description: High performances was achieved on AlGaN/GaN HEMTs based on Si(111). Devices with 0.17-µm and 0.3-µm gate lengths are fabricated on two different layer growth at TIGER laboratory. RF noise and power performances are carried out on these transistors. 
The 0.17 x 100 µm2 devices exhibit a unity current gain cutoff
frequency (ft) of 46 GHz, and a maximum frequency (fmax)
of 92 GHz at VDS = 10 V. Also, a minimum noise figure
(NFmin) of 1.1 dB and an available associated gain (Gass) of
12 dB are obtained at VDS = 10 V and f = 10 GHz. The 0.3  
300 µm2 devices demonstrate a drain-to-source current
density Ids = 925 mA/mm at VGS = 0 V and a maximum
extrinsic transconductance (Gm) of 250 mS/mm.
Furthermore, a high output power density of 1.9 W/mm
associated to a PAE of 18% and a linear gain of 16 dB are
measured at f = 10 GHz and VDS = 30 V.
These performances are the best ever reported for AlGaN/GaN
HEMTs based on silicon substrates at this frequency.

description: Jasmonate sind ubiquitär verbreitete Signalstoffe in Pflanzen, die sowohl an der Vermittlung von Stressantworten als auch an der Regulation von Wachstum und Entwicklung beteiligt sind. Die Allenoxidcyclase (AOC) ist ein Schlüsselenzym der Biosynthese der Jasmonsäure (JA), da sie die Bildung der cis(+)-12-Oxophytodiensäure (OPDA) katalysiert und damit für die Etablierung der enantiomeren Grundstruktur der natürlich vorkommenden Jasmonate verantwortlich ist. In Arabidopsis thaliana kodieren vier Gene für AOCs. Ziel dieser Arbeit war die funktionale Charakterisierung der AOC-Genfamilie aus A. thaliana, insbesondere die Frage nach der spezifischen oder redundanten Funktion einzelner AOCs. Durch transgene loss of function-Ansätze, Promotor-GUS-Analysen sowie Expressionsstudien konnte gezeigt werden, dass von einer partiellen funktionalen Redundanz einzelner AOCs in unterschiedlichen Prozessen ausgegangen werden muss. Ein weiteres Ziel der Arbeit bestand in der Analyse der β-Oxidationsschritte der JA-Biosynthese. Anhand von Mutanten mit Störungen in der Peroxisombiogenese (pex6) bzw. der peroxisomalen Fettsäure-ß-Oxidation (aim1) konnte die Notwendigkeit funktionaler Peroxisomen für die Biosynthese von Jasmonaten bestätigt werden. Weiterhin konnte erstmals die Beteiligung des multifunctional proteins AIM1 an der wundinduzierten JA-Bildung nachgewiesen werden.
description: Jasmonates are ubiquitously occurring signalling compounds involved in plant stress responses and the regulation of plant growth and development. A key enzyme in the biosynthesis of jasmonic acid (JA) is the allene oxide cyclase (AOC) which is responsible for the exclusive formation of the correct stereoisomeric precursor, cis(+)-12-oxophytodienoic acid (OPDA). In Arabidopsis thaliana four genes coding for functional AOCs were identified. The primary aim of this work was the functional characterization of the AOC gene family with a focus on the question of specific or redundant functions of the individual AOCs. Transgenic loss of function approaches, analysis of promoter-GUS-lines as well as expression studies indicated that different AOCs function partially redundant in differential processes. Another aim of this work was the analysis of the β-oxidation steps required for the formation of JA. The analysis of Arabidopsis mutants which are affected in peroxisome biogenesis (pex6) or disrupted in fatty acid ß-oxidation (aim1) confirmed the necessity of functional peroxisomes for JA-Biosynthesis. Furthermore, the involvement of the multifunctional protein AIM1 in wound-induced JA-formation was shown for the first time.

description: We consider the quantum expectation value \mathcal{A}=\ of an observable A over the state |ψ\> . We derive the exact probability distribution of \mathcal{A} seen as a random variable when |ψ\> varies over the set of all pure states equipped with the Haar-induced measure. The probability density is obtained with elementary means by computing its characteristic function, both for non-degenerate and degenerate observables. To illustrate our results we compare the exact predictions for few concrete examples with the concentration bounds obtained using Levy's lemma. Finally we comment on the relevance of the central limit theorem and draw some results on an alternative statistical mechanics based on the uniform measure on the energy shell.

