Abstract:
The guided mode resonance (GMR) effect is widely used in biosensing due to its advantages of narrow linewidth and high efficiency. However, the optimization of a figure of merit (FOM) has not been considered for most GMR sensors. Aimed at obtaining a higher FOM of GMR sensors, we proposed an effective design method for the optimization of FOM. Combining the analytical model and numerical simulations, the FOM of “grating–waveguide” GMR sensors for the wavelength and angular shift detection schemes were investigated systematically. In contrast with previously reported values, higher FOM values were obtained using this method. For the “waveguide–grating” GMR sensors, a linear relationship between the grating period and groove depth was obtained, which leads to excellent FOM values for both the angular and wavelength resonance. Such higher performance GMR sensors will pave the way to lower detection limits in biosensing.

Abstract:
Chip power consumption and heat dissipation have become important design issues because of increased energy costs and thermal management limitations. As a global compute utility evolves, seamless connectivity from the chip to the data center will become increasingly important. The optimization of such an infrastructure will require performance metrics that can adequately capture the thermodynamic and compute behavior at multiple physical length scales. In this paper, an exergy-based figure-of-merit (FoM), defined as the ratio of computing performance (in MIPS) to the thermodynamic performance (in exergy loss), is proposed for the evaluation of computational performance. The paper presents the framework to apply this metric at the chip level. Formulations for the exergy loss in simple air-cooled heat sink packages are developed, and application of the proposed approach is illustrated through two examples. The first comparatively assesses the loss in performance resulting from different cooling solutions, while the second examines the impact of non-uniformity in junction power in terms of the FoM. Modeling results on a 16mm×24mm chip indicate that uniform power and temperature profiles lead to minimal package irreversibility (and therefore the best thermodynamic performance). As the nonuniformity of power is increased, the performance rapidly degrades, particularly at higher power levels. Additionally, the competing needs of minimization of junction temperature and minimization of cooling power were highlighted using the exergy-based approach. It was shown that for a given power dissipation and a specific cooling architecture (such as an air-cooled heat sink solution), an optimal thermal resistance value exists beyond which the costs of increased cooling may outweigh any potential benefits in performance. Thus, the proposed FoM provides insight into thermofluidic inefficiencies that would be difficult to gain from a traditional first-law analysis. At a minimum, the framework presented in this paper enables quantitative evaluation of package performance for different nonuniform power inputs and different choices of cooling parameters. At best, since the FoM is scalable, the proposed metric has the potential to enable a chip-to-data-center strategy for optimal resource allocation.

Abstract:
In this paper, we present and discuss an extension and an improvement of the Figure of Merit (FoM) that we introduced in a previous paper. The FoM describes the effectiveness of the frequency doubling materials for ultrashort light pulse modulators via second-order cascaded effects. In the present work, as an input pulse we use a temporal Gaussian pulse so that our perturbative method allows an analytical expression even for the output pulse field after the second pass inside the crystal. For the first time together with the completely analytical expression for the second pass, we report also the exact numerical coefficients for the peak phase modulation. With the FoM it is possible to choose the more appropriate nonlinear material and the use of the cascaded interaction process. Finally, we present for the first time the FoM dependence from the wavelength in the interval 0.5–1 μm, and to a table already shown we added more nonlinear materials.

Abstract:
A method is described for optimizing the design of a time-of-flight neutron diffractometer designed to measure lattice parameters. Such diffractometers are now used extensively by engineers and materials scientists for measuring strain within metallic and ceramic components. The method presented relies on the identification of a figure of merit (FOM) that accurately describes the performance of such an instrument. For the first time, an FOM for an instrument exhibiting non-Gaussian peak shapes is described, and the methods by which this FOM may be maximized are described. Although the instrument described is based on the time-of-flight technique, the FOM derived may equally well be used to optimize a reactor-based instrument. While measuring peak position is a straightforward example, it is shown that similar figures of merit may be found for other peak shape parameters, and thus other types of instrumentation.

Abstract:
The demand for reconfigurable millimetre-wave (mm-Wave) components based on highly anisotropic liquid crystals (LC) is higher than ever before for the UK and worldwide. In this work, 60 GHz investigation on a bespoke shielded coplanar waveguide (SCPW) phase shifter structure filled with 16 types of microwave-enabled nematic LCs respectively indicates that the patterns of the device’s figure-of-merit (FoM, defined as the ratio of maximum differential phase shift to maximum insertion loss) reshuffle from those of the characterised LC materials’ FoM (defined as the ratio of tunability to maximum dissipation factor). To be more specific, GT7-29001- and MDA-03-2838-based phase shifters exhibit the highest FoM for devices, outperforming phase shifters based on GT5-28004 and TUD-566 with the highest FoM for materials. Such a mismatch between the device’s FoM and LC’s FoM implies a nonlinearly perturbed wave-occupied volume ratio effect. Furthermore, the relationship between insertion loss and the effective delay line length is nonlinear, as evidenced by measurement results of two phase shifters (0–π and 0–2π, respectively). Such nonlinearities complicate the established FoM metrics and potentially lead to a renewed interest in the selection and material synthesis of LCs to optimise reconfigurable mmWave devices, and promote their technological exploitation in phased array systems targeting demanding applications such as inter-satellite links and satellite internet.

