“We are doing the best we can to bridge the gap” - service provider perspectives of educational services for autism spectrum disorder in South Africa
Authors: Pillay Sarosha , Duncan Madeleine , de Vries Petrus J. 
Published: July 2022

BackgroundThe South African education system is increasingly unable to meet the growing needs of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Recent studies in the Western Cape, one of the better resourced provinces in South Africa, showed that the pathway to care for children with ASD was an inconsistent and lengthy process, and that many children with ASD waited for extended periods to get access to an appropriate school placement. It is therefore clear that scalable and sustainable solutions are required to improve access to appropriate education for children with ASD.MethodsHere we performed a qualitative study using thematic analysis of ten multi-sectorial ASD service provider interviews in the Western Cape Province to examine provider perspectives and proposed solutions to meet the educational needs of children with ASD.ResultsProvider perspectives were grouped in three categories: “bridging the gap across the spectrum and lifespan”, “gaps to bridge”, and “building bridges”. The first category captured provider perspectives of the service-related needs inherent to a diagnosis of ASD. The second category summarized service provider views of the challenges associated with providing services to children with ASD and the third category captured provider perspectives on potential actions to improve ASD education services delivery in the province. The overarching theme that emerged was “We're doing the best we can to bridge the gap”.ConclusionParticipants provided ten key recommendations for service strengthening that may lead to contextually relevant innovations to meet the educational needs of children with ASD in the province. Findings from this study has direct relevance to other South African provinces and may have relevance to improve pathways and reduce service delivery gaps also in other low-and-middle-income countries.

Negative capacitance partially junction-less FET for hysteresis-free and improved analog performance
Authors: Kansal Harshit , Medury A. S. 
Published: July 2022

Abstract
Given the advantage of high transconductance (g
m) at low gate voltages (V
gs), seen in junction-less (JL) transistors, it becomes important to incorporate these advantages in conventional bulk MOSFETs which have thus far been used extensively for analog circuit applications. In this work, we propose a partially JL channel in a bulk MOSFET device, which when investigated for a metal-ferroelectric-insulator-semiconductor (MFIS) with negative capacitance field-effect transistor (NCFET) shows superior analog device performance, with improved scalability. Through technology computer aided design (TCAD)-based transient simulations, we identify an optimum and almost constant ferroelectric layer thickness for different gate lengths, which enables hysteresis-free behavior, along with reasonably steep sub-threshold slopes (SS), that meets international roadmap for devices and systems specifications. For this device, we then determine the maximum drain voltage, V
ds, which ensures no drain-induced barrier raise effects, based on which improved transconductance generation efficiency (g
m/I
d), with minimal gate induced drain leakage is shown.

Abstract
Hermetic sealing is an important technology in applications such as packaging of MEMS, sensors and vacuum glazing. Hydrocarbon materials like cyanoacrylate “super glue” have been used for convenient sealing. However, it is known that cyanoacrylate and other hydrocarbon glues are permeable to water vapour and do not act as a hermetic seal. On the other hand, there are some hermetic sealing techniques such as anodic bonding, ultrasonic solder bonding, solder glass bonding with or without laser assistance that require high process temperatures and are of high cost. In this paper, we assess water glass for low-cost hermetic sealing of soda lime glass at low temperatures of less than 100 °C. The vacuum level in a sample encapsulation was measured by means of a spinning rotor gauge which showed no pressure increase for one year. In addition, the bonding strength was also measured, showing that the 80 °C annealing process is the best process temperature for the highest adhesion strength.
Formation of carbon nanotube yarn by gas discharge breakdown
Authors: Hayama Hiro , Sato Hideki 
Published: July 2022

Abstract
This study reports an efficient method of forming centimeter-long carbon nanotube (CNT) filaments using gas discharge breakdown. This method uses a multielectrode configuration comprising a cathode, an anode, a collection and auxiliary electrodes. The gas discharge breakdown generated between the anode and cathode coated with CNTs create a large amount of CNT dust. The auxiliary electrode controls the flow of the CNT dust formed by the gas discharge breakdown. The CNT dust finally reaches the collection electrode, and many CNT filaments longer than 20 mm are formed. By rotating the collection electrode and twisting the plural CNT filaments, the formation of CNT yarn is possible. This method is based on a novel self-assembly CNT filament formation phenomenon and enables a simple and more efficient CNT spinning than the conventional methods. Additionally, this method may enable the spinning of CNTs that are difficult to spin by the conventional methods.
Bispectral Analysis of Parkinsonian Rest Tremor: New Characterization and Classification Insights Pre-/Post-DBS and Medication Treatment
Authors: Lamprou Charalampos , Ziogas Ioannis , Hadjileontiadis Leontios J. 
Published: July 2022

<p>Rest tremor is a most common symptom of Parkinson’s Disease (PD), with diagnosis and severity estimation often being hindered by subjectivity and limitations of existing methods. Hence, methods that can accurately describe properties of PD rest tremor, while accounting for the presence of ongoing treatments, such as Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) and medication, are important. A Higher Order Spectrum (HOS)-based analysis to extract features from index finger velocity recordings of 16 PD patients is proposed. Two different scenarios are implemented for characterizing and classifying tremor severity (Low-/High-Amplitude (LAT/HAT)) and treatment (medication/DBS) effectiveness, by means of statistical tests and a leave-one-subject-out cross-validation classification scheme, respectively. The proposed analysis resulted in area under the Receiver Operating Characteristics curve (AUC) score of 0.94 with 1/0.83 Sensitivity/Specificity, respectively, for the Medication treatment classification. For the DBS treatment, the proposed analysis resulted in an AUC score of 0.71, with 0.63/0.67 Sensitivity/Specificity, respectively. For LAT/HAT prediction, scores of 1/0.93 are achieved for AUC/Accuracy metrics, with 1/0.87 Sensitivity/Specificity, respectively. The proposed methodology outperforms existing methods regarding the prediction of LAT/HAT and treatment effectiveness. Additionally, our HOS-based methodology enables the establishment of new rest tremor classes, based on its nonlinearity and allows for new insights about the dynamic nature of the resting tremor production system. We propose a method that can effectively recognize rest tremor severity and assess the influence of medication and DBS. This study introduces, for the first time, nonlinearity-based classes for rest tremor and provides an accurate representation of tremor dynamics through HOS. </p>
