SILC-related effects in flash E/sup 2/PROM's-Part I: A quantitative model for steady-state SILC

IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices, 1998
In this paper a quantitative model for the steady-state component of the stress induced leakage current (SILC) is developed. The established model is based on the observation of basic degradation monitors on conventional, thermal SiO/sub 2/ gate dielectrics in the thickness range of 6.8-7.1 nm.

SILC: Significantly Inferior Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy?

Journal of the American College of Surgeons, 2013
be less successful than working one-on-one with individual surgeons to define their goals, priorities, and ultimately, their core values, in order to create a work situation in which these are best developed and used for the benefit of both the individual and the department. I do, however, take issue with the statement, “The most repeated phrase from a

The SILC study by PDO method

Solid-State Electronics, 2004
Stress induced leakage current (SILC) has been discussed for a long time by many researchers. The oxide traps are believed to be the cause of SILC, but characterization of these traps is still not clear. In this paper, we demonstrate that the SILC related oxide traps can be distinguished into two kinds with different characterization parameter by PDO ...

Single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy (SILC): a refined technique

The American Journal of Surgery, 2010
Reports of decreasing the number of incisions in laparoscopic procedures began appearing in the 1990s. A recent spark in pursuing such an approach has been accelerated by natural-orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery.Several modifications in performing single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy (SILC) were introduced until it was possible to ...

A statistical model for SILC in flash memories

IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices, 2002
The reliability of flash memories is strongly. limited by the stress-induced leakage current (SILC), which leads to accelerated charge-loss phenomena in a few anomalous cells. Estimating the reliability of large flash arrays requires that physically-based models for the statistical distribution of SILC are developed.

Statistical profiling of SILC spot in flash memories

IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices, 2002
A new experimental technique for evaluating the position of the oxide weak spot responsible for the stress-induced leakage current (SILC) in flash memories is presented. The oxide field along the channel is modified by drain biasing, and the gate current is then monitored.

Couples' acceptability of the SILCS diaphragm for microbicide delivery

Contraception, 2012
Disposable plastic applicators used in microbicide gel studies are expensive and have a negative environmental impact. The SILCS diaphragm is a barrier contraceptive that could offer a reusable delivery system.Thirty-six couples in this randomized, cross-over study evaluated single- and double-sided gel delivery from a SILCS diaphragm compared with gel

Single-Incision Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy (SILC) Using Harmonic Scalpel

Journal of Surgical Research, 2012
Single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy (SILC) is emerging as a potentially less invasive alternative to standard laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). However, this procedure is technically more complex and time consuming. We present our initial experience with SILC using harmonic ACE (HS-SILC) in an attempt to simplify the procedure.We collected ...

Patterns of persistent poverty: Evidence from EU-SILC [PDF]

, 2011
The persistent at-risk-of-poverty rate is one of the EU's 11 primary indicators of social inclusion but it has received little attention compared to the current at-risk-of-poverty rate. Using the 2008 EU Statistics on Income and Living Conditions (EU-SILC) database, we compare persistent income poverty rates across European nations and examine ...

EEPROM Compact Model with SILC Simulation Capability

2006 7th Annual Non-Volatile Memory Technology Symposium, 2006
The objective of this paper is to present a EEPROM compact model suitable for SILC simulation. The SILC module allows simulating the retention capability of the cell after stress. Test chip array distribution and standard tunnel capacitor are used to extract the SILC module parameters. Thus the extraction procedure is detailed.