Growing up in Canada : youth ethnic identity and Canadian identity
Creators: name: Darwich, Lina
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2014

description: The present study examined early (grades 6-7) and middle adolescents’ (grades 8-9) sense of belonging to school and to Canada. Belonging entails feelings of connectedness to our families, friends, schools, communities, and nations. Several studies have investigated adolescents’ sense of belonging to school but few have examined whether youths’ belonging to school varied as a function of ethnicity, time lived in Canada, ethnic discrimination, and ethnic identity. Moreover, early and middle adolescents’ belonging to Canada has never been studied. Thus, the primary objective of the present study was to examine the role of youths’ 1) time in Canada, 2) ethnicity, 3) their experiences with peer ethnic discrimination at school and 4) ethnic identity in explaining their sense of belonging to school and to Canada, respectively. The secondary objective of this study was to examine two distinct dimensions of ethnic identity – private regard and public regard – within a Canadian context. Early and middle adolescents enrolled in schools in Vancouver lower mainland participated in the present study. The first group included 158 students in grades 6 and 7 and the second group included 340 students in grades 8 and 9. Students in grades 6-7 were interviewed individually. Students in grades 8-9 were asked to complete a paper-and-pencil survey during a single group testing session. Results showed that discrimination was linked to both private and public regard. Additionally, for middle adolescents, the link between discrimination and public regard varied as a function of ethnicity. Years lived in Canada was linked to belonging to Canada, with students who have lived in Canada for six years or less reporting lower levels of belonging than their peers who have lived in Canada all their life. Higher levels of ethnic discrimination were associated with lower levels of school belonging but not lower levels of Canadian belonging. As hypothesized, positive levels of private and public regard were associated with their sense of belonging to school and to Canada. Importantly, years lived in Canada significantly moderated the link between ethnic regard and belonging. The present study demonstrated the complexity of studying ethnic regard and Canadian belonging during adolescence.

description: Since the middle of the 19th century, armed neutrality had been the pillar of Dutch military strategy. From 1900, this was implemented not only by the purely defensive concept of “Fortress Holland” on the country's western borders, but also by a German-style mobile field army that would protect the eastern or southern borders. Strategic complications emanated from the almost indefensible eccentric areas in the southwest (where possible British actions could be directed towards Antwerp) and southeast (the German passage to France). Any obvious one-sided preparation to defend against only one potential enemy was considered unacceptable by the government because it meant choosing sides. This conflict was never properly discussed, let alone resolved and created severe military-political tension, which culminated in 1918.

description: The theoretical base for consciousness, in particular an explanation of how consciousness is defined by the brain, has long been sought by science. We propose a partial theory of consciousness as relations defined by typical data. The theory is based on the idea that a brain state on its own is almost meaningless but in the context of the typical brain states, defined by the brain's structure, a particular brain state is highly structured by relations. The proposed theory can be applied and tested both theoretically and experimentally. Precisely how typical data determines relations is fully established using discrete mathematics.

Distributed dielectric charging and its impact on RF MEMS devices

description: This paper gives a new insight into the
problem of RF MEMS irreversible stiction due to dielectric
charging. Previous reported works describing the
phenomenon only account for a drift of the actuation
characteristics as a whole as they consider uniform charge
densities. We demonstrate how the spatial charge distribution
in the dielectric layer can result in the failure of the devices.
We emphasize the role of the variance of the distribution, a
parameter neglected in the literature. Our model can account
for a shift of the C-V actuation characteristics but also for a
change in its profile. In particular, the pull-out window can
be narrowed and even made to disappear as a result of the
non-zero variance of the charge distribution. We identify the
processing, the contact conditions and the distributed charge
depths as variance- and thus failure-enhancer parameters.

description: From the first days of the war, the neutral Netherlands, because of its geographical position, was turned into a transit area for information and a variety of agents from the Entente and Germany. Their activities were mostly directed against each other, not against the Netherlands itself. The Dutch authorities, completely inexperienced in this field, were overwhelmed by this “covert invasion”. They handled it pragmatically by establishing working relationships with a number of foreign agents, so long as those agents refrained from harming Dutch neutrality. Simultaneously, the Dutch authorities exchanged information with both belligerent blocs, enhancing their information position considerably. This strengthened their neutral position.

