The reliability of interconnects continues to be a formidable challenge as dimensions shrink from generation to generation. In this paper we demonstrate barrier/seed scaling, enabled by HCMregIONX PVD technology. We report high electromigration activation energy of ~ 1 eV, and Jmax> 6 MA/cm2, exceeding the ITRS 2007 r…

A 67-year-old woman with metastatic colorectal cancer was given her first oxaliplatin infusion as part of the XELOX protocol. She developed chest pain with ECG changes leading subsequently to a diagnosis of coronary artery spasm. To our knowledge, this is the first report of oxaliplatin-induced coronary artery spasm.

Synthesis and characterization of SiO2 doped bismuth titanate ceramics were investigated. Four investigated compositions belonging to the system Bi2O3-TiO2-SiO2 are located in the section Bi4Ti3O12-SiO2, near by it and in the binary Bi2O3-TiO2 system. Melt quenching was applied for synthesis of SiO2 doped bismuth tita…

Several of the typical RF absorbing materials utilized in particle accelerator environments have DC electrical conductivities that decrease significantly when cooled to cryogenic temperatures. If such RF absorbers are in close proximity to a beamline, they are prone to collecting static charge and may deflect the part…
