Manipulation of ions and molecules by external control at the nanoscale is highly relevant to biomedical applications. We report a biocompatible electrode-embedded nanofluidic channel membrane designed for electrofluidic applications such as ionic field-effect transistors for implantable drug-delivery systems. Our nanofluidic membrane includes a polysilicon electrode electrically isolated by amorphous silicon carbide (a-SiC). The nanochannel gating performance was experimentally investigated based on the current-voltage (I-V) characteristics, leakage current, and power consumption in potassium chloride (KCl) electrolyte. We observed significant modulation of ionic diffusive transport of both positively and negatively charged ions under physical confinement of nanochannels, with low power consumption. To study the physical mechanism associated with the gating performance, we performed electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The results showed that the flat band voltage and density of states were significantly low. In light of its remarkable performance in terms of ionic modulation and low power consumption, this new biocompatible nanofluidic membrane could lead to a new class of silicon implantable nanofluidic systems for tunable drug delivery and personalized medicine.

In this paper, we propose a new architecture for analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) using multistate spatial wavefunction-switched field-effect transistors (SWSFETs). SWSFETs are multiple quantum coupled well devices, where the wells are stacked vertically and the electron wavefunction switches from one well to another with the change in gate voltage. Quantum mechanical simulations of 3-well InGaAs-AlInAs SWSFET structures are presented. The designs and simulations of 2-bit and 3-bit ADCs using SWSFETs result in low power consumption and reduced device count which improves the speed of the data conversion.

In this paper, the transport properties of the band-to-band-tunneling carbon nanotube field-effect transistors (BTBT-CNTFETs) under uniaxial strain are studied, with the nonequilibrium Green's function (NEGF) formalism. The effects of the uniaxial strain on the electrical properties, such as the ON current (I ON ), OFF current (I OFF ), I ON /I OFF ratio, subthreshold swing and intrinsic delay are evaluated. It was observed that the uniaxial strain has strong effects on the transport properties of these transistors. The results show that appropriate uniaxial strain, although degrades the ON current and the intrinsic delay, it also decreases the power consumption of the BTBT-CNTFETs and as a result can be used for low-power applications.

It is necessary to develop a high homogeneous, low power consumption, high frequency and small-size shim coil for high precision and low-cost atomic spin gyroscope (ASG). To provide the shim coil, a multi-objective optimization design method is proposed. All structural parameters including the wire diameter are optimized. In addition to the homogeneity, the size of optimized coil, especially the axial position and winding number, is restricted to develop the small-size shim coil with low power consumption. The 0-1 linear programming is adopted in the optimal model to conveniently describe winding distributions. The branch and bound algorithm is used to solve this model. Theoretical optimization results show that the homogeneity of the optimized shim coil is several orders of magnitudes better than the same-size solenoid. A simulation experiment is also conducted. Experimental results show that optimization results are verified, and power consumption of the optimized coil is about half of the solenoid when providing the same uniform magnetic field. This indicates that the proposed optimal method is feasible to develop shim coil for ASG.
