A Schottky diode-based sensor is a promising structure for high sensitive and low power sensor.
This paper investigates a device called back-to-back Schottky diode (BBSD) for humidity sensing
operation. The BBSD provides simpler device configuration that can be fabricated using less complicated
process. The current-voltage characteristic of the fabricated BBSD was measured at different relative
humidity. From the obtained characteristics, series resistance, barrier height and ideality factor was
analyzed. The device current increased at higher humidity level. The current increase could be associated
to the decrease in series resistance, barrier height and ideality factor. When humidity decreased from 11%
to 97%, the barrier height showed reduction of 0.1 eV. The barrier height reduction was explained by
considering electric field-induced reduction of graphene oxide. The observed result confirmed the device
feasibility as promising simple and low cost humidity sensor.

Gas insulated switchgear health condition can be feasibly diagnosed by analyzing the decomposition products of SF6 to identify its fault.
Modeling of Dirac voltage for highly p-doped graphene field-effect transistor...journalBEEI
In this paper, the modeling approach of Dirac voltage extraction of highly p-doped graphene field-effect transistor (GFET) measured at atmospheric pressure is presented. The difference of measurement results between atmospheric and vacuum pressures was analyzed. This work was started with actual wafer-scale fabrication of GFET with the purposes of getting functional device and good contact of metal/graphene interface. The output and transfer characteristic curves were measured accordingly to support on GFET functionality and suitability of presented wafer fabrication flow. The Dirac voltage was derived based on the measured output characteristic curve using ambipolar virtual source model parameter extraction methodology. The circuit-level simulation using frequency doubler circuit shows the importance of accurate Dirac voltage value to the device practicality towards design integration.
SPICE model of drain induced barrier lowering in sub-10 nm junctionless cylin...IJECEIAES
We propose a SPICE Drain Induced Barrier Lowering (DIBL) model for sub10 nm Junctionless Cylindrical Surrounding Gate (JLCSG) MOSFETs. The DIBL shows the proportionl relation to the -3 power of the channel length L g and the 2 power of silicon thickness in MOSFET having a rectangular channel, but this relation cannot be used in cylindrical channel because of the difference in channel structure. The subthreshold currents, including the tunneling current from the WKB (Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin) approximation as well as the diffusion-drift current, are used in the model. The constant current method is used to define the threshold voltage as the gate voltage at a constant current, (2πR/L g ) 10 -7 A for channel length and channel radius R. The central potential of the JLCSG MOSFET is determined by the Poisson equation. As a result, it can be seen that the DIBL of the JLCSG MOSFET is proportional to the –2.76 power of the channel length, to the 1.76 power of the channel radius, and linearly to the oxide film thickness. At this time, we observe that the SPICE parameter, the static feedback coefficient, has a value less than 1, and this model can be used to analyze the DIBL of the JLCSG MOSFET.

Comprehensive identification of sensitive and stable ISFET sensing layer high...IJECEIAES
The ISFET sensing membrane is in direct contact with the electrolyte solution, determining the starting sensitivity of these devices. A SiO2 gate dielectric shows a low response sensitivity and poor stability. This paper proposes a comprehensive identification of different high-k materials which can be used for this purpose, rather than SiO2. The Gouy-Chapman and Gouy-Chapman-Stern models were combined with the Site-binding model, based on surface potential sensitivity, to achieve the work objectives. Five materials, namely Al2O3, Ta2O5, Hfo2, Zro2 and SN2O3, which are commonly considered for micro-electronic applications, were compared. This study has identified that Ta2O5 have a high surface potential response at around 59mV/pH, and also exhibits high stability in different electrolyte concentrations. The models used have been validated with real experimental data, which achieved excellent agreement. The insights gained from this study may be of assistance to determine the suitability of different materials before progressing to expensive real ISFET fabrication.

