As Silicon CMOS manufacturing industry is possibly reaching to its climax with complex requirements posed by the International Technology Roadmap of Semiconductors; a “More Moore” approach is fully utilized to further exploit the Silicon Fabrication protocols. This goes hand in hand with other two process and design strategies, namely, “More than Moore” and “Beyond CMOS”. A 10 node technology, converging the chip fabrication processes between 10nm and 20nm, has been rigorously tested and revisited to look for complimentary solutions which are exploitable in variety of designs and processes in next generation technology nodes. The operational output characteristics of MOS/CMOS and its variant devices are being reassessed with a perspective of energy efficiency gained during the device design (inclusive of scaling requirements) and process development. This, in turn, influences the power consumption, proficiency of performance and reliability of the devices. Such energy efficient electronics has gained a huge interest due the evolution of Internet of Things (IoT) and its ultra-low power considerations. This study focuses on the energy efficient design and fabrication of Silicon CMOS/MOSCAP devices with a detailed electrical and electro-optical metrology. A FAB-specific MOSFET design (technology file), simulated output characteristics, half-of-FAB line processing of MOSCAP structure with integration of novel Atomic Layer Deposited TiN/HfSiOx metal gate/High-k stack and atomistic-layered PVD-driven Aluminium back-contact metallization is realized in this work. Energy efficiency is also studied through the concept of thermal budget by virtue of the dynamics of annealing which greatly influence the electrical properties of the gate stack and consequently the reliability of the process. Subsequent process characterization is performed using Current-Voltage, Capacitance-Voltage, Current Density, Leakage Resistance, Built-in Voltage, Doping Profiling, Charge-storage/ Permittivity, Hall Effect and Vertical Field analysis. Sophisticated metrology techniques such as Charge-Deep Level Transient Spectroscopy and Spectroscopic Ellipsometry are utilized to extract and evaluate the hypersensitive electrical and electro-optical parameters such as charge-transient behavior, activation energy, trap density, capture cross-section, refractive index, dielectric and extinction coefficients etc. Design verification through FAB-line processing, post-FAB thermal processing and variety of measurements revealed a number of interesting results which altogether provide a novel process window to engineer energy efficient electronics with a better trade-off. These results may have ramifications for device and process engineer.
۲۰۰۹ء میں جب میں نے سرگودھا یونیورسٹی میں ایم۔ فل اُردو میں داخلہ لیا تو اُسی وقت سے ہی سیالکوٹ کے شعر و ادب کی تاریخ لکھنے کا خیال میرے ذہن میں تھا اور یوں بھی زمانہ طالب علمی سے جب میں مرے کالج سیالکوٹ میں بی۔اے کا طالب علم تھا تو میری دلچسپی سیالکوٹ اور اس کے گردو نواح میں تخلیق پانے والے شعر و ادب اور اس علاقے کی تاریخی ،سیاسی ، سماجی و تہذیبی اور جغرافیائی اہمیت سے تھی۔ میں نے جس ماحول میں آنکھ کھولی وہ خطۂ سیالکوٹ کا روایتی ماحول تھا۔ یہ خیال آتا تھا کہ قدیم ترین خطۂ سیالکوٹ میں وقت کے ساتھ ساتھ جو تبدیلیاں رونما ہوئیں اور خاص طور پر جنھوں نے اس علاقے کے شعر و ادب کو متاثر کیا۔ اس کے بارے میں تحقیق ہونی چاہیے۔ اس سلسلے میں سب سے پہلے میں نے ۲۰۱۰ء میں سرگودھا یونیورسٹی میں ایم۔فل اُردو کے لیے تحقیقی مقالے ’’سیالکوٹ میں اُردو شاعری کا ارتقا ۱۹۴۷ء تا ۲۰۰۹ء ‘‘ کا انتخاب کیا۔ اس تحقیقی و تنقیدی مقالے میں شعرائے سیالکوٹ کے سوانحی حالات اور ان کی شاعری کا تحقیقی و تنقیدی جائزہ لیا گیا ہے۔ اس مقالے میں تشنگی رہہ گئی تھی کیوں کہ اس میں شاعری کی مکمل ادبی تاریخ کا بھی صحیح معنوں میں تحقیقی و تنقیدی جائزہ نہیں لیا گیا تھا۔ ضرورت اس امر کی تھی کہ سیالکوٹ کے شعری ادب کے ساتھ ساتھ نثری ادب کا بھی مکمل طورپر تحقیقی و تنقیدی جائزہ لیا جائے ۔اس عظیم کام کو سر انجام دینے کے لیے تحقیق کار نے ۲۰۱۲ء میں یونیورسٹی آف سرگودھا میں پی۔ایچ ڈی اردو میں داخلہ لیا۔ ۲۰۱۴ء میں یونیورسٹی نے ’’سیالکوٹ میں نقدو ادب کی روایت‘‘ عنوان کے تحت ریسرچ پروپوزل پی ایچ ڈی اُردو مقالے کے لیے منظور...
Introduction: Anatomy is still taught in medical schools as a basis for studying pathophysiology and surgery. Lack of integration of basic and clinical disciplines reduced teaching hours, and poor teaching methodologies have a significant effect on anatomical knowledge and medical education standards. Objectives: To evaluate the perspectives of undergraduate students of MBBS, fresh MBBS graduates, teaching faculty of anatomy, and consultants on the importance and reconstruction of the anatomy curriculum. Materials & Methods: A total of 600 subjects participated in this cross-sectional study. A feedback form was used to collect data regarding time allocation, clinical relevance, integration, and clear viewpoints in basic histology, embryology, and gross anatomy. The form included free text, binomial, and 5-point Likert scale replies. Results: Analysis of the results revealed that all stakeholders universally preferred integrated anatomy teaching throughout the academic years of medical school instead of demanding block during the early two years. According to the study, students experienced inadequacies in their anatomical knowledge when they started their clinical training. Conclusion: This study contributes further to the ongoing discussions in anatomical sciences education by revealing that new doctors believe that anatomical instruction should be prioritized regardless of their career goals.
Research was carried out on an important pest such as M. graminicola of cereal crop. In Pakistan the yield of wheat is extremely low as compared to many other developing countries. Among many factors, responsible for low crops yield but M. graminicola is an emerging threat. Infestation of Meloidogyne graminicola in wheat was recorded at various location of Faisalabad, Punjab, Pakistan. Data were recorded on disease incidence, severity and relative frequency of root infestation. The disease incidence % of the nematode was maximum in Uaf and minimum in Jhumraha. The disease severity % of the nematode was maximums in Jaranwala and minimum in Khurianwala. The relative frequency % of the nematode was maximum in Uaf and minimum in Khurianwala. Development of M. graminicola was assessed on alternate hosts inculding soyabean, brinjal and tomato by inoculating after 30 days. Maximum development of M. graminicola was recorded in brinjal followed by tomato and soyabean. Screening of wheat germplasm was done for its resistance against M. graminicola in three set of experiments including green house, microplots and field level. Data was recorded on plant growth and nematode reproduction parameters. Variety response was varied six varieties were found highly susceptible, seven susceptible and five resistance against this nematode.In vitro and vivo M. graminicola was tested most susceptible variety (Aus -7-58-0850) and number of juvenile maximum. The maximum juvenile mortality was done by plant extract neem by using S concentration. The maximum egg hatching was done by plant extract such as clove by using S concentration. These studies were helpful for management of M. graminicola.
