Hydrodynamics of self-alignment interactions with precession and derivation of the Landau-Lifschitz-Gilbert equation [PDF]
, 2011 We consider a kinetic model of self-propelled particles with alignment interaction and with precession about the alignment direction. We derive a hydrodynamic system for the local density and velocity orientation of the particles.

Self‐aligned graphene transistor [PDF]
Electronics Letters, 2017 A novel self‐aligned (SA) graphene FET (GFET) with small access resistance is fabricated. Only one photolithography is needed to define the gate and high gate capacitive efficiency is obtained using a metal gate‐stack. In addition, damages to graphene resulting from the plasma are avoided.
