This paper presents a comprehensive review of dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) power supply topologies, aiming to bridge the gap between DBD applications and power electronics design. Two key aspects are examined: the dependence of the…

Periodically poled thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN) crystals are the fundamental building block for highly-efficient quantum light sources and frequency converters. The efficiency of these devices is strongly dependent on the interaction…

Here we present the first demonstration and in-depth study of unreleased acoustic resonators in 14nm FinFET technology in the IEEE X band, which offer a zero-barrier-to-entry solution for high Q, small footprint, resonant tanks integrated…

Tunnel Field Effect Transistors (TFET) have extremely low leakage current, exhibit excellent subthreshold swing and are less susceptible to short channel effects. However, TFETs do face certain special challenges, particularly with respect…

In recent years, a lot of scientific research effort has been put forth for the investigation of Transition Metal Dichalcogenides (TMDC) and other Two Dimensional (2D) materials like Graphene, Boron Nitride. Theoretical investigation on the…

Elemental substitution is a proven method of Fermi level tuning in topological insulators, which is needed for device applications. Through static and time resolved photoemission, we show that in MnBi$_2$Te$_4$, elemental substitution of Bi…

Dielectric breakdown has historically been of great interest from the perspectives of fundamental physics and electrical reliability. However, to date, the anisotropy in the dielectric breakdown has not been discussed. Here, we report an…

We present the extension of Frozen Density Embedding (FDE) theory to real-time Time Dependent Density Functional Theory (rt-TDDFT). FDE a is DFT-in-DFT embedding method that allows to partition a larger Kohn-Sham system into a set of…

This paper presents a new time-domain finite-element approach for modelling thin sheets with hyperbolic basis functions derived from the well-known steady-state solution of the linear flux diffusion equation. The combination of solutions at…

When running time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) calculations for real-time simulations of non-equilibrium dynamics, the user has a choice of initial Kohn-Sham state, and typically a Slater determinant is used. We explore the…

Elemental antimony (Sb) is a promising material for phase-change memory, neuromorphic computing and nanophotonic applications, because its compositional simplicity can prevent phase segregation upon extensive programming. Scaling down the…

We calculate the frequency-dependent equilibrium noise of a mesoscopic capacitor in time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT). The capacitor is modeled as a single-level quantum dot with on-site Coulomb interaction and tunnel…

A dielectric-modulated double gate bilayer electrodes organic thin-film transistor (DMDGBE-OTFT) based sensor is proposed for label-free biomolecule detection. The double gate of DMDGBE-OTFT is used for creating two symmetrical gates…

We study high-field electrical breakdown and heat dissipation from carbon nanotube (CNT) devices on SiO2 substrates. The thermal "footprint" of a CNT caused by van der Waals interactions with the substrate is revealed through molecular…

Zinc-blende CdSe semiconducting nanoplatelets (NPL) show outstanding quantum confinement properties thanks to their small, atomically-controlled, thickness. For example, they display extremely sharp absorption peaks that make them very…

Topological insulators (TIs) are newly discovered states of matter with robust metallic surface states protected by the topological properties of the bulk wavefunctions. A quantum phase transition (QPT) from a TI to a conventional insulator…

High voltage breakdown in liquid argon is an important concern in the design of liquid argon time projection chambers, which are often used as neutrino and dark matter detectors. We have made systematic measurements of breakdown voltages in…

Time-varying guiding structures introduce an additional degree of freedom, besides spatial-variation, that enables better control over the guided wave in a device. Periodically time-modulated structures which are usually considered enable…

Amorphous oxide semiconductors are gaining interest for logic and memory transistors compatible with low-temperature fabrication. However, their low thermal conductivity and heterogeneous interfaces suggest that their performance may be…

We demonstrate the capabilities of time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) for strong-field, short wavelength (soft X-ray) physics, as compared to a formalism based on rate equations. We find that TDDFT provides a very good…
