Heterogeneous Graphene Nanoribbon-Cmos Multi-State Volatile Random Access Memory Fabric, Santosh Khasanvis
Heterogeneous Graphene Nanoribbon-Cmos Multi-State Volatile Random Access Memory Fabric, Santosh Khasanvis
Masters Theses 1911 - February 2014
CMOS SRAM area scaling is slowing down due to several challenges faced by transistors at nanoscale such as increased leakage. This calls for new concepts and technologies to overcome CMOS scaling limitations. In this thesis, we propose a multi-state memory to store multiple bits in a single cell, enabled by graphene and graphene nanoribbon crossbar devices (xGNR). This could provide a new dimension for scaling. We present a new multi-state volatile memory fabric called Graphene Nanoribbon Tunneling Random Access Memory (GNTRAM) featuring a heterogeneous integration between graphene and CMOS. A latch based on the xGNR devices is used as the …

Sorption Of Bovine Serum Albumin On Nano And Bulk Oxide Particles, Lei Song
Masters Theses 1911 - February 2014
Manufactured oxide nanoparticles (NPs) have large production and widespread applications, which will inevitably enter the environment. NPs can interact with proteins in living beings due to the fact that NPs can transport into blood or across cell membranes into cells. Conformational change of protein molecules after sorption on oxide NPs has been reported. Therefore, it is important to understand the adsorption mechanism of protein onto oxide NPs surfaces. Although few works have reported protein adsorption behaviors, a general systematic comparison of the effects of particle size and surface groups on protein adsorption by widely studied NPs still needs to be …
