Tunnel field-effect transistors (TFETs) are gaining interest for low-power applications, but challenges like poor drive current, delayed saturation, and ambipolarity can hinder their performance. This work proposes a dopingless heterojunction TFET (DL-HTDET) utilizing advanced materials, all based on phosphorus, to address these issues. Our approach involves a comprehensive and accurate analysis of the DL-HTDET's behavior.

This study sought to identify and quantify patient concerns regarding RT and to determine the potential value of assessing these expectations prior to initial consultation.
Methods And Materials: Patients with no prior history of RT were invited to complete an investigator-developed anonymous electronic survey prior to consultation.
This systematic review investigates the relationship between spirituality and sports as explored by sports psychology researchers over the past two decades. Utilizing four reputable databases-Psychology and Behavioral Science Collection, PubMed, Web of Science, and Scopus-articles published between 2000 and 2023 were examined. Sixty-one articles met inclusion criteria for the final review.
