Very Deep Sub-Micron (VDSM) defects are resolved as Statistical Post-ProcessingTM (SPP) outliers of a new IDDQ screen. The screen applies an IDDQ pattern once to the Device Under Test (DUT) and takes two quiescent current measurements. The quiescent current measurements are taken at nominal and at subthreshold supply voltages. The screen is demonstrated with 0.18μm and 0.13μm volume data. The s...

plasma electrolytic oxidation (peo) is the new, environmentally and cost-effective method for coating the metals. this method vastly has been studied for coating aluminum, titanium and magnesium and their alloys and recently for steel. in present study, ck45 steel samples were coated by peo method in order to improve corrosion resistance. during this process specimens were immerged in carbonate...

The current practice for experimentally evaluating the performance of extraterrestrial rovers/rover wheels is to conduct tests on earth on a soil simulant, appropriate to the regolith on the extraterrestrial body of interest. In the tests, the normal load (force) applied by the rover/rover wheel to the soil simulant is set identical to that expected on the extraterrestrial surface, taking into ...

Abstract The fundamental vacuum state of quantum fields, related to Minkowski space, produces divergent fluctuations that must be suppressed in order bring reality the description physical systems. As a consequence, negative expectation values classically positive-defined quantities can appear. This has been addressed literature as subvacuum phenomenon. Here it is investigated how scalar charge...