The Humidity Dependence of Pentacene Organic Metal- Oxide-Semiconductor Field...TELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
Metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFET) were fabricated using organic
semiconductor pentacene. The humidity dependence of drain current gate voltage (ID-VG) characteristic
and drain current drain voltage characteristic (ID-VD) will be explained. Firstly, the thermal oxidation method
was used to grow SiO2 gate insulator with thickness of 11 nm. Secondly, the thermal evaporation method
was used to form Au source and drain electrodes with thickness of 28 nm. The channel width and length of
the transistors were 500 and 200 respectively. By the same method, organic semiconductor
material pentacene was deposited with thickness of 50 nm at vacuum of 7.8x10-6 Torr. The hole mobility
decreased from 0.035 cm2/(Vs) to 0.006 cm2/(Vs), while the threshold voltage increased from 0.5 V to 2.5
V and gate leakage current also increased from 5.8x10-10 A to 3.3x10-9 A when the relative humidity
increased from 20% to 70%.
Threshold Voltage Roll-off by Structural Parameters for Sub-10 nm Asymmetric ...TELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
This study is to analyze threshold voltage roll-off according to structural parameters of sub-10 nm
asymmetric double gate MOSFET. In case of sub-10nm channel length, because of short channel effects
resulting from the rapid increase of tunneling current, even asymmetric double gate (DG) MOSFET, which
has been developed for reducing short channel effects, will increase threshold voltage roll-off, and this is
an obstacle against the miniaturization of asymmetric DGMOSFET. Especially, since asymmetric
DGMOSFET can be produced differently in top and bottom oxide thickness, top/bottom oxide thickness will
affect the threshold voltage roll-off. To analyze this, thermal emission current and tunneling current model
have been calculated, and threshold voltage roll-off in accordance with the reduction of channel length has
been analyzed by using channel thickness and top/bottom oxide thickness as parameters. As a result, it is
found that, in short channel asymmetric double gate MOSFET, threshold voltage roll-off is changed greatly
according to top/bottom gate oxide thickness, and that threshold voltage roll-off, in particular, is generated
more greatly according to silicon thickness. In addition, it is found that top and bottom oxide thickness have
a relation of inverse proportion mutually for maintaining identical threshold voltage.

This paper describes the breakdown characteristic of the low density poly ethylene film caused
by partial discharge in the air gap. The purpose of this paper is to clarify the effect number of discharge
under repetition rectangular pulses with a needle-plane electrode system as a function of pulse frequency.
The result performed, from 10 Hz up to 1000 Hz. From 10 Hz to 200 Hz, the pulse number up to
breakdown did not change significantly with increasing the pulse frequency and the magnitude of partial
discharge function of pulse number with varied frequency until breakdown were similar. By using both
potential decay and surface degradation analysis function of number of pulse, the breakdown phenomena
caused by partial discharge was shown to reveal a significant correlation between electrical properties and
the transparency of its surface to change deposited on it by a partial discharge exposure.

Performance analysis of high-k materials as stern layer in ion-sensitive fiel...TELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
High-k materials as a STERN Layer for Ion-Sensitive-Field-Effect-Transistor (ISFET) have improved ISFET sensitivity and stability. These materials decrease leakage current and increase capacitance of the ISFET gate toward highest current sensitivity. So far, many high-k materials have been utilized for ISFET, yet they were examined individually, or using numerical solutions rather than using integrated TCAD environment. Exploiting TCAD environment leads to extract ISFET equivalent circuit parameters and performs full analysis for both device and circuit. In this study we introduce a comprehensive investigation of different high-k material, Tio2, Ta2O5, ZrO2, Al2O3, HfO2 and Si3N4 as well as normal silicon dioxide and their effects on ISFET sensitivity and stability. This was implemented by developing commercial Silvaco TCAD rather than expensive real fabrication. The results confirm that employing high-k materials in ISFET outperform normal silicon dioxide in terms of sensitivity and stability. Further analysis revealed that Titanium dioxide showed the highest sensitivity followed by two groups HfO2, Ta2O5 and ZrO2, Al2O3 respectively. Another notable exception of Si3N4 that is less than other materials, but still have higher sensitivity than normal silicon dioxide. We believe that this study opens new directions for further analysis and optimization prior to the real cost-ineffective fabrication.

Optimization of 14 nm double gate Bi-GFET for lower leakage currentTELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
In recent years, breakthroughs in electronics technology have resulted in upgrades in the physical properties of the metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) toward smaller sizes and improvements in both quality and performance. Hence, the growth field effect transistor (GFET) is being promoted as one of the worthy contenders due to its superior material characteristics. A 14 nm horizontal double-gate bilayer graphene FET with a high-k/metal gate is proposed, which is composed of hafnium dioxide (HfO2) and tungsten silicide (WSix) respectively. It is simulated and modelled using silvaco ATHENA and ATLAS technology computer-aided design (TCAD) tools, as well as the Taguchi L9 orthogonal array (OA). The threshold voltage (VTH) adjustment implant dose, VTH adjustment implant energy, source/drain (S/D) implant dose, and S/D implant energy have all been investigated as process parameters. While the VTH adjustment tilt angle and the S/D implant tilt angle have both been investigated as noise factors. When compared to the initial findings before optimization, the IOFF has a value of 29.579 nA/µm, indicating a significant improvement. Findings from the optimization technique demonstrate excellent device performance with an IOFF of 28.564 nA/µm, which is closer to the international technology roadmap semiconductor (ITRS) 2013 target than before

High-frequency semiconductor devices are key components for advanced power electronic system that require fast switching speed. Power Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET) is the most famous electronic device that are used in much power electronic system. However, the application such as space borne, military and communication system needs Power MOSFET to withstand in radiation environments. This is very challenging for the engineer to develop a device that continuously operated without changing its electrical behavior due to radiation. Therefore, the main objective of this study is to investigate the Single Event Effect (SEE) sensitivity by using Heavy Ion Radiation on the commercial Power MOSFET. A simulation study using Sentaurus Synopsys TCAD software for process simulation and device simulation was done. The simulation results reveal that single heavy ion radiation has affected the device structure and fluctuate the I-V characteristic of commercial Power MOSFET.

