A silicone nanocrystal tunnel field effect transistor
(2014)Abstract : In this work, we demonstrate a silicon nanocrystal Field Effect Transistor (ncFET). Its operation is similar to that of a Tunnelling Field Effect Transistor (TFET) with two barriers in series. The tunnelling ... -
A study of the factors suspected to influence the grilse ratio of Atlantic salmon (salmo salar linnaeus)
(Université de Sherbrooke, 1969)The fact that some salmon spend only one year and a little more feeding in the sea before returning to their home river has been clearly demonstrated through scale reading and tagging experiments. These fish are called ... -
A study on radiochemical errors in polymer gel dosimeters
(Université de Sherbrooke, 2012)À ce jour, les seul dosimètres purement tridimensionnels (3D) sont basés sur la détection d’une propriété physique résultant d’une série de réactions chimiques radio-induites dans un volume de gel ou de plastique. Les ... -
A study on telomere protection and telomerase-and-cap-independent mechanisms of telomere maintenance in yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae
(Université de Sherbrooke, 2008)An SGA approach to discover cdc13-1ts supressors. Telomeres, the DNA-protein complexes at the end of eukaryotic chromosomes, are essential for chromosomal stability. In yeast, the telomeric single-strand binding protein ... -
A tale of two models: changes in psychological need satisfaction and physical activity over 3 years
(2016)Abstract: Objective: (a) Examine longitudinal measurement invariance of scores from psychological need satisfaction (PNS) scales and (b) examine if changes in PNS were associated with change in moderate-to-vigorous physical ... -

Absence of inspiratory laryngeal constrictor muscle activity during nasal neurally adjusted ventilatory assist in newborn lambs
(2012)It has been demonstrated that a progressive increase in nasal pressure support ventilation (nPSV) leads to an active inspiratory glottal closure in non-sedated newborn lambs, which limits lung ventilation (24, 33). Unlike ... -