description: We discuss a general framework for the realization of a family of abelian lattice gauge theories, i.e., link models or gauge magnets, in optical lattices. We analyze the properties of these models that make them suitable to quantum simulations. Within this class, we study in detail the phases of a U(1)-invariant lattice gauge theory in 2+1 dimensions originally proposed by Orland. By using exact diagonalization, we extract the low-energy states for small lattices, up to 4x4. We confirm that the model has two phases, with the confined entangled one characterized by strings wrapping around the whole lattice. We explain how to study larger lattices by using either tensor network techniques or digital quantum simulations with Rydberg atoms loaded in optical lattices where we discuss in detail a protocol for the preparation of the ground state. We also comment on the relation between standard compact U(1) LGT and the model considered.

description: Motivated by some applications in applied mathematics, biology, chemistry, physics and engineering sciences, new tight Turán type inequalities for modified Bessel functions of the first and second kind are deduced. These inequalities provide sharp lower and upper bounds for the Turánian of modified Bessel functions of the first and second kind, and in most cases the relative errors of the bounds tend to zero as the argument tends to infinity. The chief tools in our proofs are some ideas of Gronwall [19] on ordinary differential equations, an integral representation of Ismail [28,29] for the quotient of modified Bessel functions of the second kind and some results of Hartman and Watson [24,26,59]. As applications of the main results some sharp Turán type inequalities are presented for the product of modified Bessel functions of the first and second kind and it is shown that this product is strictly geometrically concave.

Subjects: subject: Cosmology and Nongalactic Astrophysics (astro-ph.CO)

description: We present a purely geometrical method for probing the expansion history of the Universe from the observation of the shape of stacked voids in spectroscopic redshift surveys. Our method is an Alcock-Paczynski (AP) test based on the average sphericity of voids posited on the local isotropy of the Universe. It works by comparing the temporal extent of cosmic voids along the line of sight with their angular, spatial extent. We describe the algorithm that we use to detect and stack voids in redshift shells on the light cone and test it on mock light cones produced from N-body simulations. We establish a robust statistical model for estimating the average stretching of voids in redshift space and quantify the contamination by peculiar velocities. Finally, assuming that the void statistics that we derive from N-body simulations is preserved when considering galaxy surveys, we assess the capability of this approach to constrain dark energy parameters. We report this assessment in terms of the figure of merit (FoM) of the dark energy task force and in particular of the proposed EUCLID mission which is particularly suited for this technique since it is a spectroscopic survey. The FoM due to stacked voids from the EUCLID wide survey may double that of all other dark energy probes derived from EUCLID data alone (combined with Planck priors). In particular, voids seem to outperform Baryon Acoustic Oscillations by an order of magnitude. This result is consistent with simple estimates based on mode-counting. The AP test based on stacked voids may be a significant addition to the portfolio of major dark energy probes and its potentialities must be studied in detail.

of state-of-the-art 200 GHz SiGe HBTs. Analytical
expressions, augmented by a least-square error
minimization based optimization, are used to achieve, for
the first time, a broadband, small-signal SiGe HBT model
that is accurate up to 80 GHz. The intrinsic components for
a T-equivalent circuit are determined from open-collector,
reverse-bias and forward-bias measurements using proper
de-embedding schemes. A bias-independent capacitance i s
added in parallel with the intrinsic bias-independent base
resistance to model the raised extrinsic base device
structure used to achieve the very high fT and fmax found in
these advanced SiGe HBTs. The intrinsic components for
the physical model are extracted directly from the
analytical expressions. The model parameters, extracted
from measurements up to 40 GHz, give an accurate
representation of the small-signal SiGe HBT
characteristics up to 80 GHz.

description: We study alpha, beta, and gamma graphyne, a class of graphene allotropes with carbon triple bonds, using a first-principles density-functional method and tight-binding calculation. We find that graphyne has versatile Dirac cones and it is due to remarkable roles of the carbon triple bonds in electronic and atomic structures. The carbon triple bonds modulate effective hopping matrix elements and reverse their signs, resulting in Dirac cones with reversed chirality in alpha graphyne, momentum shift of the Dirac point in beta graphyne, and switch of the energy gap in gamma graphyne. Furthermore, the triple bonds provide chemisorption sites of adatoms which can break sublattice symmetry while preserving planar sp2-bonding networks. These features of graphyne open new possibilities for electronic applications of carbon-based two-dimensional materials and derived nanostructures.

