Novel strategies for low-voltage NAND flash memory with negative capacitance effect
Authors: Kim Giuk , Kim Taeho , Lee Sangho , Hwang Junghyeon , Jung Minhyun , Ahn Jinho , Jeon Sanghun
Published: April 2024

Here, we present a novel approach to employing a negative capacitance (NC) phenomenon in the blocking oxide of charge trap flash (CTF) memory. To achieve this, we developed an inversible mono-domain like ferroelectric (IMFE) film through high-pressure post-deposition annealing in a forming gas at 200 atm (FG-HPPDA). The FG-HPPDA process enables to form a uniform alignment of domains and facilitates invertible domain switching behavior in ferroelectrics, generating an internal field by the flexo-electric effect as well as interface-pinned polarization by chemical reaction. Subsequently, to stabilize the NC effect, we fabricated the IMFE/Al2O3 heterostructure, which exhibits an outstanding capacitance-boosting feature. Finally, we successfully demonstrate unprecedented CTF memory with the NC effect in a blocking oxide. Our unique CTF device shows the improved performance (maximum incremental-step-pulse-programming (ISPP) slope ∼1.05) and a large MW (>8 V), attributed to the capacitance boosting by NC phenomenon.
Doping effects of conductivity improvement in anti-perovskite Na3OBr solid electrolytes
Authors: Murayama Mariko , Shi Wei , Osaki Yuki , Zhao Xinwei
Published: April 2024

Improving the ionic conductivity of solid-state sodium (Na) ion electrolytes is an urgent issue, given their widespread application in all solid-state commercial batteries, and the problems facing this industry, including source shortage, high cost, and safety issues. Substituting halogen and oxygen ions (O2−) with larger atoms is expected to enlarge this bottleneck, as the introduction of distortions in the material can result in an improvement in its ionic conductivity. In this paper, two approaches to introduce distortions into Na3OBr solid electrolytes are provided. Adding either I− or S2− to replace the smaller ions, Br− or O2−, can achieve this result. The lattice distortion increases with increasing concentration of I− or S2− in Na3OBr electrolytes, improving their ionic conductivity. We also discuss the crystallinity of electrolytes, which is an important factor for the diffusion of mobile ions.

Authors: Lapidus L. V. , Gostilovich A. O. , Trofimov I. S.
Published: April 2024

Aim. To identify drivers of loyalty and consumer satisfaction with urban mobility shearing services.

Objectives. To determine the characteristics of the use of shearing services; to formulate issues for shearing services that require priority attention; to identify drivers of loyalty and barriers to the use of shearing services, as well as drivers of user satisfaction with shearing services; to formulate recommendations for the development of the quality of shearing services.

Methods. The authors applied the method of sociological survey (with participation of 615 respondents who use urban mobility sharing services at least once a year). The NPS index was used to identify drivers of loyalty, CSI index was used to detect drivers of customer satisfaction. The study was conducted in the context of such sharing services as carsharing, ridesharing, bikesharing and kicksharing, taking into account the relevant specific determinants of the quality of sharing services. The results were processed using general scientific methods of analysis and synthesis of information.

 Results. Users are loyal to carsharing, bikesharing and kicksharing, but not loyal to ridesharing. However, they are satisfied with ridesharing services in all four segments. The main drivers of loyalty were the convenience of using the services as an alternative to public transportation and the relative cheapness of the service. Respondents consider safety issues to be the main barrier. To a greater extent, consumers are satisfied with the technical side of the use of sharing services (we are talking about the convenience of the mobile application, confidentiality of personal data, technical condition of the car). Consumers are less satisfied with the speed of registration, loyalty programs, and the cost of insurance.