Threshold voltage roll-off for sub-10 nm asymmetric double gate MOSFETIJECEIAES
Threshold voltage roll-off is analyzed for sub-10 nm asymmetric double gate (DG) MOSFET. Even asymmetric DGMOSFET will increase threshold voltage roll-off in sub-10 nm channel length because of short channel effects due to the increase of tunneling current, and this is an obstacle against the miniaturization of asymmetric DGMOSFET. Since asymmetric DGMOSFET can be produced differently in top and bottom oxide thickness, top and bottom oxide thicknesses will affect the threshold voltage roll-off. To analyze this, thermal emission current and tunneling current have been calculated, and threshold voltage roll-off by the reduction of channel length has been analyzed by using channel thickness and top/bottom oxide thickness as parameters. As a result, it is found that, in short channel asymmetric double gate MOSFET, threshold voltage roll-off is changed greatly according to top/bottom gate oxide thickness, and that threshold voltage roll-off is more influenced by silicon thickness. In addition, it is found that top and bottom oxide thickness have a relation of inverse proportion mutually for maintaining identical threshold voltage. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the leakage current of the top gate related with threshold voltage by increasing the thickness of the top gate oxide while maintaining the same threshold voltage.

Amazon products reviews classification based on machine learning, deep learni...TELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
In recent times, the trend of online shopping through e-commerce stores and websites has grown to a huge extent. Whenever a product is purchased on an e-commerce platform, people leave their reviews about the product. These reviews are very helpful for the store owners and the product’s manufacturers for the betterment of their work process as well as product quality. An automated system is proposed in this work that operates on two datasets D1 and D2 obtained from Amazon. After certain preprocessing steps, N-gram and word embedding-based features are extracted using term frequency-inverse document frequency (TF-IDF), bag of words (BoW) and global vectors (GloVe), and Word2vec, respectively. Four machine learning (ML) models support vector machines (SVM), logistic regression (RF), logistic regression (LR), multinomial Naïve Bayes (MNB), two deep learning (DL) models convolutional neural network (CNN), long-short term memory (LSTM), and standalone bidirectional encoder representations (BERT) are used to classify reviews as either positive or negative. The results obtained by the standard ML, DL models and BERT are evaluated using certain performance evaluation measures. BERT turns out to be the best-performing model in the case of D1 with an accuracy of 90% on features derived by word embedding models while the CNN provides the best accuracy of 97% upon word embedding features in the case of D2. The proposed model shows better overall performance on D2 as compared to D1.

