A simple field analysis was developed for helical slowwave structure symmetrically supported by rectangular shaped discrete dielectric support rods partially embedded in the metal segments projecting radially inward from a metal envelope for wideband traveling-wave tubes. The tape helix model was used for the prediction of the dispersion relation and the interaction impedance characteristics. T...

By modeling a dielectric medium with two independent reservoirs, i.e., electric and magnetic reservoirs, the electromagnetic field is quantized in a linear dielectric medium consistently. A Hamiltonian is proposed from which using the Heisenberg equations, not only the Maxwell equations but also the structural equations can be obtained. Using the Laplace transformation, the wave equation for th...

It is known that conventional metal-oxide-silicon ~MOS! devices will have gate tunneling related problems at very thin oxide thicknesses. Various high-dielectric-constant materials are being examined to suppress the gate currents. In this article we present theoretical results of a charge control and gate tunneling model for a ferroelectric-oxide-silicon field effect transistor and compare them...

this paper describes a simple, physically-based conceptual model utilizing watershed drainage characteristics for rainfall-runoff simulation. this conceptual physiographic model is essentially based on the work of najafi (2003), which has led to a model compris-ing the main tributary subwatersheds and a single main channel subwatershed. the ki-nematic wave (kw) theory is used to describe flow o...

The paper emphasizes the propagation behavior of dielectric optical waveguides with elliptical cross-section with the introduction of conducting helical windings at the core-clad interface. Helix pitch angle plays the determining role to control the wave propagation. For the sake of simplicity, two extreme values of pitch angle, namely, 0 and 90, are taken into account, and studies are made...

Larger width of P-cladding layer in p-i-n waveguide of traveling wave electroabsorption modulator (TWEAM) results in lower resistance and microwave propagation loss which provides an enhanced high speed electro-optical response. In this paper, a fullvectorial finite-difference-based optical mode solver is presented to analyze mushroom-type TWEAM for the first time. In this analysis, the discont...

Time-dependent dielectric breakdown (TDDB) characteristics of La2O3-doped high-k dielectric in Hf-based high-k/TaN metal gate stack were studied. Unlike the abrupt breakdown in the conventional SiO2, dielectric breakdown behaviors of La-incorporated HfON and HfSiON dielectrics show progressive breakdown characteristics. Moreover, the extracted Weibull slope β of breakdown distribution is in the...

A series of isovalently A-site substituted relaxor dielectric tetragonal tungsten bronzes of general formula Ba6−x−ySrxCayGaNb9O30 were investigated. The long-range (average) crystal structure as determined by conventional diffraction techniques varies monotonically according to Vegard’s law. The dielectric properties, however, do not display a similar, simple “average size” dependence and inst...