Conclusions. Due to the fact that users are not loyal to ridesharing, operators of these services should primarily pay attention to safety during the trip, social capital of drivers (rating system), as well as the variety and number of available routes. In general, the area of growth of competitiveness of the shearing services on transport can be traced in the improvement of product metrics of web and mobile versions of applications, development of loyalty programs and pricing of insurance products

Overview of Small Modular and Advanced Nuclear Reactors and Their Role in the Energy Transition
Authors: Nøland Jonas Kristiansen , Hjelmeland Martin , Hartmann Christian , Tjernberg Lina Bertling , Korpås Magnus
Published: April 2024

There is an unprecedented need to expand the toolbox of solutions to
boost the scalability of clean power and energy systems. Amidst this
challenge, nuclear energy is increasingly recognized as an important
player in the path toward deep decarbonization of the global energy mix.
This paper presents a technology review of small modular reactor (SMR)
concepts currently under development and deployment. Both conventional
and next-generation reactor technologies are evaluated with a focus on
potential power system integration benefits, added system values, and
provision of system-bearing services. Nevertheless, there are currently
some uncertainties in the techno-economic competitiveness of SMRs,
whether they can leverage economics of mass production over their
inherent lack of economics of scale. To address this challenge, our
paper provides some basic cost analysis of SMRs, taking into account
their expected learning curves to evaluate the cost of future
deployments and give insights into their economic competitiveness and
potential role as a disruptive solution in the energy transition.
Multipath Parameters Estimation of Near-Field Spatial-Wideband Systems
Authors: Das Shrayan , Sen Debarati , Viterbo Emanuele
Published: April 2024

This letter proposes a low-complexity, one-snapshot angle, range and
channel gain estimation algorithm for a sparse multipath near-field
spatial-wideband system. With upcoming mm-wave & sub-THz systems
expected to operate massive antenna arrays, the transmitted wideband
signal is not only sensitive to the propagation delay across the array
aperture but the resulting wavefront is no longer planar. A modified
wideband discrete linear chirp transform (DLCT) is used to estimate the
multipath parameters of such a system. Furthermore, an iterative
neighbourhood search is proposed to acquire super-resolution estimates
of the scatterer locations, path gain and the multipath’s arrival angle.
We also show that they are asymptotically optimal approaching their
respective Cramer-Rao bounds.

Published: April 2024

The aim of this study is to address the challenges facing the Dagho Beach Fishing Port Area in North Sulawesi, which plays a pivotal role in the region's fisheries sector but suffers from inefficiencies in development systems, markets, distribution, and infrastructure. This dependence on natural resources has eroded community independence, exacerbated by issues such as illegal fisheries transactions, price disparities, and the absence of processing industries. Additionally, limited accessibility for exports and regulatory hurdles impede the area's potential, with only a small fraction of the population engaged in fishing activities. To tackle these issues, the study employs a comprehensive four-stage analysis approach. Firstly, Descriptive Analysis delineates the economic, political, social, and environmental characteristics of the area. Secondly, Analytical Hierarchy Processes (AHP) identify the most influential indicators for focused development efforts. Thirdly, a combination of Scalogram and Weighted Sum methods determines suitable minapolitan zones. Finally, Descriptive Direction offers development guidelines based on previous analyses. The research yields actionable directions, including the establishment of a modern market, enhancing fishery product marketing through the "Marketing Mix" and Free Trade Agreement (FTA) implementation. It advocates for technology-based processing units and integrated infrastructure, alongside policy development to support the fisheries industry and promote sustainable practices. The study emphasizes the importance of infrastructure development, economic collaboration, and community empowerment initiatives to foster local fishery development, cultivation, and business capital.

Published: April 2024

Digitization of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises in Indonesia is still not optimal. The lack of full digitalization, besides the HR competency factor, is the unequal distribution of supporting infrastructures such as internet access and transportation. The use of IT in MSMEs is slowly but surely starting to show an increase. Generally, MSME actors use social media as a marketing and promotion medium. In addition to social media, MSMEs have also begun to use the Website as a marketing and promotion medium. However, due to the lack of MSMEs' ability to manage Websites, it is a challenge. As a result, the use of the Website is not optimal and inefficient because orders still use social media such as WhatsApp for buying and selling transactions. The purpose of this study is to analyze the UI/UX of the Lancar Jaya Food MSME Website, especially on the buying and selling features, using the System Usability Scale method. As a result, the System Usability Scale score obtained a value of 73.35, representing Acceptability Ranges with an Acceptable value.