description: We examine loop-mediated effects of new heavy quarks Q=(t',b') on t tbar production at hadron colliders, using a phenomenological model with flavor off-diagonal couplings of charged and neutral scalars phi=(phi^+-,phi^0) to Q. We show that an invariant-mass-dependent asymmetry, in the t tbar center of mass, consistent with those recently reported by the CDF collaboration can be obtained for quark masses around 350-500 GeV, scalar masses of order 100-200 GeV, and modest to strong Yukawa couplings. The requisite strong interactions suggest a non-perturbative electroweak symmetry breaking mechanism and composite states at the weak scale. A typical prediction of this framework is that the new heavy quarks decay dominantly into t phi final states.

description: A design approach for the generation or suppression of sub-harmonic frequencies in non-linear circuits under large-signal drive is described. A standard Harmonic-Balance algorithm is first used for the large-signal analysis at fundamental frequency and higher-order harmonics; a conversion matrix is then computed for the calculation of potential frequency conversion between harmonic and sub-harmonic frequency components. Cross-frequency stability circles are drawn based on the conversion matrix, and the condition for the insurgence of sub-harmonic instabilities is set as the fulfilment of the Barkhausen oscillation criterion between different frequencies. The instability can be either imposed or avoided by suitably choosing the loads at sub-harmonic frequencies.

description: A new, analytic large-signal model for N-channel SiGe Modulation Doped Field Ef-fect Transistors (MODFETs) is presented. The model is based on a non-linear equivalent circuit and can be employed to fit the characteristics in the sub-threshold, linear and saturation operating region from DC to high frequencies. In addition to the non-linear I ds current source, gate/drain-and gate/source capacitance elements, it contains a dispersion model to account for the observed low-frequency dispersion effects in the devices. This contribution focuses on the reliable pre-diction of large-signal characteristics such as gain compression and third order intercept points by ex-tending the covered gate-source and drain-source voltage regimes of the model. Device characterisa-tion has been carried out up to 50GHz and allows for the extension of the model’s valid frequency range well beyond the device’s measured transit frequency of around 40GHz.

description: This work presents, for the first time, a large-signal look-up table based model for the forward-active region of RF Si BJTs. The state functions are obtained by integrating the device’s bias-dependent intrinsic elements, extracted from de-embedded multi-bias S-parameter measurements. The model accuracy is evaluated using vectorial large-signal measurements.

description: We construct a large-signal artificial neural network (ANN) model for SiGe HBTs, directly from time-domain large-signal measurements. It is known that HBTs are very sensitive to self-heating and therefore we explicitly study the effect on the model accuracy of the incorporation of the self-heating effect in the behavioural model description. Finally, we show that this type of models can be accurate at extreme operating conditions, where classical compact models start to fail.
Pursuing the “usual and ordinary course of business” : an exploratory study of the role of recordkeeping standards in the use of records as evidence in Canada
Creators: name: Force, Donald C.

description: Recordkeeping standards are intended to offer guidance and recommendations for the requirements of a sound and effective records management program. One of the uses of recordkeeping standards may be to help organizations ensure the trustworthiness of records in the event that an organization must present records for consideration as evidence in court. No empirical study has previously been conducted, however, to determine if standards provide suitable guidance about the relationship between recordkeeping principles and legal compliance. Therefore, no assessment has yet been made of whether standards contain sufficient or appropriate guidance to help organizations meet their obligations for the creation and management of legally admissible records. This dissertation addresses the nexus between recordkeeping standards and the admissibility of business records as evidence. The study uses case law from British Columbia and Ontario as a basis for comparing admissibility criteria in a selection of relevant cases against the content of a selection of relevant recordkeeping standards. The study aims to determine if the standards examined provide adequate recordkeeping guidance to help an organization support legal compliance with the criteria for admissibility identified. As an exploratory study, this research also presents an innovative model for considering the suitability and applicability of recordkeeping standards, particularly in relation to the legal obligations of an organization for records creation and management. The findings of this research show that the act of sound and structured recordkeeping helps an organization increase the likelihood that its business records will be admitted as evidence, but that standards play a very small part in actual decisions about admissibility. Case law from British Columbia and Ontario reveals that, in order to convince a judge that a business record is trustworthy, counsel needs to be able to demonstrate the existence of, and consistent application of, accurate and up-to-date recordkeeping documentation. The study offers recommendations on how recordkeeping standards could be strengthened so that they provide more robust and effective guidance about recordkeeping practices and the creation of records-related documentation, most notably in relation to legal issues associated with the admissibility of evidence.

