Higher Mental Functions of the Brain: Language01:10

Higher Mental Functions of the Brain: Language

Language is a system of communication that allows the expression of thoughts, ideas, and feelings. The brain processes language in both hemispheres.
Language formation and comprehension take place in the dominant hemisphere. The dominant hemisphere is responsible for understanding the meaning of spoken, written, or sign language, as well as the ability to communicate. For most people, the left hemisphere is the dominant one. The right hemisphere, then, gives tone and emotional context to the...
Cerebral Hemispheres01:05

Cerebral Hemispheres

The human brain, a complex organ, is functionally divided into two cerebral hemispheres—left and right. These hemispheres are interconnected by a structure of paramount importance, the corpus callosum. This substantial bundle of neural fibers is not just a bridge between the hemispheres but a crucial element for the brain's comprehensive functioning. It enables efficient communication between the two hemispheres, allowing each side of the brain to control and receive sensory and motor...
Lateralization01:28

Lateralization

Brain lateralization refers to the division of mental processes and functions between the two hemispheres of the brain, a phenomenon that optimizes neural efficiency and underpins complex abilities in humans. This specialization allows each hemisphere to perform tasks where it has a comparative advantage, facilitating more refined cognitive capabilities across different domains.
Language and Cognition01:27

Language and Cognition

Language serves as a bridge between ideas and communication, influencing how individuals perceive and interact with the world. Psychologists have long debated whether language shapes thought or vice versa. This discussion gained grip with Edward Sapir and Benjamin Lee Whorf in the 1940s, who proposed that language determines thought, a concept known as linguistic determinism. They suggested that the vocabulary and structure of a language influence how its speakers think and perceive reality.
Learning Disabilities01:25

Learning Disabilities

Learning disabilities are cognitive disorders caused by neurological impairments that affect cognitive functions like language and reading, without indicating overall intellectual or developmental challenges. These disabilities differ from global intellectual or developmental disabilities as they are limited to distinct cognitive functions. Common learning disabilities include dysgraphia, dyslexia, and dyscalculia, each of which impacts unique aspects of learning.

Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Nanotechnology
  • Electronics Engineering

Background:

  • Solution-based processes offer cost-effective and simple fabrication of electronics and sensors.
  • Existing methods suffer from poor patterning, low resolution (micrometers), and high line edge roughness (LER).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a high-resolution, high-fidelity patterning technique for metal oxide electronics using solution-based methods.
  • To demonstrate the fabrication of functional thin film transistors (TFTs) and logic circuits with the new process.

  • Introduced a surface energy-directed assembly (SEDA) process for metal oxide patterning.
  • Investigated the effect of relative humidity on pattern fidelity, identifying optimal conditions below 30% RH.
  • Fabricated indium oxide channel TFTs, indium tin oxide electrodes, and aluminum oxide dielectrics.

Main Results:

  • Achieved a resolution of 800 nm and LER of 16 nm, representing a 2-order magnitude improvement.
  • Demonstrated high pattern fidelity at low relative humidities due to negligible water condensation.
  • Successfully fabricated functional TFTs and logic gate circuits (NOT, NOR, NAND, AND).

Conclusions:

  • The SEDA process offers a significant advancement in solution-based patterning for high-performance metal oxide electronics.
  • The process is suitable for large-area fabrication of functional electronic devices.
  • Control of humidity is critical for achieving high-resolution patterns in solution-based assembly.
