Gsm Mobile App: A Solution To The Challenges Of The Current Voting System In Tertiary Institutions In Nigeria

ABSTRACT The word “vote” means to choose from a list, to elect or to determine. The main goal of voting (in a scenario involving the students of a given tertiary institution), is to come up with student-leaders of the students’ choice.Most tertiary institutions, FUTO not an exception have problems when it comes to voting. Some of the problems involved include rigging votes during election, insecure or inaccessible polling arena, inexperienced personnel and so on because voting in these...

Effect Of Zn Doping On In2se3 Thin Films For Phase Change Random Access Memory (Pram) Applications

Abstract Phase Change Memory is one of the most promising concepts for the future generations of Non Volatile Memories. Extensive work is nowadays performed on the Phase Change Materials to optimize the cell properties for specific applications. In particular, for the embedded memory market, it is desirable to reduce the writing current while raising data retention capability. In2Se3 has shown remarkable characteristics for phase change random access memory (PRAM) applications. Among the rema...

Characterization Of Cuxny And Cdo:Al Thin Films For Solar Cell Applications

BSTRACT A solar cell is a device that converts light energy into electricity by photovoltaic effect. The photovoltaic effect refers to photons of light exciting electrons into a higher state of energy, allowing them to act as charge careers for an electric current. Materials presently used for solar cell fabrication include silicon, gallium arsenide (GaAs) among others. However, these materials are expensive and not readily available. As a result, there is need to search for alternative mater...

Fabrication And Characterization Of Al/Znse Thin Film Schottky Diode

ABSTRACT The desire for smaller, more efficient and faster semiconductor devices has made the design of the Schottky devices, material preparation and characterization very vital. There is little research if any on the effect of Schottky contact geometry on I-V characteristics. In this study various circular and rectangular thin filmed Al/ZnSe Schottky diodes were designed by varying; the shape, area of the Schottky contact, the inter electrode distance and thickness of the thin film ZnSe. F...

Effect of Surface Passivation on Doped Tin (IV) Oxide Thin Films for Gas Sensing Applications

ABSTRACT In this work, SnO2 thin films were deposited on a glass substrate by spray pyrolysis technique using aqueous solution of tin (IV) chloride (SnCl4.5H2O) dissolved in ethanol. Different types of thin films such as SnO2, F: SnO2, Pd: SnO2 and Pd-F: SnO2 were deposited at a substrate temperature of 450 0C. Post deposition treatment: annealing and passivation were performed in a tube furnace at 450 0C. The samples, both as prepared and treated, were thereafter characterized by optical and...

Design And Fabrication Of A Portable Spectrometer To Investigate Optical Properties Of Thin Films

ABSTRACT Optical spectroscopy is a non-destructive and contactless method for characterizing optical and electrical properties of thin films; reflectance, transmittance, refractive index, permittivity and band gap. These properties determine the application of a thin film as a polarizer, laser, solar cell or photodiode among others. To measure accurately optical properties of thin films, the common types of optical spectrometers used are ellipsometers and spectrophotometers. However these ins...

Crystallization Kinetics Of Inxsey Thin Films For Phase Change Memory (Pram) Applications

ABSTRACT Chalcogenide phase change memory is a potential replacement to flash memory due to excellent properties such as high storage density, rapid phase transition and archival stability. Phase change non-volatile semiconductor memory technology is based on an electrically initiated, reversible rapid amorphous-to-crystalline phase change process in multicomponent chalcogenide alloy materials similar to those used in rewritable optical disks. For over a decade Ge2Sb2Te5 (GST) compound has be...

Optical And Electrical Characterization Of Znse-Cuxoy Thin Films For Solar Cell Applications

ABSTRACT Solar energy which is a free and abundant form of energy has the potential to provide sufficient power to the growing number of industries and population especially in the developing world. Its maximum exploitation has however been hindered by the high cost of silicon based solar cells which currently dominate the market. It has been reported that copper based thin film solar cell technology is known to be 40% cheaper than silicon based solar cells. In order to effectively exploit s...

Characterization Of SnSe-CdO:Sn P-N Junction For Solar Cell Applications

ABSTRACT Energy crisis occasioned by a decline in the availability of fossil fuels and increasing carbon dioxide emissions that are causing global warming has enhanced interest in the development of clean and renewable sources of energy. Solar energy has a great potential of meeting a large fraction of energy needs using photovoltaics. While most PV cells in use today are Silicon-based, cells of other semiconductor materials have been manufactured. Considerable research has been focused in se...

Electrical And Optical Characterization Of CdxZn1-xS AND PbS Thin Films For Photovoltaic Applications

Abstract In this research an n-type CdxZn1-xS and p-type PbS thin films were optimised for solar cell applications employing chemical bath deposition technique. The thin films were prepared using thiourea and nitrates of cadmium, zinc and lead. Deposition of optimised CdxZn1-xS was done by CBD at 820 C and in alkaline conditions while that of PbS was done at room temperature and both films at normal atmospheric pressure utilizing aqueous conditions. This study concentrated on optimising...

Design And Development Of Computer Based Test System To Facilitate E-Exam.

ABSTRACT The purpose of this project was to design and develop a Computer Based Testing (CBT) system in order to facilitate the process of conducting e-examinations especially in tertiary institutions. There is a growing need to find an easy and effective way to carryout continuous assessments for the increasing population of students. The CBT system will afford instructors the opportunity to assign different weights to the multiple choice questions. The method adopted was a client/server ba...

Design And Construction Of A Wireless Smart Meter

Abstract Consumers’ complaints of estimated bills from the Utility have risen to an alarming extent in recent years. On the other hand, Utility incurs huge losses attributing it to electric energy consumption theft among consumers. These complaints by the utility and the consumer led to the quest for a system that in addition to recording energy consumption data, will be able to compute and report the data to the Utility remotely. This work proposes the implementation of smart meter which ...

Design And Construction Of A Robotic Arm With Adaptive Behaviour

ABSTRACT This project work covers the design and construction of a robotic arm mechanically capable of 5 Degrees of Freedom. It solves the problem of automatically detecting and picking up objects placed within distances of 10-30cm round the robot base platform. It does this by using a simplified forward and inverse kinematic relation modeled in two dimensional robot workspace. The work does not cover the more general case, of an n-linked (n>2) robotic arm working within a three dimensional ...

Design And Construction Of A 40a Intelligent Charge Controller For The Department Of Electrical And Electronic Engineering

ABSTRACT This project presents a 40A maximum power point tracking solar charge controller. The MPPT charge controller tries to keep the voltage and the power stable. The MPPT charge controller will harvest more power from the solar array – it will adjust its input voltage to harvest the maximum power from the solar array and then transform this power to supply the varying voltage requirement of the battery plus load. An MPPT charge controller is an electronic DC to DC converter that optimi...