In this study, a microstrip patch antenna that works at 3.6 GHz was built and tested to see how well it works. In this work, Rogers RT/Duroid 5880 has been used as the substrate material, with a dielectric permittivity of 2.2 and a thickness of 0.3451 mm; it serves as the base for the examined antenna. The computer simulation technology (CST) studio suite is utilized to show the recommended antenna design. The goal of this study was to get a more extensive transmission capacity, a lower voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR), and a lower return loss, but the main goal was to get a higher gain, directivity, and efficiency. After simulation, the return loss, gain, directivity, bandwidth, and efficiency of the supplied antenna are found to be -17.626 dB, 9.671 dBi, 9.924 dBi, 0.2 GHz, and 97.45%, respectively. Besides, the recreation uncovered that the transfer speed side-lobe level at phi was much better than those of the earlier works, at -28.8 dB, respectively. Thus, it makes a solid contender for remote innovation and more robust communication.
Design and simulation an optimal enhanced PI controller for congestion avoida...TELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
In this paper, snake optimization algorithm (SOA) is used to find the optimal gains of an enhanced controller for controlling congestion problem in computer networks. M-file and Simulink platform is adopted to evaluate the response of the active queue management (AQM) system, a comparison with two classical controllers is done, all tuned gains of controllers are obtained using SOA method and the fitness function chose to monitor the system performance is the integral time absolute error (ITAE). Transient analysis and robust analysis is used to show the proposed controller performance, two robustness tests are applied to the AQM system, one is done by varying the size of queue value in different period and the other test is done by changing the number of transmission control protocol (TCP) sessions with a value of ± 20% from its original value. The simulation results reflect a stable and robust behavior and best performance is appeared clearly to achieve the desired queue size without any noise or any transmission problems.
Improving the detection of intrusion in vehicular ad-hoc networks with modifi...TELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
Vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs) are wireless-equipped vehicles that form networks along the road. The security of this network has been a major challenge. The identity-based cryptosystem (IBC) previously used to secure the networks suffers from membership authentication security features. This paper focuses on improving the detection of intruders in VANETs with a modified identity-based cryptosystem (MIBC). The MIBC is developed using a non-singular elliptic curve with Lagrange interpolation. The public key of vehicles and roadside units on the network are derived from number plates and location identification numbers, respectively. Pseudo-identities are used to mask the real identity of users to preserve their privacy. The membership authentication mechanism ensures that only valid and authenticated members of the network are allowed to join the network. The performance of the MIBC is evaluated using intrusion detection ratio (IDR) and computation time (CT) and then validated with the existing IBC. The result obtained shows that the MIBC recorded an IDR of 99.3% against 94.3% obtained for the existing identity-based cryptosystem (EIBC) for 140 unregistered vehicles attempting to intrude on the network. The MIBC shows lower CT values of 1.17 ms against 1.70 ms for EIBC. The MIBC can be used to improve the security of VANETs.
Conceptual model of internet banking adoption with perceived risk and trust f...TELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
Understanding the primary factors of internet banking (IB) acceptance is critical for both banks and users; nevertheless, our knowledge of the role of users’ perceived risk and trust in IB adoption is limited. As a result, we develop a conceptual model by incorporating perceived risk and trust into the technology acceptance model (TAM) theory toward the IB. The proper research emphasized that the most essential component in explaining IB adoption behavior is behavioral intention to use IB adoption. TAM is helpful for figuring out how elements that affect IB adoption are connected to one another. According to previous literature on IB and the use of such technology in Iraq, one has to choose a theoretical foundation that may justify the acceptance of IB from the customer’s perspective. The conceptual model was therefore constructed using the TAM as a foundation. Furthermore, perceived risk and trust were added to the TAM dimensions as external factors. The key objective of this work was to extend the TAM to construct a conceptual model for IB adoption and to get sufficient theoretical support from the existing literature for the essential elements and their relationships in order to unearth new insights about factors responsible for IB adoption.
Efficient combined fuzzy logic and LMS algorithm for smart antennaTELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
The smart antennas are broadly used in wireless communication. The least mean square (LMS) algorithm is a procedure that is concerned in controlling the smart antenna pattern to accommodate specified requirements such as steering the beam toward the desired signal, in addition to placing the deep nulls in the direction of unwanted signals. The conventional LMS (C-LMS) has some drawbacks like slow convergence speed besides high steady state fluctuation error. To overcome these shortcomings, the present paper adopts an adaptive fuzzy control step size least mean square (FC-LMS) algorithm to adjust its step size. Computer simulation outcomes illustrate that the given model has fast convergence rate as well as low mean square error steady state.
Design and implementation of a LoRa-based system for warning of forest fireTELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
This paper presents the design and implementation of a forest fire monitoring and warning system based on long range (LoRa) technology, a novel ultra-low power consumption and long-range wireless communication technology for remote sensing applications. The proposed system includes a wireless sensor network that records environmental parameters such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, and carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration in the air, as well as taking infrared photos.The data collected at each sensor node will be transmitted to the gateway via LoRa wireless transmission. Data will be collected, processed, and uploaded to a cloud database at the gateway. An Android smartphone application that allows anyone to easily view the recorded data has been developed. When a fire is detected, the system will sound a siren and send a warning message to the responsible personnel, instructing them to take appropriate action. Experiments in Tram Chim Park, Vietnam, have been conducted to verify and evaluate the operation of the system.
