Hot-carrier-induced deep-level defects from gated-diode measurements on MOSFETs [PDF]
The reverse-bias current in the gated-diode configuration of hot-carrier degraded MOS devices was measured. It is shown that interface defects created by the degradation contribute predominantly to the generation current.

Feasible protection strategy for HVDC system by means of SFCL and passive resonance DC breaker
The key obstacle in implementing high-voltage direct current (HVDC) grid, which is considered as the future of power grid, is the absence of effective DC circuit breaker (DCCB). At present, HVDC grid could be based on half-bridge (HB) or full-bridge (FB)

Dislocation-related leakage-current paths of 4H silicon carbide
Improving the quality of 4H silicon carbide (4H-SiC) epitaxial layers to reduce the leakage current of 4H-SiC based high-power devices is a long-standing issue in the development of 4H-SiC homoepitaxy.

Current reversals in a rocking ratchet: The frequency domain [PDF]
Motivated by recent work [D. Cubero et al., Phys. Rev. E 82, 041116 (2010)], we examine the mechanisms which determine current reversals in rocking ratchets as observed by varying the frequency of the drive. We found that a class of these current reversals in the frequency domain are precisely determined by dissipation-induced symmetry breaking.

Polarized forced inverter drainage with controlled reverse-current release [PDF]
To solve the problem of limiting the potential displacement of the protected structures to a very negative side, it was proposed to use a controlled release enabling passing the reverse current by direct connection of electric transport rail running on ...

Efficient Magnetization Reversal with Noisy Currents
We propose to accelerate reversal of the ferromagnetic order parameter in spin valves by electronic noise. By solving the stochastic equations of motion we show that the current-induced magnetization switching time is drastically reduced by a modest level of externally generated current (voltage) noise.

Fabrication and characterization of the charge-plasma diode [PDF]
We present a new lateral Schottky-based rectifier called the charge-plasma diode realized on ultrathin silicon-oninsulator. The device utilizes the workfunction difference between two metal contacts, palladium and erbium, and the silicon body.

A simple method for accurate modeling of diode parameters
Reverse saturation current of diodes is a very small value which cannot be measured with normal measurement devices. In this paper, a simple method to measure the reverse saturation current of diodes is proposed.
