In this study, we analyze metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitors with different thicknesses of SixNy film (650 Å, 500 Å, and 400 Å) and varying levels of film quality to improve their capacitance density. SixNy thicknesses of 650 Å, 500 Å, and 400 Å are used with four different conditions, designated as MIM (N content 1.49), NEWMIM (N content 28.

Nanogenerators have garnered significant interest as environmentally friendly and potential energy-harvesting systems. Nanogenerators can be broadly classified into piezo-, tribo-, and hybrid nanogenerators. The hybrid nanogenerator used in this experiment is a nanogenerator that uses both piezo and tribo effects.

Owing to the limitations of existing battery systems corresponding to miniaturization, there is a need for flexible alternative power sources. Accordingly, energy harvesting from surrounding environmental systems using fluorinated polymers with piezoelectric properties has received significant attention.

Life-threatening complications of dental implant surgery are rare, but include hematoma/hemorrhage of the floor of the mouth, aspiration, and ingestion. Prevention of lethal hemorrhagic complications stem from knowledge of anatomic structures and precise surgical planning. Prevention of aspiration and ingestion can be improved by simple techniques while understanding clinical settings and factors that put patients at higher risk.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAtypical facial pain (AFP), or persistent idiopathic facial pain, is a chronic and diffuse distribution of facial pain along the territory of the trigeminal nerve. This condition occurs in the absence of any neurologic deficit or any other obvious etiology. AFP is one of the most challenging conditions to diagnose due to lack of clear diagnostic criteria.
