Performance of a spin-based insulated gate field effect transistor

Fundamental physical properties limiting the performance of spin field effect transistors are compared to those of ordinary (charge-based) field effect transistors. Instead of raising and lowering a barrier to current flow these spin transistors use static spin-selective barriers and gate control of spin relaxation. The different origins of transistor action lead to distinct size dependences of the power dissipation in these transistors and permit sufficiently small spin-based transistors to surpass the performance of charge-based transistors at room temperature or above. This includes lower threshold voltages, smaller gate capacitances, reduced gate switching energies and smaller source-drain leakage currents.Comment: 4 pages including 3 figures, APL in pres

East Bay Coalition for the Homeless Project: Final Report

The report suggests strategies that can be incorporated into the current work flow and builds upon the current work of the EBCH. The report also presents ways in which to create a more efficient platform for completing marketing tasks, creating opportunities for awareness and knowledge of the EBCH, and increasing consideration of the EBCH as a potential donation focus

Hochschild cohomology of socle deformations of a class of Koszul self-injective algebras

We consider the socle deformations arising from formal deformations of a class of Koszul self-injective special biserial algebras which occur in the study of the Drinfeld double of the generalized Taft algebras. We show, for these deformations, that the Hochschild cohomology ring modulo nilpotence is a finitely generated commutative algebra of Krull dimension 2.Comment: 10 pages.

Urban Design of Bristol Waterfront, Lower Thames Street

Collaboration with the Town of Bristol in the fall of 2013 when students in ARCH 415, Advanced Design Studio – Urban, under the guidance of Professor Ulker Copur, studied the waterfront area along the west side of Thames Street, from State Street south to the armory in Bristol, Rhode Island, including the continuation of a public boardwalk through the area linking up with the adjacent properties. The designs created by students would be used to guide the town in developing a master plan for the area and the new Bristol Maritime Welcome Center

Alumni Showcase

Below is a document containing the combined remarks delivered by six Illinois Wesleyan alumni about their experiences with collaborative engagement and the liberal arts. Martha Aguirre, Class of 2017, created this transcript, based on outlines provided by some of the speakers and the recording available at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FptKx2P9oVg The speakers\u27 photographs and this transcript are also available for download here.https://digitalcommons.iwu.edu/jensen_inauguration/1008/thumbnail.jp
