In this paper, we introduce a new type of AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) with microfield plate (FP). We use Silvaco-ATLAS two-dimensional numerical simulation to calculate the performance of conventional HEMT and HEMT with micro-FP and analyze its principle. By studying a new charge balance method provided by HEMTs and micro-FPs, the physical mechanism of FP adjusting the HEMT potential distribution and channel electric field distribution is analyzed. The new FP structure consists of a drain field plate (D-FP), a source field plate (S-FP) and several micro-gate field plates (G-FP) to improve the output characteristics of HEMTs. By adjusting the distribution of potential and channel electric field, a wider and more uniform channel electric field can be obtained, and the breakdown voltage can be increased to 1278 V. Although the on-resistance of the HEMT is slightly increased to 5.24 Ω mm, it is still lower than other reference values. These results may open up a new and effective method for manufacturing high-power devices for power electronics applications.

Monitoring of drinking water quality: a preliminary approach by an electronic tongue based on functionalized polymer membrane electrodes.
Anal Methods
November 2017
Materials Science Centre, Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur-721302, India.
Functionalized polymer membrane electrodes based multichannel sensor is used as an electronic tongue to monitor the drinking water (DW) quality simply by measuring the surface electric potential with respect to Ag/AgCl reference electrode in 1 mM aqueous KCl. Changes of minute concentration of dissolved minerals greatly affected the surface potential of the sensor. The three-channel sensor device (electronic tongue) is made by using three different functionalized polymer membrane electrodes, namely, phosphorylated hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium chloride modified polyvinyl alcohol-polyacrylic acid membrane; phosphorylated and crosslinked polyvinyl--ethylene membrane; phosphorylated and crosslinked polyvinyl alcohol membrane, as working electrodes and a Ag/AgCl reference electrode.

Background: Myoelectric pattern recognition (MPR) combines multiple surface electromyography channels with a machine learning algorithm to decode motor intention with an aim to enhance upper limb function after stroke. This study aims to determine the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of a novel intervention combining MPR, virtual reality (VR), and serious gaming to improve upper limb function in people with chronic stroke.
Methods: In this single case experimental A-B-A design study, six individuals with chronic stroke and moderate to severe upper limb impairment completed 18, 2 h sessions, 3 times a week.
Stretch-induced endogenous electric fields drive directed collective cell migration in vivo.

Directed collective cell migration is essential for morphogenesis, and chemical, electrical, mechanical and topological features have been shown to guide cell migration in vitro. Here we provide in vivo evidence showing that endogenous electric fields drive the directed collective cell migration of an embryonic stem cell population-the cephalic neural crest of Xenopus laevis. We demonstrate that the voltage-sensitive phosphatase 1 is a key component of the molecular mechanism, enabling neural crest cells to specifically transduce electric fields into a directional cue in vivo.

Biological neural systems seamlessly integrate perception and action, a feat not efficiently replicated in current physically separated designs of neural-imitating electronics. This segregation hinders coordination and functionality within the neuromorphic system. Here, we present a flexible device tailored for neuromorphic computation and muscle actuation.

Highly ion-conductive solid electrolytes of nonlithium ions (sodium or potassium ions) are necessary for pursuing a more cost-effective and sustainable energy storage. Here, two classes of sulfonated -NH-linked covalent organic frameworks (COFs), specifically designed for sodium or potassium ion conduction (named i-COF-2 (Na or K) and i-COF-3 (Na or K)), were synthesized through a straightforward, one-step process using affordable starting materials. Remarkably, these COFs demonstrate high ionic conductivity at room temperature─3.
