Hot Carrier Degradation

ABSTRACTAn alternative approach for modeling the hot carrier degradation of the Si/SiO2 interface based on the dispersive characteristics of the interface trap generation has been proposed. The timedependent interface trap generation has been modeled using the stretched exponential expression. The conventional power law of degradation is just the approximation of this general form. Very good agreement has been found between the theoretical model and the experimental data. This approach gives more physical insight into the understanding of the mechanism for the interface trap generation.

Abstract The propagation of Rayleigh waves with periods of 0.4 to 2.0 seconds across the Cincinnati arch is investigated. The region of investigation includes southern Indiana and Ohio and northern Kentucky. The experimental data for all paths are fitted by a three-layer model of varying layer thickness but of fixed velocity in each layer. The resulting inferred structural picture is in good agreement with the known basement trends of the region. The velocities of the best fitting theoretical model agree well with velocity-depth data from a well in southern Indiana.

Axial Flow Compressors

A theoretical model is proposed for the spanwise mixing caused by periodic incoming wakes in the context of turbulent diffusion in axial-flow compressors prior to repeating-stage conditions. The model was used to predict the spanwise mixing coefficients across a stator of a single-stage compressor without IGVs. The correctness of the theory was demonstrated by the results that the predicted values were in good agreement with the associated experimental data.

A full theoretical model of a low-temperature differential Stirling engine is developed in the current paper. The model, which starts from the first principles, gives a full differential description of the major components of the engine: the behaviour of the gas in the expansion and the compression spaces; the behaviour of the gas in the regenerator; the dynamic behaviour of the displacer; and the power piston/flywheel assembly. A small fully instrumented engine is used to validate the model. The theoretical model is in good agreement with the experimental data, and describes well all features exhibited by the engine.

Good Agreement

An induction electrohydrodynamic (EHD) pump in axisymmetric, vertical configuration was designed and built. The flow rates were measured for various temperature profiles and several values of frequency, voltage, wavelength, and electric conductivity. The experimental data are generally in good agreement with the theoretical model presented in Part 1. With the present apparatus at relatively low voltages, velocities four times higher than natural circulation velocity are easily obtained. The external pressure load and entrance temperature profile play important roles on the operation of the pump and must be considered carefully in the design.

Good Agreement

On the basis of the thermal equation-of-state a simple theoretical model is developed to study the pressure dependence of melting temperature. The model is then applied to compute the high pressure melting curve of 10 metals (Cu, Mg, Pb, Al, In, Cd, Zn, Au, Ag and Mn). It is found that the melting temperature is not linear with pressure and the slope [Formula: see text] of the melting curve decreases continuously with the increase in pressure. The results obtained with the present model are also compared with the previous theoretical and experimental data. A good agreement between theoretical and experimental result supports the validity of the present model.

Hot Carrier Degradation

AbstractNon-uniform hot-carrier degradation in n-channel polycide-gate MOSFET's with different thicknesses of the poly-Si film, and in p-channel polycide-gate MOSFET's with TiSi2- or CoSi2-gate-silicide, is studied. The n-MOSFET's with the thinnest poly-Si film, show an increased interface trap generation, while the influence of the gate-silicide material on the degradation behaviour of the p-MOSFET's is found to be very small. The results are evaluated in terms of the effect of mechanical stress on the degradation characteristics: favourable for compressive mechanical stress and unfavourable for tensile stress. A correlation with stress measurements by micro-Raman spectroscopy is made.

A simple theoretical model is developed to study the size and shape dependence of Debye temperature and Raman frequency of nanomaterial. We have studied the effect of size and shape on Debye temperature of nanocrystalline Fe , Co , Al and Ag . The model is extended to study the effect of size and shape on the Raman frequency of nanocrystalline SnO 2, CeO 2 and CdSe . The results obtained are compared with the available experimental data. A good agreement between the theory and experimental data supports the validity of the model developed. We also report the results for nanowire and nanofilm in the absence of experimental data, which may help the researchers engaged in the experimental studies.
