Role of Sleep Duration and Timing on Paediatric BMI Across Childhood and Adolescence: Do Both Matter? [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Adequate sleep duration is a prevention factor for paediatric obesity, but the role of timing is still unclear. Objectives To investigate associations of sleep duration and timing with BMI in a large paediatric database. Methods Medical chart and survey data were collected from 29 409 children aged 2–18 years who attended well‐child

(Invited) towards a vertical and damage free post-etch InGaAs fin profile: dry etch processing, sidewall damage assessment and mitigation options [PDF]
Based on current projections, III-Vs are expected to replace Si as the n-channel solution in FinFETs at the 7nm technology node. The realisation of III-V FinFETs entails top-down fabrication via dry etch techniques. Vertical fins in conjunction with high
