Hafnium oxide thin films were deposited from tetrakis(ethylmethylamino)hafnium (TEMAH) and ozone by atomic layer deposition (ALD) on 200 mm silicon wafers. The half-reaction shows good saturation behavior. However, gradual surface is observed for the TEMAH half-reaction. Within wafer non-uniformity of less than 1% step coverage about 100% achieved trenches with aspect ratio around 40:1. film thickness increased linearly as number cycles increased. From susceptor temperatures 160-420°C,...

We performed this study to optimize reconstituted lyophilized plasma (LP) into a minimal volume fluid that provides effective hemostatic resuscitation for trauma while minimizing logistical limitations.We prospective, blinded animal study. Plasma was following whole blood collection from anesthetized swine. The needed reconstitution determined, and solution evaluated safe infusion the Reconstituted LP analyzed electrolyte content, osmolarity, coagulation factor activity. Twenty swine were...

Partisan gerrymandering and how to measure it have been the subject of several recent court cases a lot media coverage. The efficiency gap in particular has garnered attention. creators gap, Nicholas Stephanopoulos Eric McGhee, claim that is “tally all cracking [spreading voters party across many districts diminish their influence] packing [stuffing into few concentrate decisions district plan” (“Partisan gap.” U. Chi. L. Rev. 82, no. 2 [Spring 2015]: 831–900).

For both two-party and multiparty elections we construct a baseline standard for fair seat proportions based on three intuitive assumptions about plurality voting systems. We show that such systems are inherently biased against minority parties irrespective of political geography thus incompatible with the ideal proportional representation. The construction produces sensible theoretical empirical results when applied to U.S. Canadian elections, it is consistent standards produced by certain...

ABSTRACT We describe two classes of sequences that give rise to accessible problems for undergraduate research. These may be understood with virtually no prerequisites and are well suited computer-aided investigation. The first sequence is a variation one introduced by Stephen Wolfram in connection his study cellular automata. second an exploration modified “look say” was Richard Guy John Conway. For each we discuss the questions motivated their outline progress has been made on them...

We propose a framework to decompose the partisan advantage in map of electoral districts into four contributing factors: fairness notion used evaluate map, political geography, rules on redistricting criteria that must meet, and discretionary choice which specific adopt. apply this factor decomposition 2021-22 U.S. congressional district each state. Our allows us distinguish between maps with large advantages reflect non-partisan underlying cause, from gerrymandered is attributable...

By removing different sources of bias from the redistricting process, each three recent methods -- jurisdictional method, computer simulations, and quadratic rule offer a perspective on partisan fairness. We combine these approaches to resolve overall advantage district maps into distinct sources: state's natural political geography, map-drawing rules, gerrymandering. This component analysis allows us distinguish unfair those that are just unusually partisan, it has implications for...