Wavelet-based sensing technique in cognitive radio networkTELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
Cognitive radio is a smart radio that can change its transmitter parameter based on interaction with the environment in which it operates. The demand for frequency spectrum is growing due to a big data issue as many Internet of Things (IoT) devices are in the network. Based on previous research, most frequency spectrum was used, but some spectrums were not used, called spectrum hole. Energy detection is one of the spectrum sensing methods that has been frequently used since it is easy to use and does not require license users to have any prior signal understanding. But this technique is incapable of detecting at low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) levels. Therefore, the wavelet-based sensing is proposed to overcome this issue and detect spectrum holes. The main objective of this work is to evaluate the performance of wavelet-based sensing and compare it with the energy detection technique. The findings show that the percentage of detection in wavelet-based sensing is 83% higher than energy detection performance. This result indicates that the wavelet-based sensing has higher precision in detection and the interference towards primary user can be decreased.
A novel compact dual-band bandstop filter with enhanced rejection bandsTELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
In this paper, we present the design of a new wide dual-band bandstop filter (DBBSF) using nonuniform transmission lines. The method used to design this filter is to replace conventional uniform transmission lines with nonuniform lines governed by a truncated Fourier series. Based on how impedances are profiled in the proposed DBBSF structure, the fractional bandwidths of the two 10 dB-down rejection bands are widened to 39.72% and 52.63%, respectively, and the physical size has been reduced compared to that of the filter with the uniform transmission lines. The results of the electromagnetic (EM) simulation support the obtained analytical response and show an improved frequency behavior.
Deep learning approach to DDoS attack with imbalanced data at the application...TELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
A distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack is where one or more computers attack or target a server computer, by flooding internet traffic to the server. As a result, the server cannot be accessed by legitimate users. A result of this attack causes enormous losses for a company because it can reduce the level of user trust, and reduce the company’s reputation to lose customers due to downtime. One of the services at the application layer that can be accessed by users is a web-based lightweight directory access protocol (LDAP) service that can provide safe and easy services to access directory applications. We used a deep learning approach to detect DDoS attacks on the CICDDoS 2019 dataset on a complex computer network at the application layer to get fast and accurate results for dealing with unbalanced data. Based on the results obtained, it is observed that DDoS attack detection using a deep learning approach on imbalanced data performs better when implemented using synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE) method for binary classes. On the other hand, the proposed deep learning approach performs better for detecting DDoS attacks in multiclass when implemented using the adaptive synthetic (ADASYN) method.
The appearance of uncertainties and disturbances often effects the characteristics of either linear or nonlinear systems. Plus, the stabilization process may be deteriorated thus incurring a catastrophic effect to the system performance. As such, this manuscript addresses the concept of matching condition for the systems that are suffering from miss-match uncertainties and exogeneous disturbances. The perturbation towards the system at hand is assumed to be known and unbounded. To reach this outcome, uncertainties and their classifications are reviewed thoroughly. The structural matching condition is proposed and tabulated in the proposition 1. Two types of mathematical expressions are presented to distinguish the system with matched uncertainty and the system with miss-matched uncertainty. Lastly, two-dimensional numerical expressions are provided to practice the proposed proposition. The outcome shows that matching condition has the ability to change the system to a design-friendly model for asymptotic stabilization.
Implementation of FinFET technology based low power 4×4 Wallace tree multipli...TELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
Many systems, including digital signal processors, finite impulse response (FIR) filters, application-specific integrated circuits, and microprocessors, use multipliers. The demand for low power multipliers is gradually rising day by day in the current technological trend. In this study, we describe a 4×4 Wallace multiplier based on a carry select adder (CSA) that uses less power and has a better power delay product than existing multipliers. HSPICE tool at 16 nm technology is used to simulate the results. In comparison to the traditional CSA-based multiplier, which has a power consumption of 1.7 µW and power delay product (PDP) of 57.3 fJ, the results demonstrate that the Wallace multiplier design employing CSA with first zero finding logic (FZF) logic has the lowest power consumption of 1.4 µW and PDP of 27.5 fJ.
Evaluation of the weighted-overlap add model with massive MIMO in a 5G systemTELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
The flaw in 5G orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) becomes apparent in high-speed situations. Because the doppler effect causes frequency shifts, the orthogonality of OFDM subcarriers is broken, lowering both their bit error rate (BER) and throughput output. As part of this research, we use a novel design that combines massive multiple input multiple output (MIMO) and weighted overlap and add (WOLA) to improve the performance of 5G systems. To determine which design is superior, throughput and BER are calculated for both the proposed design and OFDM. The results of the improved system show a massive improvement in performance ver the conventional system and significant improvements with massive MIMO, including the best throughput and BER. When compared to conventional systems, the improved system has a throughput that is around 22% higher and the best performance in terms of BER, but it still has around 25% less error than OFDM.

