Abstract

Carbon nanotubes are unique tubular structures of large length/diameter ratio and nanometer diameter. CNTs possess extraordinary electric properties and they have capacity to carry an electric current 1000 times better than copper wires. Pressing or stretching nanotubes can change their electrical properties by changing the quantum states of the electrons in the carbon bonds. These single crystal structures can exhibit either semiconducting or metallic behaviour depending only on the diameter and angle of lattice. This paper is intended to summarize some of the major properties and applications of carbon nanotubes.

Abstract

In this paper, the authors have illustrated a new kind of devices (molecular devices), able to work better at nanometer scale, with particular attention to molecular diodes. In particular, the I-V characteristics of a gated molecular diode were simulated, showing how an increase of the gate voltage involves an increase of the drain current. Then they proposed a simulation study which is obtained by SPICE simulator, in order to analyze and design some basic digital circuits (AND & OR) employing molecular diodes. In the light of obtained results, the molecular diodes are demonstrated as logic ports cannot be used because, although they follow input pulses, the logic levels in output and the noise margin obtained are not appropriate for electronic applications.

Abstract

The cosmic relevance of soft computing techniques vested unbounded merits in prediction topology. Particle Swarm Optimization, a stochastic approach pioneered from simple numeric to electromagnetic optimization within a very short spam. The combined and synergic usage of trained data of Particle Swarm Optimization articulates sophisticated solution involving larger parameters. Thus Particle Swarm Optimization manifested revolutionary attributes in designing of Frequency Selective Surface structures since its very inception. The criticality of modern optimization technique is the time consumption. However, research reports revealed that Frequency Selective Surface structures using FEKO or ANSOFT tool consumes larger time and thus it is a challenging aspect to lessen the time consumption. In such, emphasis is given on adopting population based algorithm in Frequency Selective Surface domain for the prediction of different designing parameters. This work offers an alternative solution in predicting the periodicity to synthesize Frequency Selective Surface. Represented here is the circular slot loaded square patch elements and the same are printed on FR4 dielectric substrate in order to testify the effectiveness of the model by numerical analysis. Lastly, the results obtained from the Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm is validated through ANSOFT simulation and they sustain a good agreement.

Abstract

A well designed band stop filter is a compulsion of today's communication systems in order to suppress spurious bands for error free transmission and reception. While, with the advancement in modern wireless technologies, dual band equipped systems are getting more prominent for enhancing the system performance. A compact dual-band band stop filters are desired for better suppression and high selectivity of these systems, and hence enhances user experience. In this paper, a compact Dual-Band Band Stop Filter (DBBSF) has been presented. The studied structure incorporates the two S-shaped parallel connected quarter wavelength stubs. These two stubs are acting as a source for actualizing the two stop bands and the fractal line technique has been utilized for optimizing the filter size. The filter characteristics has been analysed theoretically and validation has been performed by using full wave electromagnetic simulation. In recent times, designing a dual band filter with high performance, compact size, and low cost are prerequisite for enriching the system performance. Therefore, in this paper, size reduction phenomenon by using fractal structure is implemented. The filter occupies small area of 16.2 mm * 16 mm on a substrate material with dielectric permittivity of 2.55. The proposed design of the Dual-band bandstop filter achieved attenuation of 37 and 49 dB at 1.9 and 5.5 GHz, respectively.

Abstract

This paper aims to make understand the fundamentals and recent advancement in Multi-core Fiber Technology using Space Division Multiplexing. Few mode multi-core fiber (FM-MCF) that enable Space Division Multiplexing (SDM) have greater potential to improve the transmission capacity compared to (SSMF) Single Spatial Mode Fiber. The concept of Hetero geneous Few Mode Multi-core Fibers has paved its way in optical communication system replacing Homogeneous Few Mode Multi-core Fibers which were previously opted. In this paper, the authors have modeled MCF of different geometries with different specific parameters. The uncoupled multi-core fibers (MCFs) which can utilize multiple cores are arranged in a fiber as spatial transmission channels and then are used for the SDM transmission. Design of different structures with different number of cores are also demonstrated. Here, in this paper, the authors use COMSOL Multiphysics (5.2) for carrying out required simulations and MATLAB is used for generation of various proper graphs and field plots.
