Using low-resistance electrical contacts, we have measured the intrinsic high-field transport properties of metallic single-wall carbon nanotubes. Individual nanotubes appear to be able to carry currents with a density exceeding 10(9) A/cm(2). As the bias voltage is increased, the conductance drops dramatically due to scattering of electrons. We show that the current-voltage characteristics can...

We report the intrinsic and extrinsic electrical characteristics of advanced multilayer amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) thin-film transistor (TFT) with dual amorphous silicon nitride (a-SiNX:H) and a-Si:H layers. The thickness effect of the high electronic quality a-Si:H film on the transistor’s electrical property was investigated; with increasing film thickness, both field-effect mobility and subt...

background: this study is the first research investigating the possible effect of pulsed power signals on the characteristics of cortical bone by comparing the mechanical properties of this type of bone pre and post expose to pulsed power. methods: a positive buck-boost converter was applied to generate adjustable high voltage, high frequency pulses (up to 500 v and 10 khz). the functional beha...

in this paper are present the results of measurements of magnetic induction at some locationsin city bor (the east serbia) dating from the household electric devices and transformer stations suited near the residental areas. stress is on the extremely low frequent electromagnetic radiation from transformer stations and other high voltage instalations in urban areas. risk of the extremely low fr...

Electrical characterization methods for the analysis of alternating current thinfilm electroluminescent (ACTFEL) devices are reviewed. Particular emphasis is devoted to electrical characterization techniques because ACTFEL devices are electro-optic display devices whose performance is to a large extent determined by their electrical properties. A systematic procedure for ACTFEL electrical asses...

Electrical discharge machining process, is one of the most widely used methods for machining, the electrically conductive parts. In this way the tool is not in contact with the workpiece and the hardness of workpiece does not affect the machining speed. In Electrical Discharge Machining process, selection of the correct machining parameters are effective in final cost and the quality of the pro...

in this research the influence of adding sic on microstructure and electrical properties of zno-based nanocomposite varistors were investigated. sic was added with amounts of 10-0 mass% to zno-based varistor composition. it is found that sic allows reaching to high threshold voltage with formation of fine-grained zno.another important effect of adding sic is formation zn2sio4 (willemite) on the ...

When a carbon nanotube emitter is operated at high currents (typically above 1 microA per emitter), a small voltage drop ( approximately few volts) along its length or at its contact generates a reverse/canceling electric field that causes a saturation-like deviation from the classical Fowler-Nordheim behavior with respect to the applied electric field. We present a correction to the Fowler-Nor...

At NMIJ/AIST, there are two divisions in the electrical standards area. One is the Electricity and Magnetism (EM) Division and the other is the Electromagnetic Waves Division. The former covers low frequency electrical standards and the latter high frequency and electromagnetic field standards. The EM division has two sections, the Applied Electrical Standards Section and the Quantum Electrical...
