The worst ease bias during total dose irradiation of partially depleted SOI transistors from two technologies is correlated to the device architecture. Experiments and simulations are used to analyze SOI back transistor threshold voltage shift and charge trapping in the buried oxide

The geometric and electronic structure of a buried monolayer of boron nitride ~BN! has been probed using resonant soft x-ray fluorescence ~SXF!. By using the strong p* resonance feature in the resonant fluorescence spectrum near the B (1s) threshold, we were able to detect the BN thin film and examine changes in its electronic structure when the monolayer is placed between different materials. ...

In this paper, a near-triangular buried-oxide partial silicon-on-insulator (TB-PSOI) lateral double-diffused MOS field-effect transistor is proposed. The electric field and electrostatic potential in this structure are modified by the gradual buried-oxide thickness increase. The modification includes the addition of a new peak in the electric field in comparison to that of the conventional PSOI...

Abstract The shovelnose sturgeon ( Scaphirhynchus platorynchus ) and endangered pallid S. albus deposit demersal adhesive eggs in swift currents, near or over coarse substrate. Hydrographic surveys have demonstrated the dynamic nature of spawning habitats that substrates may episodically be buried (partially completely) by fine sediments. To evaluate embryo survival both species various substra...

Buried and stacked planar as well as buried single and parallel channel waveguides are fabricated in sapphire by proton implantation. Good control of the implantation parameters provides excellent confinement of the guided light in each structure. Low propagation losses are obtained in fundamental-mode, buried channel waveguides without postimplantation annealing. Choice of the implantation par...

We describe the structure of “substantially dissipative” complex Hénon maps admitting a dominated splitting on Julia set. prove that Fatou set consists only finitely many components, each either attracting or parabolic periodic. In particular, there are no wandering components and rotation domains. Moreover, we show $J = J^\\star$ dynamics $J$ is hyperbolic away from cycles.

A prediction algorithm based on physical characteristics of the twenty amino acids and refined by comparison to the proposed bacteriorhodopsin structure was devised to delineate likely membrane-buried regions in the primary sequences of proteins known to interact with the lipid bilayer. Application of the method to the sequence of the carboxyl terminal one-third of bovine rhodopsin predicted a ...

L-N(omega),N(omega)-dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase-1 (DDAH-1) is a Zn(II)-containing enzyme that, through hydrolysis of side-chain methylated l-arginines, regulates the activity of nitric-oxide synthase. Herein we report the structural and functional properties of the Zn(II)-binding site in DDAH-1 from bovine brain. Activity measurements of the native and metal-free enzyme have reveale...
