Electrical Breakdown of Nanowires

Nano Letters, 2011
Instantaneous electrical breakdown measurements of GaN and Ag nanowires are performed by an in situ transmission electron microscopy method. Our results directly reveal the mechanism that typical thermally heated semiconductor nanowires break at the midpoint, while metallic nanowires breakdown near the two ends due to the stress induced by ...

Biased percolation and electrical breakdown

Semiconductor Science and Technology, 1997
To analyse the degradation of a thin-film conductor we have extended the biased percolation model to the case of electrical breakdown associated with a systematic decrease of the resistance. As relevant indicators of the degradation process we have chosen the damage pattern, the current and temperature distributions, the change of resistance, the ...

Electrical Breakdown in Water Vapor

Physical Review E, 2011
In this paper investigations of the voltage required to break down water vapor are reported for the region around the Paschen minimum and to the left of it. In spite of numerous applications of discharges in biomedicine, and recent studies of discharges in water and vapor bubbles and discharges with liquid water electrodes, studies of the basic ...

Electrical breakdown in gases

Digest of Literature on Dielectrics, Volume 41, 1977, 1977
The subject of electrical discharges in gases is a very general one which encompasses many other fields, such as plasma chemistry and laser processes, while it, in turn, makes use of results obtained in such allied areas as the physics of collisions. This lack of clearly defined boundaries creates inevitable difficulty for someone attempting to compile

Electrical Breakdown in CSF8

Journal of Applied Physics, 1950
The breakdown potential of a new gas, CSF8, has been measured over the range from pδ=4 to 200 mm×cm under conditions approximating plane-parallel geometry. A comparison of breakdown in air Freon-12 and CSF8 in the same apparatus indicates the ratio of the strengths of these gases to be approximately 1:2:3, respectively.

Electrical Breakdown of Gases

Physics Bulletin, 1979
J M Meek and J D Craggs (eds) 1978 Chichester: John Wiley x + 878 pp price £35 The well known compendious postgraduate text of 1953 has suffered a complete metamorphosis except for the title. Surprisingly, the former authors, now wearing editors' hats, invited nine contributors to compose 11 new chapters.
