The creation of low resistivity, ultrashallow source/drain regions in MOS device structures requires rapid thermal processing (RTP) techniques that restrict diffusion and activate a significant percentage of the implanted dopant species. While current heating techniques depend upon illumination based heating, a new technology, electromagnetic induction heating (EMIH), achieves a rapid heating o...

Induction heating is a famous technology and very filter, and a resonant inverter(8). V) this voltage enough to control of the IGBT circuit. 4IGBT. It is compared with the existing inverter topologies, half bridge and full bridge. The ordinary circuit of an AC-AC converter for induction heating typically includes a control rectifier By adjusting thewidth of the pulse that turns ON the IGBT. Abs...

A set of 2D steady state finite element numerical simulations of electromagnetic fields, eddy currents distribution and induction heating pattern has been done for different thicknesses of ametal workpiece. Comparison between the calculation results show the importance of workpiece thickness on induction heating process including electromagnetic field distribution, eddy currents pattern, heatin...

OBJECTIVES Infection of implants is a major problem in elective and trauma surgery. Heating is an effective way to reduce the bacterial load in food preparation, and studies on hyperthermia treatment for cancer have shown that it is possible to heat metal objects with pulsed electromagnetic fields selectively (PEMF), also known as induction heating. We therefore set out to answer the following ...

Inducing cell death by heating targeted particles shows promise in cancer treatment. Here, we aim to demonstrate the feasibility of extending the use of this technique to treat and remove vascular deposits and thrombosis. We used induction heating of macrophages, which are key contributors to atherosclerosis and have demonstrated clear feasibility for heating and destroying these cells using fe...