Authors: Yıldız Taşdemir Cansu , Güler Yıldız Tülin
Published: April 2024

The study aimed to investigate preschool children's learning needs related to science and their teachers' science activity practices. A basic qualitative research design was applied. Interviews were conducted with 15 preschool teachers and 48 children living in Ankara and subjected to content analysis. It was found that teachers mostly carried out activities and science experiments to support sense development and observation skills, used science and sensory centres and mostly preferred natural objects and living things. However, it was found that about half of the teachers considered themselves inadequate in science activities. Teachers stated that children need science activities that they can experience on their own, that take place outdoors and that are appropriate for their age, development and interests. They also stated that children need learning experiences that will improve their sensory development, observation and questioning skills. It was found that children mostly wanted to get to know scientists, learn how tools and equipment work, and conduct experiments. As a result of the research, it was revealed that teachers were aware of the importance of developing children's skills and reflected this in practice, but they could not identify the topics that children were interested in very well.

The purpose of this study was the chemical characterization and conservation of the Bes pottery jar. Pottery jars were important in Egypt from prehistoric times until the end of late history; they had their ideological symbolism and important role in daily life. "Bes" jar is a kind of healing jar, which was known and spread during the end of the New Kingdom and Late Period of ancient Egypt. AutoCAD, digital microscope, and polarized microscope (PLM) were used to clarify the deterioration state of the pottery jar. The XRD method was used to investigate the mineralogical composition of the pottery jar. Besides, the pottery's internal morphology and chemical composition were studied using scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX). The examination revealed that the selected pottery jar exhibited numerous cracks, dust accumulation, salt crystallization, and black spots. PLM showed the presence of several minerals, such as calcite, quartz, biotite, and plagioclase. SEM-EDX analysis revealed high calcium oxide concentrations due to the use of calcium carbonate in the slip layer, besides chloride salts. XRD analysis indicated that quartz was the predominant mineral in all the samples. Additionally, calcite, diopside, anorthite, halite, and dolomite were also detected in varying proportions. The pottery jar underwent various treatments, including mechanical and chemical cleaning. In addition, dental gypsum and grog were used in the completion process. Furthermore, the paraloid B-72 was used to achieve the consolidation process.

Adaptive reuse is the transformation of a building because of its inability to meet today's needs, bringing it into society. In the process of change and transformation, the original function of the building, building materials, and social, economic, and socioeconomic situations should be considered. Since the adaptive reuse strategy is a versatile and comprehensive concept, some terms with a similar sense are also used. Additionally, there are various methods of implementing this strategy. These methods can be traditional methods used from the past to the present, or they can be innovative methods created by combining more than one method. In this study, which concepts are used in a similar sense to the concept of adaptive reuse and which innovative methods are applied in this strategy were determined as a research question. The aim of the study is to conduct concept and method research to find an answer to the research question. This study covers the examination of adaptive reuse strategies through academic studies. At this point, the bibliometric analysis method was used. By applying the bibliometric analysis method, the concepts, and innovative methods in the titles of the academic publications examined in the Web of Science database were analysed.

The M'Zab Valley, located in Ghardaïa in southern Algeria, was classified by UNESCO as a world heritage site in 1982. The M'Zab valley has benefited from numerous restoration, rehabilitation, and consolidation projects to ensure the preservation of its monuments and historical sites. This article focuses on social sustainability, a key element of sustainable development and a crucial component of cultural heritage protection. The study aims to identify and assess social sustainability in two fortified villages (Ksour) in the M'Zab Valley. The research uses the case study method in the M'Zab valley's unique social context, taking into account several indicators: social networking, safety, and security, sense of attachment, quality of the home, and quality of life, measured through a survey of 200 households. Results show that the indicator that locals value most is “quality of housing”, whereas “participation” is less significant. Only 5.0% of residents of Al-Atteuf and 7.0% of those in Beni-Isguen express a need to leave or change residences. This article also contributes to highlighting the Mozabite community's advantages and challenges, especially after the social and cultural changes that society has undergone.

