Reduced channel length cause departures from long channel behaviour as two-dimensional potential distribution and high electric fields give birth to Short channel effects.
In MOS, source-drain regions of adjacent MOS transistors together with interconnection metal lines may constitute parasitic MOS transistors unless they are isolated from each other. Hence, each MOSFET must be electrically isolated from each other. Device Isolation Techniques in VLSI microfabrication of MOS are discussed.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.
Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

Operation of NMOS Enhancement Transistor
•The action of Enhancement mode device can be explained in 3 sets
of conditions.
•To establish a channel , a minimum voltage level of threshold
voltage Vt must be established between gate and source(gate and

Operation of NMOS Enhancement Transistor
Caseiii)
Vgs>Vt
Vds Vgs-Vt
•Over the part of the channel, near drain, there is insufficient electric
field available to give rise to an inversion layer to create the channel.
•The channel is therefore pinched off
•Diffusion current completes the path from source to drain, causing
the channel to exhibit a high resistance and behaves as a constant
current source
5. 5
Operation of NMOS Enhancement Transistor
•In all cases, the channel will cease to exist and no current will flow
when Vgs<Vt.
•Typically for enhancement transistor Vt=0.2VDD
Depletion transistor action
•Channel is established due to the implant, even when Vgs<0
•This cause the channel to cease to exist a negative voltage Vtd
must be applied between gate and source
•Vtd is typically<-0.8VDD, depending on the implant and substrate
bias.

the wafer to protect the surface.

Summary of NMOS Process
•Processing takes place on p-doped crystal wafer on which is
grown a ‘thick layer of SiO2
•Mask-1: Pattern SiO2 to expose the silicon surface in areas
where paths in the diffusion layer or gate areas of transistor are
required. Deposit thin oxide overall. For this reason the mask is
often known as ‘thinox’ mask. Sometimes it is also called as the
‘diffusion’ mask
•Mask-2: Pattern the ion implantation within the thinox region
where depletion mode devices are to be produced-Self aligning
27. 27
•Mask-3: Deposit polysilicon overall, then pattern using mask3.
using the same mask, remove the thin oxide layer, where it is not
covered by polysilicon. Diffuse N+ regions into areas where thin
oxide has been removed. Transistor drain and sources are thus self
aligning with respect to the gate structures
•Mask-4: Grow thick oxide over all and then etch for contact cuts
•Mask-5: Deposit metal and pattern with Mask-5
•Mask-6: would be required for the over glassing process step
