Total dose response of transconductance in MOSFETs at low temperature

Low-temperature electron-phonon interaction in Si MOSFETs

We investigate electron-phonon coupling in a silicon metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor by measuring heat flow. Earlier studies of the electron-phonon interaction through similar measurements were complicated by electron diffusion, a competing cooling mechanism. We reduce the diffusion by using an unusually long sample, and account for the remainder by comparing results from two ...

Hot-carrier reliability of MOSFETs at room and cryogenic temperature

Toxin Response LOW Intermediate High At Least One Dose Dose Dose Dose Placebo

Twenty patients with torticollis had electromyographic studies of their neck muscles performed before and after a series of local injections of botulinum toxin. The pattern of muscle activity changed after the injections, and this effect persisted even after head position had returned to baseline. Patients who did not experience any clinical benefit from the injections also demonstrated a chang...

Low-energy multipole response in nuclei at finite temperature

The multipole response of nuclei at temperatures T = 0 − 2 MeV is studied using a self-consistent finite-temperature RPA (random phase approximation) based on relativistic energy density functionals. Illustrative calculations are performed for the isoscalar monopole and isovector dipole modes and, in particular, the evolution of low-energy excitations with temperature is analyzed, including the...

Design of Linear CMOS Transconductance Elements for Alpha-Power Law Based Mosfets and an Automatic Compensation Technique for Temperature

A model on alpha-power law MOSFETs based source-coupled differential pair (SCDP) is discussed and a simple design procedure for realizing a linear CMOS SCDP transconductance element is proposed. The proposed or modified SCDP circuit using this procedure is an alternative to that of conventional SCDP and the circuit discussed has superior linearity for a wide range ±(0-300mv) of input differenti...