In this study, it is aimed to obtain two different asymmetric radiation patterns obtained from antennas in the shape of the cross-section of a parabolic reflector (fan blade type antennas) and antennas with cosecant-square radiation characteristics at two different frequencies from a single antenna. For this purpose, firstly, a fan blade type antenna design will be made, and then the reflective surface of this antenna will be completed to the shape of the reflective surface of the antenna with the cosecant-square radiation characteristic with the frequency selective surface designed to provide the characteristics suitable for the purpose. The frequency selective surface designed and it provides the perfect transmission as possible at 4 GHz operating frequency, while it will act as a band-quenching filter for electromagnetic waves at 5 GHz operating frequency and will be a reflective surface. Thanks to this frequency selective surface to be used as a reflective surface in the antenna, a fan blade type radiation characteristic at 4 GHz operating frequency will be obtained, while a cosecant-square radiation characteristic at 5 GHz operating frequency will be obtained.

A simple and low-cost fiber based optical sensor for iron detection is demonstrated in this paper. The sensor head consist of an unclad optical fiber with the unclad length of 1 cm and it has a straight structure. Results obtained shows a linear relationship between the output light intensity and iron concentration, illustrating the functionality of this iron optical sensor. Based on the experimental results, the sensitivity and linearity are achieved at 0.0328/ppm and 0.9824 respectively at the wavelength of 690 nm. With the same wavelength, other performance parameters are also studied. Resolution and limit of detection (LOD) are found to be 0.3049 ppm and 0.0755 ppm correspondingly. This iron sensor is advantageous in that it does not require any reagent for detection, enabling it to be simpler and cost-effective in the implementation of the iron sensing.

In place of the commercial Pt electrode used in quantum sensitized solar cells, the low-cost CuS cathode is created using electrophoresis. High resolution scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction were used to analyze the structure and morphology of structural cubic samples with diameters ranging from 40 nm to 200 nm. The conversion efficiency of solar cells is significantly impacted by the calcination temperatures of cathodes at 100 °C, 120 °C, 150 °C, and 180 °C under vacuum. The fluorine doped tin oxide (FTO)/CuS cathode electrode reached a maximum efficiency of 3.89% when it was calcined at 120 °C. Compared to other temperature combinations, CuS nanoparticles crystallize at 120 °C, which lowers resistance while increasing electron lifetime.

A progressive learning for structural tolerance online sequential extreme lea...TELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
This article discusses the progressive learning for structural tolerance online sequential extreme learning machine (PSTOS-ELM). PSTOS-ELM can save robust accuracy while updating the new data and the new class data on the online training situation. The robustness accuracy arises from using the householder block exact QR decomposition recursive least squares (HBQRD-RLS) of the PSTOS-ELM. This method is suitable for applications that have data streaming and often have new class data. Our experiment compares the PSTOS-ELM accuracy and accuracy robustness while data is updating with the batch-extreme learning machine (ELM) and structural tolerance online sequential extreme learning machine (STOS-ELM) that both must retrain the data in a new class data case. The experimental results show that PSTOS-ELM has accuracy and robustness comparable to ELM and STOS-ELM while also can update new class data immediately.
Electroencephalography-based brain-computer interface using neural networksTELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
This study aimed to develop a brain-computer interface that can control an electric wheelchair using electroencephalography (EEG) signals. First, we used the Mind Wave Mobile 2 device to capture raw EEG signals from the surface of the scalp. The signals were transformed into the frequency domain using fast Fourier transform (FFT) and filtered to monitor changes in attention and relaxation. Next, we performed time and frequency domain analyses to identify features for five eye gestures: opened, closed, blink per second, double blink, and lookup. The base state was the opened-eyes gesture, and we compared the features of the remaining four action gestures to the base state to identify potential gestures. We then built a multilayer neural network to classify these features into five signals that control the wheelchair’s movement. Finally, we designed an experimental wheelchair system to test the effectiveness of the proposed approach. The results demonstrate that the EEG classification was highly accurate and computationally efficient. Moreover, the average performance of the brain-controlled wheelchair system was over 75% across different individuals, which suggests the feasibility of this approach.
Adaptive segmentation algorithm based on level set model in medical imagingTELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
For image segmentation, level set models are frequently employed. It offer best solution to overcome the main limitations of deformable parametric models. However, the challenge when applying those models in medical images stills deal with removing blurs in image edges which directly affects the edge indicator function, leads to not adaptively segmenting images and causes a wrong analysis of pathologies wich prevents to conclude a correct diagnosis. To overcome such issues, an effective process is suggested by simultaneously modelling and solving systems’ two-dimensional partial differential equations (PDE). The first PDE equation allows restoration using Euler’s equation similar to an anisotropic smoothing based on a regularized Perona and Malik filter that eliminates noise while preserving edge information in accordance with detected contours in the second equation that segments the image based on the first equation solutions. This approach allows developing a new algorithm which overcome the studied model drawbacks. Results of the proposed method give clear segments that can be applied to any application. Experiments on many medical images in particular blurry images with high information losses, demonstrate that the developed approach produces superior segmentation results in terms of quantity and quality compared to other models already presented in previeous works.
Automatic channel selection using shuffled frog leaping algorithm for EEG bas...TELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
Drug addiction is a complex neurobiological disorder that necessitates comprehensive treatment of both the body and mind. It is categorized as a brain disorder due to its impact on the brain. Various methods such as electroencephalography (EEG), functional magnetic resonance imaging (FMRI), and magnetoencephalography (MEG) can capture brain activities and structures. EEG signals provide valuable insights into neurological disorders, including drug addiction. Accurate classification of drug addiction from EEG signals relies on appropriate features and channel selection. Choosing the right EEG channels is essential to reduce computational costs and mitigate the risk of overfitting associated with using all available channels. To address the challenge of optimal channel selection in addiction detection from EEG signals, this work employs the shuffled frog leaping algorithm (SFLA). SFLA facilitates the selection of appropriate channels, leading to improved accuracy. Wavelet features extracted from the selected input channel signals are then analyzed using various machine learning classifiers to detect addiction. Experimental results indicate that after selecting features from the appropriate channels, classification accuracy significantly increased across all classifiers. Particularly, the multi-layer perceptron (MLP) classifier combined with SFLA demonstrated a remarkable accuracy improvement of 15.78% while reducing time complexity.

