Study of chemical vapor deposited carbon nanotubes as electrical interconnect by Ng, Chou Shing

“…Experiments are conducted with various thicknesses of Ti/TiN and Al/Al2O3 thin films in order to find a best fit solution that allows considerable growth of carbon nanotubes while as the same time minimizing the resistivity of the barrier layers. Last but not least, a comparison study is done to find out the differences in properties of the carbon nanotubes grown on the two thin films.…”

Ethical surveillance in vaccine passports by Cofone, I

“…Vaccine passports should work on a decentralized system and use the least invasive data possible. Further, vaccine passports should be based solely on government vaccine data, be implemented only in places where vaccines are widely available for free, track location only when they are scanned, and provide a non-digital option. …”
