Modeling of Self-Aligned Selector Based on Ultra-Thin Metal Oxide for Resistive Random-Access Memory (RRAM) Crossbar Arrays.

Resistive random-access memory (RRAM) is a crucial element for next-generation large-scale memory arrays, analogue neuromorphic computing and energy-efficient System-on-Chip applications. For these applications, RRAM elements are arranged into Crossbar arrays, where rectifying selector devices are required for correct read operation of the memory cells. One of the key advantages of RRAM is its high scalability due to the filamentary mechanism of resistive switching, as the cell conductivity is not dependent on the cell area.

Effects of High Doses of Selenate, Selenite and Nano-Selenium on Biometrical Characteristics, Yield and Biofortification Levels of L. Cultivars.

Faba bean ( L.) has spread worldwide as an excellent source of proteins. To evaluate the efficiency of Se biofortification, four cultivars of (Belorussian, Russian Black, Hangdown Grünkernig, and Dreifach Weiβe) were foliar treated with 1.

Effect of Foliar Sodium Selenate and Nano Selenium Supply on Biochemical Characteristics, Essential Oil Accumulation and Mineral Composition of L.

Selenium (Se) biofortification of aromatic plants is a promising strategy to produce valuable functional food with high biological activity and enhanced essential oil yield. The experiment carried out in 2021 and 2022 on treated with sodium selenate or nano-Se sprayed on foliar apparatus demonstrated a significant increase in photosynthetic pigments, pectin, waxes, macro- and microelements and a decrease in malonic dialdehyde (MDA) accumulation. Contrary to literature reports, neither selenate nor nano-Se showed a beneficial effect on essential oil accumulation; the oil yield did not differ between the selenate treated and control plants but was halved by the nano-Se application.

Frequency down-conversion based on optical cascading process-New effective way for generation of far infrared or THz radiation.

Infrared and THz optics has many promising practical applications such as in spectroscopy, diagnostic, optical metrology, sensing, and many others. Due to limited number of IR radiation sources, the frequency down-conversion processes are widely used for obtaining infrared radiation. Among them, the most applicable method is a generation of wave with difference frequency under the three-waves interaction in a medium with quadratic nonlinear response.

Iodine and Selenium Biofortification of Chervil Plants Treated with Silicon Nanoparticles.

Production of functional food with high levels of selenium (Se) and iodine (I) obtained via plant biofortification shows significant difficulties due to the complex interaction between the two elements. Taking into account the known beneficial effect of silicon (Si) on plant growth and development, single and joint foliar biofortification of chervil plants with potassium iodide (150 mg L) and sodium selenate (10 mg L) was carried out in a pot experiment with and without Si nanoparticles foliar supplementation. Compared to control plants, nano-Si (14 mg L) increased shoot biomass in all treatments: by 4.