description: An empirical non-linear model for SOI MOSFET useful for large-signal simulations of high frequency circuit design is presented. An original close form expression is proposed for the drain current and charge conservation is taken into account, as capacitances are derived from a single charge model. The model's parameters are first extracted, prior the model implementation in a circuit simulator. Then some comparisons with experimental data are proposed to validate the model. Note that the model is well suited for the Fully Depleted either the Partially Depleted devices.

description: This paper presents a new original full wave hybrid approach based on a wave concept formulation to analyze inhomogeneous layers stack with arbitrary doping profiles. To demonstrate capabilities of this approach simulation results are presented and successfully compared to published results and available software in the case of homogeneous multilayer BiCMOS typical structure with and without buried diffusions layers (BDL) for multi-levelmetallizations. To reduce epitaxial/substrate coupling noise, metallically grilled BDL with varying doping profiles are investigated and exhibit an isolation improvement of about 20 dB.

description: Symmetry protected topological (SPT) states are short-range entangled states with symmetry. Nontrivial SPT states have symmetry protected gapless edge excitations. In 2-dimension (2D), there are infinite number of nontrivial SPT phases with SU(2) or SO(3) symmetry. These phases can be described by SU(2)/SO(3) nonlinear-sigma models with a quantized topological θ-term. At open boundary, the θ-term becomes the Wess-Zumino-Witten term and consequently the boundary excitations are decoupled gapless left movers and right movers. Only the left movers (if θ>0) carry the SU(2)/SO(3) quantum numbers. As a result, the SU(2) SPT phases have a half-integer quantized spin Hall conductance and the SO(3) SPT phases an even-integer quantized spin Hall conductance. Both the SU(2)/SO(3) SPT phases are symmetric under their U(1) subgroup and can be viewed as U(1) SPT phases with even-integer quantized Hall conductance.

description: Static heat transfer and thermal stress analysis for the new generation quasi-monolithic integration technology (NGQMIT) is presented using a three-dimensional finite element simulator. Effects of different factors and parameters such as the gap between the silicon sidewalls and GaAs-chip (Wg), temperature dependent materials properties, isotropic material properties and backside gold metallization thickness or diamond-filled polyimide are described. It is shown that thermal resistances of 11 °C/W and 8.5 °C/W are possible using 200 µm electroplated gold heat-spreader and diamond-filled polyimide on the backside of the active device, respectively. This promises successful realization of the high frequency circuits containing power active devices using the novel QMIT. In comparison to the earlier fabrication process [1-2], eight times improvement in thermal stress is achieved. This extremely improves lifetime of the packaging. The results of thermal stress simulation are compared with white-light interferomety measurement.

description: Histone acetylation is a specific type of chromatin modifications that serves as a key regulatory mechanism for many cellular processes in mammals. However, little is known about its biological function in invertebrates. Here, we identified 12 members of histone deacetylases (NlHDACs) in the brown planthopper (BPH), Nilaparvata lugens. RNAi-mediated silencing assay showed that the NlHdac1, NlHdac3 and NlHdac4 played critical roles in female fertility via regulating ovary maturation or ovipositor development. Silencing of NlHdac1 substantially increased acetylation level of histones H3 and H4 in ovaries, indicating NlHDAC1 is the main histone deacetylase in ovaries of BPH. RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis showed that knockdown of NlHdac1 impaired ovary development via multiple signalling pathways including the TOR pathway. Acoustic recording showed that males with NlHdac1 knockdown failed to make courtship songs, and thus were unacceptable to wild-type females, resulting in unfertilized eggs. Competition mating assay showed that wild-type females overwhelmingly preferred to mate with control males over NlHdac1-knockdown. These findings improve our understanding of reproductive strategies controlled by HDACs in insects and provide a potential target for pest control.
