The performance of MoS 2 -based devices depends on contact resistance, influenced by the Schottky barrier. Typically, metal-contacted MoS 2 devices show non-ohmic behavior around 77 K due to excessive Schottky barrier height and wide depletion region, limiting carrier injection. This study explores n-type MoS 2 -based Ni-contacted field effect transistors from 300 K to 4 K to find out the behavior of carrier injection. We observe ohmic conduction from 300 K to 77 K due to the minimized Schottky barrier. The low SBH justifies the enhanced carrier injection, vital for reliable low-temperature operation. However, the transition from linear to nonlinear behavior below 77 K indicates the domination of contact resistance. This investigation provides critical insights into carrier injection at various temperatures, advancing the understanding of metal-TMD interfaces.

Real-world surveillance systems are dynamically evolving, requiring a person Re-identification model to continuously handle newly incoming data from various domains. To cope with these dynamics, Lifelong ReID (LReID) has been proposed to learn and accumulate knowledge across multiple domains incrementally. However, LReID models need to be trained on large-scale labeled data for each unseen domain, which are typically inaccessible due to privacy and cost concerns. In this paper, we propose a new paradigm called Continual Few-shot ReID (CFReID), which requires models to be incrementally trained using few-shot data and tested on all seen domains. Under few-shot conditions, CFREID faces two core challenges: 1) learning knowledge from few-shot data of unseen domain, and 2) avoiding catastrophic forgetting of seen domains. To tackle these two challenges, we propose a Stable Distribution Alignment (SDA) framework from feature distribution perspective. Specifically, our SDA is composed of two modules, i.e., Meta Distribution Alignment (MDA) and Prototype-based Few-shot Adaptation (PFA). MDA aligns seen and unseen distributions through a prior distribution and employs meta-learning to simulate the training-testing process, enabling the model to perform domain adaptation with few-shot data in new domains. PFA incorporates a prototype anchor loss to enhance the learning signals, and utilizes prototype-guided feature learning to stabilize the source domain feature distribution while learning discriminative features, aiming to mitigate catastrophic forgetting. To support the study of CFReID, we establish an evaluation benchmark for CFReID on five publicly available ReID datasets. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our SDA can enhance the few-shot learning and anti-forgetting capabilities under few-shot conditions. Notably, our approach, using only 5% of the data, i.e., 32 IDs, significantly outperforms LReID’s state-of-the-art performance, which requires 700 to 1,000 IDs. So

With the advent of the Internet-of-Things (IoT) and smart grid, further optimisation potential can be explored from the load side in the field of power management. it opens more opportunities for load management to be done in a more granular fashion. In this work, one method for smart load management of electric vehicle (EV) charging profile is proposed. More specifically, this is done by scheduling the charging sessions during periods of lower electricity spot prices. This results in lower EV charging costs. The resilience of the power grid is also strengthened by shifting the EV charging loads to a period of lower electricity demand. This optimised charging scheme is applied in a multi-EV system in MATLAB. The optimisation results are provided to verify the efficacy of the proposed charging scheme.

Dear Editor,This paper is concerned with the underwater localization based on acoustic signals. Specifically, we will focus on the search of an underwater target that can constantly broadcast a beacon signal, such as a black box. Common measurements for localization are Doppler shift [1], time of arrival(ToA) [2]–[4], time difference of arrival(TDoA) [5], [6], angle of arrival(AoA) [7], etc.

The issue of thermal instability in Bismuth (Bi) contacts hinders the reliability of high-performance molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) transistors in practical applications. Here we present a new method using a semimetal alloy to improve the thermal stability and contact resistance of MoS 2 transistors. Through this approach, the devices with TiBi alloy contacts withstand the backend-of-the-line (BEOL) processes, maintaining a high on-state current after 1 hour of 400 °C annealing. Bi-alloy contacts hold promise for improving MoS 2 -based electronic devices, contributing to future developments in semiconductor technology.
