Analysis and Verilog-A Modeling of Floating-Gate Transistors by Sayma Nowshin Chowdhury, Matthew Chen, Sahil Shah

“…Designing and fabricating these circuits typically involves extensive SPICE-based simulations, yet integrating and calibrating floating-gate transistors post-fabrication is a common practice. To bridge this gap, we present a Verilog-A model based on empirical measurements for a floating-gate transistor fabricated using a 65 nm CMOS process. …”

The Social Anchors and Social Capital Perspectives of Explaining Albanian Immigrant’s Problems of Social Integration in Germany by Agastra Anisa Jenishaj

“…Regarding literature review, this means they have built weak social capital and social anchors, that produces difficulties in their economic, socio-cultural and legal integration process. Among the strongest challenges of integration were language barriers, the process of equipping curricula, cultural gap between Albania and Germany, high level of bureaucracy in institutions and non-participation of migrants in organized Albanian or German groups. …”

Topologically Protected Flatness in Chiral Moiré Heterostructures by Valentin Crépel, Peize Ding, Nishchhal Verma, Nicolas Regnault, Raquel Queiroz

“…In higher magic angles, the amplitude of fluctuations largely exceeds the anomalous contribution, which we find results in a physically meaningless chiral operator and an extremely large sensitivity to microscopic details and an exponential collapse of the single-particle gap. Through numerical simulations, we further study various types of disorder and identify the scattering processes that are enhanced or suppressed in the chiral limit. …”
