A novel approach to designing a guitar distortion effects pedal by Zheng, Luka

“…This was first done by overdriving the tube amplifier beyond its linear region, creating a harmonic distortion characteristic that is dominant in the 2nd harmonics, and changing to odd harmonic distortion as the output voltage swing is limited by the rail voltage. Guitar distortion pedals today seek to recreate the same sound effect of an overdriven tube amplifier with the use of nonlinear I-V characteristics of diodes. …”

Atomic transistors beyond Moore's law by Li, Haifeng

“…The scope of the study is limited to reducing contact resistance, and future work may include optimizing parameters such as subthreshold swing. Overall, this study demonstrates the development of high-performance BP-based FETs and opens up new opportunities for their applications in the fields of electronics and optoelectronics.…”

Dynamical and statistical properties of anyons in fractional quantum hall effect by Ha, Quang Trung

“…Another important aspect of anyons is their intrinsic spin and the corresponding spin-statistics relation, which must account for the fact that FQH anyons are not point particles, but objects with finite sizes and intricate internal structures. …”

A Highly Linear Ultra-Low-Area-and-Power CMOS Voltage-Controlled Oscillator for Autonomous Microsystems by Pacheco, Javier de Mena, Palacios, Tomas, Hempel, Marek, Vallejo, Marisa Lopez

“…It is designed to minimize leakage, limit high peak currents and provide an output whose frequency variation is linear with the input voltage, while allowing rail-to-rail input range swing. The oscillator occupies 592 μm2 , operates in a frequency range from 43 to 53 Hz and consumes a maximum average power of 210 pW at a supply voltage of 1 V and 4 pW at 0.3 V. …”

Electronic structure of paramagnetic transition metal complexes by Al-Ameed, K

“…In Chapter 3, we address the question of redox-dependent spin transitions in triangular iron complexes. Experiments have shown that one-electron reduction of a pyrazolate-bridged Fe^III₃ cluster drives a transition from high- to low-spin configurations at all three metal centres. …”
