 5 dBi.","PeriodicalId":44296,"journal":{"name":"Facta Universitatis-Series Electronics and Energetics","volume":"48 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76007939","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 DT quasi-sliding mode control was used due to its robustness to external and parametric disturbances. Additionally, in order to improve disturbance compensation, a disturbance compensator is also implemented. Also, a specific anti-windup mechanism has been implemented in the structure of the controller to prevent large overshoots in the inverter response in case of random disturbances of grid voltages, or sudden changes in the commanded power. The control of the grid inverter is realized in the reference system synchronized with the voltage of the power grid.