This study aims to formulate recommendations for water conservation strategies through solving the causes of water scarcity. Through a qualitative approach, the study was conducted through a review of secondary data sourced from institutions related to the research topic, accompanied by an analysis review of relevant literatures. Secondary data obtained shows that the majority of urban communities choose boreholes/pumps and piped water as the main SAM for purposes other than drinking, while drinking is dominated by refill water. Among the strategies identified, NbS (Nature-based Solution) based on ecosystem strengthening and economic valuation through Payment for Ecosystem Service (PES) will support sustainable natural resource planning in urban areas by considering ecological aspects and community welfare. Sustainable water management in urban areas requires a synergy of driving factors such as policy formulation based on ecological sustainability, involvement of stakeholders with effective coordination, and community involvement in planning and management. Therefore, alignment of perceptions and goals between actors is required to achieve strategic steps and sustainable natural resource governance planning as an inevitable response to climate change.

Citrus aurantium holds widespread use in Moroccan society as a remedy for various diseases, owing to its significant pharmacological properties. The objective of this study was to investigate the antioxidant activity, analgesic potential, and anti-lithiasis properties of the aqueous extracts of both the fruits and juice of Citrus aurantium. To achieve this, we employed various techniques: antioxidant activity was assessed using 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and reducing power assays (FRAP), while the antinociceptive effect of the plant was evaluated through writhing and hotplate tests on mice. The urolithiasis model was induced in rats through the administration of ethylene glycol and ammonium chloride, and assessments were made based on variations in body weight, kidney histopathology, and biochemical analysis using urea and creatinine. Our findings demonstrated significant antioxidant activity in both extracts (flowers and juice) of Citrus aurantium, represented by DPPH values of 5.42±0.20 and 2.87±0.42, and FRAP values of 4.23±0.05 and 1.67±0.13 in flowers and juice, respectively. The obtained results also showed that Citrus aurantium extracts significantly reduced the number of writhes and increased the latency time in response to a thermal stimulus compared to the control group (p≤0.001). Both extracts (flowers and juice) of Citrus aurantium exhibited a protective effect on the kidneys by preventing the formation of oxalo-calcium crystals. The histopathological study of the kidneys in the groups treated with Citrus aurantium revealed a marked reduction in abnormalities observed in rats treated with Ethylene Glycol. Additionally, urea and creatinine values were reduced compared to the control group (p≤0.001), signifying an important anti-urolithiasic activity. Overall, Citrus aurantium demonstrated potent antioxidant, analgesic and antilithic activities, suggesting its potential as a valuable natural source of bioactive compounds with various therapeutic applications.

Sweet sorghum is an essential economic renewable energy crop for ethanol production through fermentation. The endophytes residing in plants decompose the plant cell walls using cellulase to access nutrients for their growth. Therefore, isolating the endophytes with high cellulase-producing capability from Sweet sorghum could be a potential approach for better hydrolysis of sweet sorghum, thereby increasing industrial ethanol production. In this study, forty-eight cellulase-producing endophytes were isolated from fresh sweet sorghum and screened by the Congo red staining method. Of them, strain X-25 with better hydrolysis activity was identified as Bacillus sp. through 16S rDNA sequencing. The alcohol production process was optimized by the orthogonal experiment, and the ethanol content reached a maximum of 10.84 g/100 mL. The Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) micrograph results demonstrated that cellulase in endophytic bacteria could effectively disrupt or diminish the cell wall structure of sweet sorghum straw. Overall, this study will provide a novel approach to production of ethanol from sweet sorghum straw.
