A theoretical construction of an antiferromagnetic polymer multilayered field-effect transistor with polymers stretched between the source and drain contacts was undertaken. The model employed a quantum approach to the on-chain spin-charge distribution, which was self-consistently coupled with the charge distribution controlled by the gate voltage. Contrary to standard field-effect transistors, we found that the current firstly increased superlinearly with the drain voltage, then it achieved the maximum for drain voltages notably lower than the gate voltage, and after that, it decreased with the drain voltage with no saturation.

The present paper focuses on vehicle simulator fidelity, particularly the effect of motion cues intensity on driver performance. The 6-DOF motion platform was used in the experiment; however, we mainly focused on one characteristic of driving behavior. The braking performance of 24 participants in a car simulator was recorded and analyzed.

Recent advances in technology have led to an explosion of data in virtually all domains of our lives. Modern biomedical devices can acquire a large number of physical readings from patients. Often, these readings are stored in the form of time series data.

We have theoretically investigated the feasibility of constructing a spintronic field-effect transistor with the active channel made of a polymer chain with the antiferromagnetic coupling oriented in the source-to-drain direction. We found two different device function regimes controlling the on-chain spin-charge carrier density by tuning the gate voltage. At higher charge carrier densities, the source-drain current linearly increases with decreasing charge carrier densities.

Five compounds consisting of the same donor unit (dithieno[3,2-:2',3'-]pyrrole, ), the same π-linker (2,5-thienylene), and different acceptors of increasing electron-withdrawing ability (1,3,4-thiadiazole (), benzo[][1,2,5]thiadiazole (), 2,5-dihydropyrrolo[3,4-]pyrrole-1,4-dione (), 1,2,4,5-tetrazine (), and benzo[][3,8]phenanthroline-1,3,6,8(2,7)-tetraone ()) were synthesized. , , and turned out to be interesting luminophores emitting either yellow ( or near-infrared ( and ) radiation in dichloromethane solutions. The emission bands were increasingly bathochromically shifted with increasing solvent polarity.
