We investigated the effect of the interface trap charge in a monolithic three-dimensional inverter structure composing of JLFETs (M3DINV-JLFET), using the interface trap charge distribution extracted in the previous study. The effect of interface trap charge was compared with a conventional M3DINV composing of MOSFETs (M3DINV-MOSFETs) by technology computer-aided design simulation. When the interface trap charges in both M3DINV-JLFET and M3DINV-MOSFET are added, the threshold voltages, on-current levels, and subthreshold swings of both JLFETs and MOSFETs increase, decrease, and increase, respectively, and switching voltages and propagation delays of M3DINV are shifted and increased, respectively. However, since JLFET and MOSFET have different current paths of bulk and interface in channel, respectively, MOSFET is more affected by the interface trap, and M3DINV-JLFET has almost less effect of interface trap at different thickness of interlayer dielectric, compared to M3DINV-MOSFET.

In the SEM, contrast in the image is the result of variations in the volume secondary electron emission and backscatter emission which reaches the detector and serves to intensity modulate the signal for the CRT's. This emission is a function of the accelerating potential, material density, chemistry, crystallography, local charge effects, surface morphology and especially the angle of the incident electron beam with the particular surface site. Aside from the influence of object inclination, the surface morphology is the most important feature In producing contrast. “Specimen collection“ is the name given the shielding of the collector by adjacent parts of the specimen, producing much image contrast. This type of contrast can occur for both secondary and backscatter electrons even though the secondary electrons take curved paths to the detector-collector.Figure 1 demonstrates, in a unique and striking fashion, the specimen collection effect. The subject material here is Armco Iron, 99.85% purity, which was spark machined.

Abstract. Dispersive properties of linear and nonlinear MHD waves, including shear, kinetic, electron inertial Alfvén, and slow and fast magnetosonic waves are analyzed using both analytical expansions and a novel technique of dispersion diagrams. The analysis is extended to explicitly include space charge effects in non-neutral plasmas. Nonlinear soliton solutions, here called alfvenons, are found to represent either convergent or divergent electric field structures with electric potentials and spatial dimensions similar to those observed by satellites in auroral regions. Similar solitary structures are postulated to be created in the solar corona, where fast alfvenons can provide acceleration of electrons to hundreds of keV during flares. Slow alfvenons driven by chromospheric convection produce positive potentials that can account for the acceleration of solar wind ions to 300–800 km/s. New results are discussed in the context of observations and other theoretical models for nonlinear Alfvén waves in space plasmas.

The subject of space charge in ionization detectors is reviewed, showing how the observations and the formalism used to describe the effects have evolved, starting with applications to calorimeters and reaching recent, large time-projection chambers. General scaling laws, and different ways to present and model the effects are presented. The relations between space-charge effects and the boundary conditions imposed on the side faces of the detector are discussed, together with a design solution that mitigates some of the effects. The implications of the relative size of drift length and transverse detector size are illustrated. Calibration methods are briefly discussed.