2. Research Method
Figure 1 shows the fabrication flow of a simple GO-based BBSD. The device structure
consists of two GO electrodes on n-Si substrate (resistivity: 1-10 Ω cm). These electrodes are
expected to form Schottky contact on the n-Si surface. The first stage of device fabrication was
formation of GO thin film via spin coating of concentrated GO aqueous dispersion.
The concentrated GO aqueous dispersion was prepared by heating 30 ml GO dispersion
(4 mg/ml, Graphenea Inc, USA) at around 100 °C. The heating was stopped after the volume of
the dispersion reduced to 20 ml. Prior to the spin coating, Si substrate was cleaned using
diluted hydrofluoric acid (HF) for native oxide removal. The GO dispersion was spin coated onto
Si substrate using spin coater at 4000 rpm for 30 seconds. The film was left to dry at
room temperature.
Then, the two GO electrodes were defined by delaminating middle part of the GO thin
film using adhesive tape. As labelled in the figure, the two electrodes are denoted as SE1 and
SE2. The area of SE1 and SE2 are 0.43 and 0.34 cm
2
, respectively. It was difficult to control
the exact area of two GO electrodes as a very simple delaminating procedure was employed.
Nevertheless, the contact area is not critical from the point view of this work. Finally,
the fabricated device was mounted on glass slide and electrical connections were formed to
enable voltage application and current flow through the GO electrode. Figure 2 shows how
the electrical connection was made using silver paste, copper thread and copper tape.
In order to investigate the influence of different ambient humidity, the sample was
characterized inside a sealed glass bottle. Figure 3 shows the measurement setup. In order to
produce certain RH level, a specific type of saturated salt solution was put inside
the bottle [14, 15]. Table 1 states the used salt solution and its resulting RH ambient. Several
drops of deionized water were added to few tablespoons of the salt until it became slurry.
The salt slurry and the device were placed inside the sealed bottle. After several hours, the RH
level is fixed at certain level. The RH level monitoring was done using another RH meter. Then,
the device current-voltage (I-V) characteristic was measured using Agilent B1500a Parameter
analyzer. After the measurement, the saturated salt was replaced and the measurement was
repeated. The setup and procedure used in this work has been employed in many works to
characterize and calibrate humidity sensor [16].

3. Results and Analysis
3.1. I-V Characteristics at Different RH
Figure 4 shows I-V characteristics of the fabricated device at RH range from 11.3% to
97.3%. The observed characteristics resemble a typical I-V curve for the BBSD structure
reported at other work [17, 18]. According to the metal/semiconductor contact theory, a potential
barrier is expected to form at GO/Si interface due to work function difference [19]. The potential
barrier restricts the flow of current at low applied voltage. As the voltage increases, the potential
barrier height decreases due to the so-called image force barrier lowering effect. The effect
leads to more current flow at higher voltage. In contrast with normal Schottky diode, the BBSD
device has poor rectification behavior. The rectification ratio was calculated to be less than one.
Device under high RH ambient generally produced higher current. The trend could be
clearly observed particularly at high positive voltage. The highest current was obtained under
RH of 97.3%, while the lowest current was when RH is 11.3%. Static resistance (RD) at 10 V
was calculated and plotted as a function of RH in Figure 5. The resistance decreased as the RH
increased. Although the result showed poor linearity, it indicates the possibility of using
the BBSD device as humidity sensor. For RH range below 52.9 %, the sensitivity was estimated
as 15.7 kΩ /%. For RH above the 84.3 %, the sensitivity was 6.9 kΩ /%. Further investigation is
required to evaluate the sensor performance such as linearity and sensitivity.
On the other hand, the progressive trend could not be observed at negative voltage.
Based on the ideal operation of the BBSD structure, the I-V for positive and negative voltage
regime should be symmetrical as the two Schottky electrodes are made from same material
(i.e. GO) and has almost identical contact area. The positive bias operation depends on the SE2
Schottky junction. The negative bias operation depends on the SE1 Schottky junction. In order
to understand the reason for the current changes, the change of junction properties towards
different RH for the two Schottky electrodes is analyzed in the next section. The discussed
junction properties are series resistance, barrier height and ideality factor.

