Performance of a spin-based insulated gate field effect transistor
Fundamental physical properties limiting the performance of spin field effect
transistors are compared to those of ordinary (charge-based) field effect
transistors. Instead of raising and lowering a barrier to current flow these
spin transistors use static spin-selective barriers and gate control of spin
relaxation. The different origins of transistor action lead to distinct size
dependences of the power dissipation in these transistors and permit
sufficiently small spin-based transistors to surpass the performance of
charge-based transistors at room temperature or above. This includes lower
threshold voltages, smaller gate capacitances, reduced gate switching energies
and smaller source-drain leakage currents.Comment: 4 pages including 3 figures, APL in pres

Regional-scale brine migration along vertical pathways due to CO2 injection - Part 1: The participatory modeling approach
Saltwater intrusion into potential drinking water aquifers due to the injection of CO₂ into deep saline aquifers is one of the potential hazards associated with the geological storage of CO₂. Thus, in a site selection process, models for predicting the fate of the displaced brine are required, for example, for a risk assessment or the optimization of pressure management concepts. From the very beginning, this research on brine migration aimed at involving expert and stakeholder knowledge and assessment in simulating the impacts of injecting CO₂ into deep saline aquifers by means of a participatory modeling process. The involvement exercise made use of two approaches. First, guideline-based interviews were carried out, aiming at eliciting expert and stakeholder knowledge and assessments of geological structures and mechanisms affecting CO₂-induced brine migration. Second, a stakeholder workshop including the World Café format yielded evaluations and judgments of the numerical modeling approach, scenario selection, and preliminary simulation results. The participatory modeling approach gained several results covering brine migration in general, the geological model sketch, scenario development, and the review of the preliminary simulation results. These results were included in revised versions of both the geological model and the numerical model, helping to improve the analysis of regional-scale brine migration along vertical pathways due to CO₂ injection
