Abstract
This paper, for the first time, presents a lateral tunneling transistor based on a two-dimensional boron nitride (BN) and hexagonal boron-carbon-nitrogen (hBCN) heterostructure. The device operation is analyzed based on a non-equilibrium Greens Function (NEGF) method and an atomistic tight-binding (TB) model. The TB hopping parameters are achieved by fitting the bandstructure to density functional theory (DFT) results. This model has been used to calculate the electrical characteristics of the device, such as ION/IOFFratio, subthreshold swing, and intrinsic gate-delay time. The results indicate a switching ratio of over eight orders of magnitude, much higher than the previous two-dimensional...

Abstract
The novel idea of the Hydromagnetic Micropump and Flow Controller (HMFC) is used in this paper to construct a laboratory setup capable of bidirectional pumping and controlling the flow in microtubes. A laboratory setup, which contains no moving parts, is integrated with a pressure-driven flow setup to make the presented HMFC device. The device operation is based on controllable motion of magnetic particles, added to the carrier fluid, caused by the magnetic field, produced by solenoids located just next to the microtube. The magnitude of these forces is proportional to the strength and gradient of magnetic field which, in turn, is related to the electrical current and arrangement of the...
