By means of thin film technology a reduction of size, cost, and power consumption of electronic circuits can be achieved. The required specifications are attained by proper design and combinations of innovative materials and manufacturing technologies. This thesis focuses on the development and fabrication of low-loss ceramic thin film devices for radio and microwave frequency applications. The...

In a recent paper [Phys. Rev. Lett. 97, 070401 (2006)] the transition rate of magnetic spin-flip of a neutral two-level atom trapped in the vicinity of a thick superconducting body was studied. In the present paper we will extend these considerations to a situation with an atom at various distances from a dielectric film. Rates for the corresponding electric dipole-flip transition will also be ...

In this paper, we propose strain-sensitive thin films based on chemically reduced graphene oxide (GO) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) without adding any further surfactants. In spite of the insulating properties of the thin-film-based GO due to the presence functional groups such as hydroxyl, epoxy, and carbonyl groups in its atomic structure, a significant enhancement of the film co...

Layered V2O5 hydrate has been applied as the hole transport layer (HTL) in organic solar cells (OSCs). V2O5 is obtained from a sodiummetavanadate solution in water under ambient conditions, resulting in a final thin film of formula V2O5$0.5H2O. The 0.5 water molecules are not removed from the V2O5 layered structure unless the sample is heated above 250 C, which makes the thin film highly stable...

Article history: Received 26 June 2016 Accepted 6 July 2016 Available online xxxx Degradation mechanism of foldable thin film transistors (TFTs) is investigated experimentally by electrical, mechanical and electrical–mechanical hybrid stress experiments. Mechanical and electrical stress environment was set for foldable TFTs and the degradation effect according to the applied stress is investiga...

If a tangle, K ⊂ B, has no planar, meridional, essential surfaces in its exterior then thin position for K has no thin levels.

−75− Synthesiology English edition Vol.6 No.2 pp.75-83 (Sep. 2013) Then, in 1993, “single-wall CNTs” were discovered. In CNT research, the theoretical calculations were done actively due to their relatively simple molecular structure. From the calculations, it was predicted that, despite being a substance consisting solely of carbon atoms, CNTs would have extremely excellent properties such as ...

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION The AD688 is a high precision ±10 V tracking reference. Low tracking error, low initial error and low temperature drift give the AD688 reference absolute ±10 V accuracy performance previously unavailable in monolithic form. The AD688 uses a proprietary ion-implanted buried Zener diode, and laser-waferdrift-trimming of high stability thin-film resistors to provide outstanding...

A desired reflectance profile versus frequency (wavenumber) can be directly Fourier transformed into the index of refraction profile as a function of thickness which would produce the desired spectral reflectance profile. This tool has existed for some years now but does not seem to be in common use. This paper lays out some of the principles to aid in making the process more understandable, in...
