Ferroelectric Materials for Next-Generation Non-Volatile Memory Applications
Abstract: The continuous scaling of conventional memory technologies is increasingly constrained by limitations in power consumption, speed, endurance, and integration density. As data-intensive applications such as artificial intelligence, Internet of Things, and edge computing demand fast and energy-efficient memory solutions, alternative non-volatile memory technologies have gained significant attention. Ferroelectric materials, characterized by their reversible spontaneous polarization, offer a promising pathway toward next-generation non-volatile memory due to their intrinsic non-volatility, low operating …

Listening to Colonial Disruption: Sound, Silence, and Cultural Memory in the Works of Chinua Achebe
Abstract: This article examines the significance of sound and silence in the fiction of Chinua Achebe, arguing that auditory experience functions as a crucial medium through which cultural memory, identity, and resistance are represented. Although Achebe’s novels have been extensively studied in relation to colonialism, nationalism, and language politics, comparatively little attention has been paid to their acoustic dimensions. Drawing on postcolonial theory, oral tradition studies, and cultural memory studies, this …

The Awareness–Behaviour Paradox: Media Literacy and Social Media Risk Behaviour Among Nigerian Undergraduates
Abstract: Background: The proliferation of internet-capable devices and social media platforms has created an intricate web of risks for Nigerian undergraduates, including cyberbullying, addiction, misinformation, and exposure to indecent content. While media literacy has been widely proposed in Western scholarship as a sustainable intervention for responsible online behaviour, its protective mechanisms remain insufficiently understood in non-Western contexts, particularly with respect to the psychological pathways through which literacy operates.Objectives: This study examined …

Improvements in Analog Performance of Dual Metal Gate based Silicon-on-Insulator Junctionless Transistor with Pocket Doped Window
Abstract: This paper elucidates the impact of the pocket doped window on the analog performance of dual metal gate based silicon-on-insulator junctionless transistor (DMG SOIJLT). The analog parameters of the proposed SOIJLT are compared with DMG based conventional SOIJLT. The findings of analog performance comparison reveal that transconductance (gm), transconductance generation factor (TGF), output conductance (gd), output resistance (r0), intrinsic gain (AV), and cut-off frequency (fT) have improved for DMG PD-SOIJLT …

Gamma Irradiation Effects on Structural and Optical Properties of PVA/Al₂O₃/TiC Polymer Nanocomposites for Optoelectronic Applications
Abstract: PVA/TiC/Al2O3 nanocomposite (PTA) films were successfully prepared via the solution casting method. The impact of high-dose gamma (γ) irradiation (30 kGy) on the structural and optical properties of PVA/TiC/Al2O3 nanocomposites was systematically explored using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and UV–Visible spectroscopy. XRD analysis confirmed the semi-crystalline nature of the nanocomposites, which was found to decrease upon incorporation of Al₂O₃ nanoparticles and exposure to …
