Leakage Current Based Thermal Modeling of Glass Disc Insulator Surface
The stability of transmission lines relies on the health of the insulators, such as glass string insulators, which may occasionally flashover during an overvoltage. The likelihood of flashover increases notably when the glass insulator is wrapped by a wet contaminant layer. In this paper a study of the surface thermal profile of glass disc insulators insulation had been carried out for both cle...
متن کاملTransmission of surface plasmon polaritons through atomic-size constrictions
We study the excitation and propagation of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) on a micron-sized thin gold stripe. Grating couplers are embedded for both excitation of SPPs and detection after propagation. The experimental setup allows measuring of the decay length of the SPPs on the gold stripe excited in the near infrared part of the electromagnetic spectrum. We show that SPPs are transmitted w...
متن کاملMinimization of Leakage Current in VLSI Design
To meet the ever-increasing demand of high performance systems, more and more functions are integrated into single chip by scaling down the size of device. Leakage current is becoming an increasingly important fraction of total power dissipation of integrated circuits. As technology scales leakage current grows exponentially and become and increasingly large component of total power dissipation...
متن کاملLeakage Current Reduction in VLSI Systems
There is a growing need to analyze and optimize the stand-by component of power in digital circuits designed for portable and battery-powered applications. Since these circuits remain in stand-by (or sleep) mode significantly longer than in active mode, their stand-by current, and not their active switching current, determines their battery life. Hence, stringent specifications are being placed...
متن کاملLeakage Current in Sub-Micrometer CMOS Gates
Static power consumption is nowadays a crucial design parameter in digital circuits due to emergent mobile products. Leakage currents, the main responsible for static power dissipation during idle mode, are increasing dramatically in sub-100nm processes. Subthershold leakage rises due to threshold voltage scaling while gate leakage current increases due to scaling of oxide thickness. It means t...
