Fourier transform techniques are particularly suitable for modelling woven fabrics with periodic structures. These techniques allow us to analyse the periodicity and the directionality of repeated elements. In fact, while passing through the Fourier spectrum, each periodic element is characterised by a peak whose valu…

The stress evolution model (SEM) of Korhonenet al., is used to calculate the void nucleation time in a large number of short interconnects (lengths up to 50 μm). Finite element calculations show that the effect of the nonlinearity in the SEM model is small, and that a mesh size of the order of the grain size is quite…

Polycrystalline Fe3O4 films were deposited on the p-Si wafers using reactive sputtering to form the polycrystalline Fe3O4/p-Si heterostructures. A rectifying behavior was observed in the polycrystalline Fe3O4/p-Si heterostructures due to the formation of p-n junction between Fe3O4 and p-Si. The metal-insulator transit…

Moderate-pressure conditions of 2 GPa has been used to stabilize the complex perovskite CeCu3Mn4O12. It can be considered as a derivative of the parent CaCu3Mn4O12 compound, by full replacement of Ca by Ce cations. The electronic injection leads to a very substantial increment of the ferromagnetic TC, up to 395 K. Thi…