3.2. Series Resistance, Schottky Barrier Height and Ideality Factor Analysis
The BBSD structure can be modelled using equivalent circuit shown in
Figure 6 [13, 17, 18, 20]. SE1 and SE2 are represented by two schottky diodes connected in
back-to-back manner. The current transport of the diode is assumed to follow thermionic
emission theory. Along the electrical conduction path in the structure, voltage drop occurs due
to resistance from Si substrate, GO and connection. The sum of these resistances is considered
as series resistance (RS). When voltage is applied, either one of the diodes is in reverse-biased
condition. This diode will control the overall current flow in the BBSD structure. At positive VA,
current is determined by SE2. On the other hand, current at negative VA is determined by SE1.
Current equation of the BBSD can be expressed using (1) [13]:

. By using the above equations and technique
described in our previous paper, series resistance, barrier height and ideality factor could be
extracted [13, 21].
At high bias region of the I-V curve, the current is limited by the value of RS. Thus, RS
can be estimated from the slope of the I-V curve at high bias region. Figure 7 shows the
extracted value as a function of RH. When humidity increased from 11.3 to 52.9%, the RS
markedly decreased. RS is the total resistance from GO electrode, substrate and
interconnection. The reduction in RS value might be due to decrease of GO film resistance.
At high humidity, water vapors are absorbed on the surface of GO electrode. Interaction
between water molecules and functional chemical group attached to the GO produced
conductive H
+
[22]. The ion conduction improves the conductivity and hence reduces the
resistance. Above the 52.9%, no significant change and clear trend could be observed. Current
fluctuation especially in I-V curve for RH=52.9% might have affect the estimated value. We
speculate that beyond the 52.9% RH, the value of RS is no longer determined by the resistance
of GO electrode. Other factors such as substrate and interconnection resistances might have
limited the RS value. In case when the humidity effect needs to be suppressed, the GO
electrode should be chemically reduced. The reduced GO will have lower resistance and lesser
interaction with humidity [23].

The extracted barrier height and ideality factor for SE1 and SE2 are shown in Table 2
and plotted as a function of RH in Figure 8. The barrier height of both Schottky electrodes was
found to decrease when humidity is higher. This indicates the possible interaction between GO
film and water vapor at different humidity. According to the Schottky-Mott rule, the barrier height
of a Schottky junction is equal to the difference between GO work function (ΦGO) and Si electron
affinity (χSi) [19].

Since the electron affinity is a fixed value, the change of barrier height could be
associated to the modification of GO work function. The GO work function is known be highly
dependent to the absorbed molecules and attached functional groups [24]. Based on the
obtained result, it can be said that GO work function decrease as humidity becomes higher.
As for ideality factor, the value became closer to unity when RH increased. Several factors that
contribute to the non-ideal curve are defects at the interface, image force barrier lowering effect
and modulation of GO work function by electric field [25]. At high RH, these factors are
speculated to become less dominant. Thus, ideality factor close to unity was achieved.

Based on the results from junction properties analysis, it can be concluded that the
change of RD in Figure 4 is as a result of change in RS and barrier height. For operation at RH
below 52.9%, RS seems to be the dominant factor that affects the BBSD resistance.
On the other hand, for operation at RH above 84.3%, the RD change might be contributed by
the variation of Schottky barrier height.

3.3. Mechanism for Schottky Barrier Height Reduction
As explained in the previous section, the obtained result indicated the decrease of GO
work function at higher humidity ambient. However, this is in contrast with the widely accepted
fact that water vapor is considered as an electron withdrawing molecule (EWM) for
graphene [10]. In general, the EWM produces hole by withdrawing electron from graphene.
Such p-type doping process should lead to the increase in work function and subsequently
results in higher barrier height. The above mechanism could not explain the result in this paper.
The result in this paper was found to be quite similar to observation by A.
Singh et al. [9]. In their work, the n-type Si Schottky diode produced higher current at after
exposure to more EWM. Nevertheless, no detailed explanation was provided. One possible
mechanism that can explain our result is based on electric field-induced GO reduction [22]. At
high voltage and high humidity, interlayer water molecules are ionized and produced hydrogen
ion and hydroxyl ions. Then, GO is reduced to become reduced graphene oxide (rGO).

Conversion to rGO leads to reduce of work function due to the reduction of oxygen content.
According to (5), the decrease of work function makes the barrier becomes lower. In order to
validate the described mechanism, further investigation is required.
4. Conclusion
A simple GO/Si BBSD structure was fabricated to investigate the feasibility of using it as
humidity sensor. The current magnitude of the device was shown to increase at higher humidity
level, thus confirming the ability to sense water molecules. Further analysis is required for
thorough analysis of the sensor performance. Then, the sensing operation was analyzed by
extracting series resistance, barrier height and ideality factor. Possible explanation regarding
the changes of these parameters was discussed. Finally, a mechanism describing how the
barrier height is reduced under high humidity was presented. Electric field-induced GO
reduction is speculated to be the key process. Although more thorough analysis is required to
evaluate the sensing performance and to understand the device sensing operation, this
experimental result opens up possibility of realizing simple humidity sensor using GO.
