Seedless superfilling by copper electrodeposition is demonstrated on sub-micrometer trenches with Ir barrier layers deposited by atomic layer deposition. The Cu deposition is seen to occur smoothly and continuously on the Ir without the benefit of a copper seed layer. The work supports efforts to develop diffusion bar…

Finite element simulations of single pit propagation have previously been combined with stochastic models of pit nucleation. In this paper, we use this model to focus on the possible interactions between pits by first considering the effect of a propagating pit (the primary pit) on the probability of pit initiation at…

Europium-activated ZnS nanocrystals were synthesized by a low temperature tartaric acid assisted sol-gel method. The emission peak of Eu2+ due to the 4f65d1 →4f 7 transitions at 480nm was observed in the emission spectra on excitation at 260nm. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) investigations were carried out to unde…

The performance of two fog-type porcelain insulators is investigated in the case of condensation wetting and uniform as well as non-uniform contaminant distribution. Both insulators have been employed simultaneously on the same transmission line poles and exceed the minimum required creepage distance. However, their f…

Thin films of Nd2O3 have been studied. For the amorphous phase the dielectric constant is ~ 11 whilst the refractive index is 1.76 {plus minus} 0.02, in the cubic form these values are ~ 13.6 - 15.4 and 1.93 {plus minus} 0.02. Hexagonal films have dielectric constants in the range 17 - 21 and estimates based upon the…

In the present study, chitosan was used as the basis for corrosion resistant coating. Chitosan suffers from two inherent weaknesses as a coating material namely high hydrophilicity and poor adhesive strength with Al 2024 T3 alloy. In the present study, chitosan structure was modified using epoxy functional silane and…

We use grand-canonical-ensemble self-consistent field theory to study blends of both moderately and strongly segregated homopolymers A and B with some diblock copolymer AC, where C is attracted to B. We derive an analytical condition for the Flory−Huggins interaction parameters, which describes a balanced copolymer su…

PhotoDSC has been applied to follow the global kinetics of chain scissions resulting from the UV light irradiation or from the thermal degradation of a high molecular weight PEO (4 x 10(6) g x mol(-1)). Infrared spectroscopy, XRD measurements and rheology experiments were performed to evidence the occurrence of chain…

The rotational power losses measured in the clockwise and anticlockwise directions differ noticeably. There are many factors that contribute to this difference, but these have not previously been explained in the literature. A discussion on the physical phenomena that contribute to the power loss along with the experi…

We show using density functional calculations that the small e'g Fermi surfaces in NaxCoO2 are destroyed by Na disorder. This provides a means to resolve the prediction of these sections in band structure calculations with their nonobservation in angle resolved photoemission experiments.

The electrochemical impedance diagrams obtained at the corrosion potential for pure Mg or for AZ91 alloy presented the same shape after an immersion time of few days. It was thus assumed that the magnesium matrix of the AZ91 alloy corrodes first. The diagrams are characterized by two capacitive loops and an inductive…
