Good ohmic contacts with low contact resistance, smooth surface morphology, and a well-defined edge profile are essential to ensure optimal device performances for the AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors [HEMTs]. A tantalum [Ta] metal layer and an SiNx thin film were used for the first time as an effective diffusion barrier and encapsulation layer in the standard Ti/Al/metal/Au ohmic m...

This article looks at the Soret and Dufour effects on the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) peristaltic flow of variable viscosity fluid in a symmetric channel. Analysis is presented in the presence of Ohmic heating. Results for the stream function, temperature and concentration are constructed. The variations of sundry parameters are analyzed.

Frequency shifts, radiative decay rates, the Ohmic loss contribution to the nonradiative decay rates, fluorescence yields, and photobleaching of a two-level atom radiating anywhere inside or outside a complex spherical nanoshell, i.e. a stratified sphere consisting of alternating silica and gold concentric spherical shells, are studied. The changes in the spectroscopic properties of an atom int...

This paper signifies a very basic design and simulation techniques of RF MEMS switches using the advanced design systems software tool (ADS).Micro electro mechanical systems are recent development technologies which has better characteristics performance and also operating at microwave range of frequencies. Fundamentally MEMS switches can be categorized into two types series switches (ohmic typ...

Electromagnetic metasurface, as a type of planar electromagnetic material consisting single-layer or multilayer subwavelength artificial micro-structure, can efficiently control the polarization, amplitude and phase wave on scale. However, confining waves to deep-subwavelength scale generally is at cost large loss, such radiation Ohmic loss. Interestingly, non-Hermitian physics provides us new ...

Ohmic heating offers an alternating to conventional heating because it simultaneously heats both phases by internal energy generated through electrical energy. In this process heating rate depends upon the electrical conductivity and field strength. By this method a product undergoes a minimum structural damage, retain its nutritional value. This technique gives excellent processed quality prod...

We investigated the electrical contact characteristics of indium tin oxide (ITO)/doped hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) junctions. For efficient collection of photo-generated carriers, photovoltaic and photodetector devices require good ohmic contacts with transparent electrodes. The amorphous-Si thin films were sputter deposited on ITO coated glass substrates. As-deposited p-type a-Si:H...

Abstract. A series of calculations and measurements have been made to evaluate the effect of eddy currents in the spherical tokamak ETE (Experimento Tokamak Esférico). Eddy currents occur in the central column of the conventional copper toroidal field magnet, around which the ohmic heating solenoid was tightly wound, and in the continuous wall of the vacuum vessel manufactured from inconel allo...

Central toroidal rotation and impurity transport coe cients have been determined in Alcator C-Mod Ohmic High Con nement Mode (H-mode) plasmas from observations of x-ray emission following impurity injection. Rotation velocities up to 3 10 m/s in the co-current direction have been observed in the center of the best Ohmic H-mode plasmas. Purely Ohmic H-mode plasmas display many characteristics si...

Three types of two-terminal CdS nanowire devices with distinct current versus voltage characteristics were fabricated by forming Schottky and/or Ohmic contacts in a controlled manner. Argon ion bombardment of CdS nanowires increased the carrier concentration allowing the formation of Ohmic Ti–CdS contacts. Scanning photocurrent microscopy SPCM was used to explore the influence of the contacts o...