Abstract:
The purpose of this research has been to develop a technique by which satellite constellations in different classes of orbit may be realistically compared. Previous work on constellation design has tended to focus on minimising the number of satellites required to provide coverage of the Earth. The variations in satellite vehicle design, which result from the use of different orbits, have, in general, been neglected in such analyses. The purpose of this research is to bridge this gap between constellation design and satellite design using a Figure of Merit. This Figure of Merit incorporates the coverage value provided by the satellite constellation, measured in terms of percentage coverage time, and the overall mass of the satellites which are required to provide this coverage. The coverage value is measured against a specific requirement, which is defined geographically, and which may be weighted by the user to reflect the relative importance of different regions. This allows arbitrary, asymmetric, real-world requirements to be adequately represented. This also marks something of a departure from previous work, in that the goal of much constellation design work has been to provide un-weighted coverage of the entire globe. Simplified mass models are developed for generic communications and surveillance satellites in a variety of orbits, and are then used to calculate the Figure of Merit for individual satellites. It is shown that the best solution depends crucially upon the geographical distribution of the requirement, and other user-defined parameters, such as the minimum elevation angle which can be tolerated. It is also shown that, for certain typical requirements, the Figure of Merit correctly identifies geostationary orbit (GEO) and low Earth orbit (LEO) as having particular advantages. iii The technique of characterising the requirement geographically may also be used as a means of optimising the orbital parameters of the candidate constellations, and a preliminary description of this procedure is also provided. The Figure of Merit Technique is then applied to representative communications satellite constellations in order to demonstrate its ability to differentiate between candidate options. The Figure of Merit technique is also used to investigate the possibility of using a surveillance satellite at very low altitudes.

Abstract:
The concept of a Figure-of-Merit (FoM) is developed to assess specific mission designs. The variables for a mission plan are so numerous and interdependent that a single parameter cannot accurately represent the overall design performance. The introduction of in-situ resource utilization (ISRU) and the use of advanced modular engines further complicate the problem. For these reasons, the FoM approach has been proposed to provide a more comprehensive look at the overall picture. The analysis encompasses the important design parameters in addition to the less tangible aspects such as long-term effects, reliability and reparability of the hardware, and the risks that are inevitably associated with new technologies. FoM's have been examined in detail for historical missions and for a proposed Mars Sample Return (MSR) mission. Results are presented for a conventional MSR mission along with missions incorporating ISRU and modular engines for comparison. It is concluded that this quantitative FoM approach may well become a key tool in the analysis and design of future space missions.

Full text
Abstract:
The thermoelectric dimensionless figure-of-merit, ZT, which consists of the Seebeck coefficient, , electrical resistivity,  and thermal conductivity, , is an important parameter that characterizes the energy conversion performance of thermoelectric materials and devices. Larger ZT indicates higher performance of thermoelectric device. Current techniques for determining ZT involve measurements of ,  and  individually or ZT directly, but all techniques are carried out under a small temperature difference (T). In reality, a thermoelectric device generally operates under a much larger T and with an electrical current flowing through the thermoelectric materials. Clearly, ZT values are conventionally evaluated under a condition which differs significantly from the real operating conditions of thermoelectric devices. Recently, a novel principle for ZT measurement has been proposed, which has the capability of measuring ZT values under a large T and with an electrical current flowing through the samples. The main objective of the research embodied in this thesis is to investigate experimentally the feasibility of the proposed technique and subsequently to develop a laboratory measurement system for thermoelectric materials research. The feasibility of the proposed technique was investigated initially using thermoelectric modules. The results show a reasonable agreement with conventional techniques when it is used to measure ZT under a small T. Furthermore, the investigation reveals that ZT obtained under a large T differ significantly from those obtained under a small T. This confirms the unique capability of the proposed technique. The implementation of this technique for measuring the ZT of thermoelectric materials has proved to be very challenging due to the low electrical resistance (< 0.01 ) of the material samples. Following an in-depth experimental and theoretical investigation, a new design with a modified operating principle was proposed and carried out. The measurement system based on this new design was successfully developed, which has the capability of measuring single materials with different dimensions and under a larger T. The performance of this system was investigated using a standard Bi2Te3 sample as the reference for calibration. The results show that the system has a repeatability of <10% and an accuracy of 13-32%. Investigation on single materials and segmented structures showed that there were noticeable differences between a small and a large T, which can be attributed to the Thomson effect and changes in  values. This finding contributes to an improved understanding and new knowledge of thermoelectric behaviour under a large temperature difference. The measurement technique developed in this work will provide a useful tool for investigation and for the optimization of advanced thermoelectric structures.

