• Lambert-W function-based MOSFET parameter extraction down to cryogenic temperature. modeling of drain current characteristics using classical mobility law 4.2 K. Main FDSOI parameters extracted versus temperature and gate length. Mobility degradation at short channel length due increased neutral defect scattering. The applicability the methodology is demonstrated for 28 nm MOSFETs deep temper...

This review examines the fundamentals and challenges in engineering/understanding the thermostability of biological systems over a wide temperature range (from the cryogenic to hyperthermic regimen). Applications of the bio-thermostability engineering to either destroy unwanted or stabilize useful biologicals for the treatment of diseases in modern medicine are first introduced. Studies on the ...

An experimental evaluation of the structural health monitoring capability of piezoelectric wafer active sensors on composite structures at cryogenic temperatures is presented. The piezoelectric wafer active sensor–based electromechanical impedance and the pitch–catch methods were first qualified for cryogenic temperatures using piezoelectric wafer active sensor–instrumented composite specimens ...

The superconducting Tevatron accelerator at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab) has surpassed twenty years of operation. The Tevatron is still the highest energy particle accelerator in the world and will remain so until the commissioning of the LHC in Europe later this decade. The Tevatron has operated in a Fixed Target mode, accelerating a proton beam into stationary targets/dete...

The paper deals with the change in carbide grain size of sintered WC-Co after cryogenic pro-cessing. Because this structural parameter has a significant effect on mechanical properties. Some sources indicate that due to processing takes place reduce grains and other increase grains. Measurement can be performed using several methods. In paper, comparative method according ASTM B 390 standard wa...

Preliminary note The industry is under increasing pressure of the financial crisis, global competition, stricter environmental legislation and supply-chain demand. To tackle these issues, a sustainable development trend has to be assured synergetically on all the levels/fields, including machining processes. This paper promotes sustainable production via an improvement of machining technologies...

Charging mechanism of dust particles in a nonuniform discharge plasma under cryogenic environment is studied theoretically. The plasma density and temperature effects on dust grain charging are investigated with characteristic time scales of density variation and temperature relaxation in consideration. The charge of a dust grain, initially placed in a discharge plasma and cooled to cryogenic t...
