We derive the effective low-energy theory for interacting electrons in metallic single-wall carbon nanotubes, taking into account phonon exchange due to twisting, stretching, and breathing modes within a continuum elastic description. In many cases, the nanotube can be described as a standard Luttinger liquid with pos…

Electromigration is caused by high current density stress in metallization patterns and is a major source of breakdown in electronic devices. It is therefore an important reliability issue to verify current densities within all stressed metallization patterns. In this paper we propose a new methodology for hierarchica…

The change in PD (partial discharge) pulse shape for a void bounded with LDPE was measured using a time-resolved measurement system with an ultra-wideband detector. Phase-resolved patterns also were obtained by a conventional PD measuring system. The frequency spectrum analysis of PD pulse waveform showed that ageing…

UHF patterns of discharges representative of that occurring in a transformer were recorded by simulating them in a 220 kV test tank. The influence of the location of the UHF sensor, type of barrier and partial discharge (PD) magnitude on UHF sensitivity was studied. Information concerning the temporal development of d…

Joints are generally known to be the weakest link of underground distribution lines. One of the most common failure modes is attributable to the occurrence of dielectric breakdown at the cable-joint interface. Interfacial pressure is known to be a key factor in the interfacial breakdown strength: a high interfacial pr…

A novel approach for the detection of molecular interactions is presented in which a colorimetric resonant diffractive grating surface is used as a surface binding platform. A guided mode resonant phenomenon is used to produce an optical structure that, when illuminated with white light, is designed to reflect only a…

Today, most railway applications use hybrid power modules. These IGBT modules are constituted of several dielectric materials to achieve chip packaging. Due to the presence of high voltage, new phenomena which could be previously ignored for lower voltage ratings have now to be taken into account. This is the case of…

Study of partial discharge (PD) behavior in electrical apparatus is important to know the degradation of insulating materials. The characterization of these pulses in the form of cavity discharge, corona discharge and surface discharge is important to identify the faulty location and to quantify the degree of deterior…

A PECVD deposited carbon hardmask is combined with dielectric anti-reflective coating (DARC) for the patterning of sub-90nm lines with 248nm lithography. Using this CVD dual layer stack, <1% reflectivity control is demonstrated for both 248nm and 193nm lithography. The film stack is tested with an etch integration sch…

Sensors operating in the ultra-high frequency (UHF) band have been used to detect internal discharges during site testing of a 1000 MVA oil-filled transformer. The transformer was operated at voltages exceeding normal levels by up to 15%. Two discharge sources were detected at both sensors using UHF test equipment. Di…

An all electrochemical deposition process was developed to prepare the polypyrrole nanocomposite films containing multiple layers of CdSe and CdTe. The CdSe layer grew on top of polypyrrole in a Volmer−Weber mode leading to an increase in surface roughness, while the subsequent CdTe layer filled up the interisland spa…
