We have performed reverse gate bias stress tests on AlGaN/GaN-on-Si Heterostructure FETs (HFETs). The shift of threshold voltage ($V_{th}$) and the reduction of on-current were observed from the stressed devices. These changes of the device parameters were not permanent. We investigated the temporary behavior of the stressed devices by analyzing the temperature dependence of the instabilities and TCAD simulation. As the baseline temperature of the electrical stress tests increased, the changes of the $V_{th}$ and the on-current were decreased. The on-current reduction was caused by the positive shift of the $V_{th}$ and the increased resistance of the gate-to-source and the gate-to-drain access region. Our experimental results suggest that electron-trapping effect into the shallow traps in devices is the main cause of observed instabilities.

NaFeAs recently observed superconductivity with the maximum $T_c{\approx}25$ K is investigated using first principles approach. We will address briefly the electronic structure and contrast other superconducting pnictides. This system shows strong two-dimensionality and reduction of flatness in the Fermi surfaces undermines tendencies of magnetic or charge instabilities. As observed in other superconducting pnictides, $Q_M=(\pi,\pi,0)$ antiferromagnetic ordering, which has not been observed clearly yet in this compound, is energetically favored. However, contrast to other superconducting pnictides, the density of states in this ordering shows considerable electron-hole asymmetry, implying efficiency of hole-doping than electron-doping to enhance $T_c$.

The mechanism of charge flow has been probed by measuring the $^{1}H$ chemical shift on a proton-irradiated ${KH_2}{PO_4}$ (KDP) single crystal. The proton irradiation caused the increase in $^{1}H$ chemical shift. It can be interpreted as the electronic charge transfer from the proton to oxygen atom, accompanied with the proton displacement along the hydrogen bond. For the high resolution $^{1}H$ chemical shift measurement, CRAMPS (Combined Rotation And Multiple Pulses) technique is utilized.

The measurement of the amplitude and phase of electric fields on high voltage transmission lines is important for several reasons including a) Metering and determination of power flow, b) protective relaying. and c) fault sensing. The work reported here is directed toward a major improvement to optically based, electric-field sensors. This is a signal processing based technique for overcoming the instabilities of conventional, optically-based, electric-field sensors to changes in optical power or temperature.

In this study, subsonic flutter analyses have been conducted for a composite smart UAV with T-tail configuration at the critical flight condition. Detailed three-dimensional finite element model for dynamic analysis is constructed including its nonstructural elements corresponding to installed electronic equipments and fuels. Computational structural dynamics and aeroelastic techniques are conducted using MSC/NASTRAN and originally developed in-house codes. The results for fundamental vibration characteristics and flutter instabilities are presented and compared to each other for different fuel conditions.

In this paper the effect of instability and chaos in optical fiber networks based on the Internet is described. Nonlinear optical fiber effect especially Brillouin scattering in networks has emerged as the essential means for the construction of active optical devices used for all-optic in-line switching, channel selection, amplification, oscillation in optical communications and a host of other applications. The inherent optical feedback by the back-scattered Stokes wave in optical networks also leads to instabilities in the form of optical chaos. This paradigm of optical chaos in fiber Internet serves as a test for fundamental study of chaos and its suppression and exploitation in practical application in optical fiber communication. This paper attempts to present a survey and some of our research findings on the nature of Brillouin chaotic effect on Internet based optical communication.

This paper presents a new approach to the design of a rough fuzzy controller for the control loop of the SVC (static VAR system) in a two area power system for stability enhancement with particular emphasis on providing effective damping for oscillatory instabilities. The performances of the rough fuzzy and the conventional fuzzy controller are compared with that of the conventional PI controller for a variety of transient disturbances, highlighting the effectiveness of the rough fuzzy controller in damping the inter-area oscillations. The effect of the rough fuzzy controller in improving the CCT (critical clearing time) of the two area system is elaborated in this paper as well.

[ ${\pi}-conjugated$ ] organic and polymeric semiconductors are receiving considerable attention because of their suitability as an active layer for electronic devices. An organic inverter with a full swing and a high gain can be obtained through the good qualities of the transfer characteristics of organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs); for example, a low leakage current, a threshold voltage ($V_{th}$) close to 0 V, and a low sub-threshold swing. One of the most critical problems with traditional organic inverters is the high operating voltage, which is often greater than 20 V. The high operating voltage may result in not only high power consumption but also device instabilities such as hysteresis and a shift of $V_{th}$ during operation. In this paper, low-voltage and little-hysteresis pentacene OTFTs and inverters in conjunction with PEALD $Al_{2}O_{3}\;and\;ZrO_{2}$ as the gate dielectrics are demonstrated and the relationships between the transfer characteristics of OTFT and the voltage transfer characteristics (VTCs) of inverter are investigated.

This study deals with the accelerated life test of high power phosphor converted white Light Emitting Diodes (High power LEDs). Samples were aged at $110^{\circ}C$/85% RH and $130^{\circ}C$/85% RH up to 900 hours under non-biased condition. The stress induced a luminous flux decay on LEDs in all the conditions. Aged devices exhibited modification of package silicon color from white to yellowish brown. The instability of the package contributes to the overall degradation of optical lens and structural degradations such as generating bubbles. The degradation mechanisms of lumen decay and reduction of spectrum intensity were ascribed to hygro-mechanical stress which results in package instabilities.
