In this paper, we report the development of a high breakdown voltage InGaP/GaAs HBT process for low-to-mid power and high-voltage power amplifier operation. To achieve the high-breakdown InGaP HBT, two different collector designs and collector-etch processes were investigated. The first device process approach uses a thick GaAs collector with low n doping. The process challenges and considerati...

A four stage asymmetric type depressed collector has been designed for the Israeli mm-wave FEM that is driven by a 1.4MeV, 1.5A electron beam. After leaving the interaction section the spent beam has an energy spread of 120 keV and 75pmmmrad normalized beam emittance. Simulations of the beam transport system from the undulator exit through the decelerator tube into the collector have been carri...

PURPOSE To determine the composition and investigate the elastin fiber system in the juxtacanalicular tissue adjacent to and between collector channel orifices in normal human eyes. METHODS Normal human eyes (71.0 ± 8.6 years; mean ± SD; n = 4) were perfusion fixed at low (10 mm Hg) and high pressure (20 mm Hg) with 3% paraformaldehyde/0.1 M phosphate buffer. Frontal serial sections were cut ...

Garbage Collection (GC) is a process of automatic memory reclamation from the objects that are no longer required by the mutator. The execution time of the application and memory reclaimed by garbage collector are important factors that influence the selection of a specific garbage collector while selecting a specific one. The current research paper selects a suitable garbage collector on the b...

In this study, the possibility of producing coal with less than 11% ash from tailings of flotation process was investigated. The effect of six flotation parameters: collector type, collector consumption, frother type, frother consumption, pulp density and mixing rate were studied on a sample from a tailing dam. A software based experimental design approach (DX7) was applied to determine and mod...

Reference counting is a classical garbage collection method. Recently, a series of papers have extended the basic method to drastically reduce its notorious overhead and extend the basic method to run concurrently and efficiently on a modern computing platform. In this paper we investigate the use of prefetching to further improve the efficiency of the reference-counting collector. We propose p...

An evacuated tube solar collector using therminol D-12 as heat transfer fluid coupled with parabolic trough is studied in this paper. An experimental set-up was constructed to study the performance of evacuated tube collector with therminol D-12 as heat transfer fluid. The parabolic trough is coupled with evacuated tube collector for better performance. In the traditional solar collectors water...

We have demonstrated a heterojunction bipolar transistor using a novel compound collector (CCHBT) design that allows a low-knee voltage and high-breakdown voltage to be obtained simultaneously. The novel aspect of this design is to use a short wide band-gap collector only over a narrow portion of the collector, where the field is highest. This allows support of high fields while maintaining a l...

A copying collector has two excellent properties: it compacts the heap, and the execution time depends solely on the number of live objects. Use of a copying collector is thought by some to be a more efficient way of managing the heap than explicit freeing of objects. This paper describes a high-performance copying collector for a hybrid object-oriented language. The collector is both conservat...

Our research is concerned with compiler-independent, tag-free garbage collection for the C ++ programming language. This paper presents a mark-and-sweep collector , and explains how it ameliorates shortcomings of a previous copy collector. The new collector, like the old, uses C ++ 's facilities for creating abstract data types to deene a tracked reference type, called roots, at the level of th...