Abstract:
This chapter treats the second-generation Hasmonean figure John Hyrcanus to whom the virtues of leadership, priesthood, and prophecy are attributed. This ascription is reflected not only in Josephus and rabbinic literature but also receives a hostile twist in the Dead Sea Scrolls. Based on an earlier stratum from a lost Aramaic chronicle, the legend recounts an announcement of military victory by a heavenly voice in the temple. In essence this tale belongs to a genre identified as priestly temple legends. This priestly legend was in turn integrated into both the Josephan and the rabbinic contexts. The new rabbinic setting in effect “rabbinized” the image of John Hyrcanus and inverted the message of the story, using it to announce the end of the era of prophecy. In contrast, Josephus underscored the merit of prophecy and retained the full image of John as a political and military leader. For both corpora, Hyrcanus represents the acme of the Hasmonean rulership.

This article is concerned with the first philosophers and scientists in the Western tradition. It studies the Presocratic philosophers. One can approach early Greek philosophy through either particular figures of the period or thematic studies that cover broader time periods. If the term “Presocratic philosopher” is a conventional designation established by scholars, it marks out a set of figures who do seem to merit special attention. So as long as there is a tribe of philosophers in the West, they will look back to the first antecedents of their profession. And it seems that the Presocratics are the obvious candidates for founders of the movement.

Full text
Abstract:
Benjamin Franklin grew up in a devout Protestant family with limited prospects for wealth and fame. By hard work, limitless curiosity, native intelligence, and luck (what he called “providence”), Franklin became one of Philadelphia’s most prominent leaders, a world-recognized scientist, and the United States’ leading diplomat during the War for Independence. Along the way, Franklin embodied the Protestant ethics and cultural habits he learned and observed as a youth in Puritan Boston. This book follows Franklin’s remarkable career through the lens of the trends and innovations that the Protestant Reformation started (both directly and indirectly) almost two centuries earlier. The Philadelphian’s work as a printer, civic reformer, institution builder, scientist, inventor, writer, self-help dispenser, politician, and statesman was deeply rooted in the culture and outlook that Protestantism nurtured. Through the alternatives to medieval church and society, Protestants built societies and instilled habits of character and mind that allowed figures such as Franklin to build the life that he did. Through it all, Franklin could not assent to all of Protestantism’s doctrines or observe its worship. But for most of his life, he acknowledged his debt to his creator, reveled in the natural world guided by providence, and conducted himself in a way (imperfectly) to merit divine approval. This biography recognizes Franklin as a cultural or non-observant Protestant, someone who thought of himself as a Presbyterian, ordered his life as other Protestants did, sometimes went to worship services, read his Bible, and prayed, but could not go all the way and join a church.

Abstract:
AbstractThe quest for ubiquitous wireless connectivity, drives an increasing demand for compact and efficient means of frequency generation. Conventional synthesizer options, however, generally trade one requirement for the other, achieving either excellent levels of efficiency by leveraging LC-oscillators, or a very compact area by relying on ring-oscillators. This chapter describes a recently introduced class of inductorless frequency synthesizers, based on the periodic realignment of a ring-oscillator, that have the potential to break this tradeoff. After analyzing their jitter-power product, the conditions that ensure optimum performance are derived and a novel digital-to-time converter range-reduction technique is introduced, to enable low-jitter and low-power fractional-N frequency synthesis. A prototype, which implements the proposed design guidelines and techniques, has been fabricated in 65 nm CMOS. It occupies a core area of 0:0275 mm$$^{2}$$ 2 and covers the 1:6-to-3:0 GHz range, achieving an absolute rms jitter (integrated from 30 kHz-to-30 MHz) of 397 fs at 2:5 mW power. With a corresponding jitter-power figure-of-merit of −244 dB in the fractional-N mode, the prototype outperforms prior state-of-the-art inductorless frequency synthesizers.

Abstract:
Several different types of detectors, software, and hardware designs are employed in instruments used to monitor radioactive content of freight shipments in order to detect illicit trafficking of nuclear materials. The instruments can be container monitors, hand-held radiation detectors, mobile analysis systems, or fixed radiation portal monitors. However, within the various groupings (e.g., portal monitors), all instruments are expected to solve the same problem, that is, to detect and identify any radioactive material present according to the prescribed investigative procedure or CONOPS. The best way to compare the performance of different instruments is with a numerical score or Figure of Merit (FOM). The FOM must quantify the performance of the instrument with respect to true positives (TP), false positives (FP), and false negatives (FN). The minimization of FN for certain radionuclides (e.g., uranium and plutonium or other Special Nuclear Material (SNM)) is more important than the minimization of FN for non-threat nuclides (e.g., low level NORM). In a similar way, the minimization of FP for SNM is more important than falsely reporting the common NORM nuclides which represent no threat. System performance depends on the measurement detail (e.g., transit speed through a portal, measurement time in general, amount and distribution of NORM), therefore the test conditions should also be included in the statement of the FOM. The FOM is expected to vary significantly with the above measurement details. A FOM has been developed based on the number of true positives (TP), the number of false important positives (FIP), the number of FP, the number of true positives for SNM (TPSNM), and the number of false positives for SNM (FPSNM). This formula rates the overall performance with extra weight given to FP and FN for SNM. Examples will be shown for testing of portal monitors.
