The efficient clustering of a sensor network that can save energy and improve coverage efficiency is an important requirement for many upper layer network functions. This study concentrates on how to form clusters with high uniformity while prolonging the network lifetime. A novel clustering scheme named power- and coverage- aware clustering (PCC) is proposed, which can adaptively select cluster heads according to a hybrid of the nodesI residual energy and loyalty degree. Additionally, the PCC scheme is independent of node distribution or density, and it is free of node hardware limitations, such as self-locating capability and time synchronization. Experiment results show that the scheme performs well in terms of cluster size (and its standard deviation), number of nodes alive over time, total energy consumption, etc.展开更多

However, the "sneaking current problem", which can lead to read failure, is a severe challenge in crossbar arrays. To inhibit the sneaking current from unselected cells, the integration of individual selection devices is necessary. In this work, we report a novel TaOx-based selector exhibiting a trapezoidal band structure formed by tuning the concentration of defects in the oxide. Salient features such as a high current density (1 MA·cm^-2), high selectivity (5 × 10^4), low off-state current (-10 pA), robust endurance (〉10^10), self-compliance, and excellent uniformity were successfully achieved. The integrated one-selector one-resistor (1S1R) device exhibits high nonlinearity in the low resistance state (LRS), which is quite effective in solving the sneaking current issue.展开更多
