This paper presents a new stray capacitance compensation method for non stray immune capacitance measurement circuits. The proposed stray capacitance compensation method allows ECT systems to use all known capacitance measurement methods. Based on this method compact size ECT hardware can be built and can work powered by battery because of small power consumption. The investigation and experime...

A linear capacitor structure using fractal geometries is described. This capacitor exploits both lateral and vertical electric fields to increase the capacitance per unit area. Compared to standard parallel-plate capacitors, the parasitic bottomplate capacitance is reduced. Unlike conventional metal-to-metal capacitors, the capacitance density increases with technology scaling. A classic fracta...

The floating gate technique (FGT) is a very sensitive method to measure very low level leakage currents in MOS capacitors. This indirect technique requires the precise knowledge of the capacitance of the structure under test. We have studied the impact of the capacitance model (classic or quantum) and of polysilicon gate depletion effect. We have shown that for 7.2 nm thin EEPROM tunnel oxides,...

an improved model of mud dispersion has been introduced in this work. the advantages of this model consist of a new analytical correlation for dispersivity by using resistivity log data and using a new aspect of capacitance dispersion model. mathematical formulations were expressed, solved by numerical model taking advantage of actual log and formation data. achieved results yielded reasonable ...

We fabricated formamidinium lead iodide perovskite solar cell for analysis of the photovoltaic mechanism based on the interpretation of the capacitance variation under illumination. It was shown that the low-frequency capacitance increases proportional to incident light intensity, and in addition it increases proportional to absorber thickness. Furthermore, the voltage dependence of capacitance...

A circuit for capacitance measurements is described. The circuit permits offset capacitance compensation using a dc voltage. The electronic circuitry with its testing is described. The output voltage is a linear function of the capacitance measured. Experimental data show good agreement with values predicted by the linear formula. Experiments show it is possible to measure capacitance changes w...

The e!ect of interconnect coupling capacitance on the transient characteristics of a CMOS logic gate strongly depends upon the signal activity. A transient analysis of CMOS logic gates driving two and three coupled resistive}capacitive interconnect lines is presented in this paper for di!erent signal combinations. Analytical expressions characterizing the output voltage and the propagation dela...

The capacitance matrix relates potentials and charges on a system of conductors. We review rigorously generalize its properties, block-diagonal structure inequalities, deduced from the geometry conductors analytic properties permittivity tensor. Furthermore, we discuss alternative choices regularization matrix, which allow us to find charge exchanged between having been brought an equal potenti...
