Abstract Loss of implicit linguistic competence assumes a loss of linguistic rules, necessary linguistic computations, or representations. In aphasia, the inherent neurological damage is frequently assumed by some to be a loss of implicit linguistic competence that has damaged or wiped out neural centers or pathways that are necessary for maintenance of the language rules and representations needed to communicate. Not everyone agrees with this view of language use in aphasia. The measurement of implicit language competence, although apparently necessary and satisfying for theoretic linguistics, is complexly interwoven with performance factors. Transience, stimulability, and variability in aphasia language use provide evidence for an access deficit model that supports performance loss. Advances in understanding linguistic competence and performance may be informed by careful study of bilingual language acquisition and loss, the language of savants, the language of feral children, and advances in neuroimaging. Social models of aphasia treatment, coupled with an access deficit view of aphasia, can salve our restless minds and allow pursuit of maximum interactive communication goals even without a comfortable explanation of implicit linguistic competence in aphasia.

AbstractMany attempts have been made to reduce degradation properties of Lead Zirconate Titanate (PZT) thin film capacitors. Although each degradation property has been studied extensively for the sake of material improvement, it is desired that they be understood in a unified manner in order to reduce degradation properties simultaneously. This can be achieved if a common source(s) of degradations is identified and controlled. In the past it was noticed that oxygen vacancies play a key role in fatigue, leakage current, and electrical degradation/breakdown of PZT films. It is now known that space charges (oxygen vacancies, mainly) affect ageing, too. Therefore, a quantitative ageing mechanism is proposed based on oxygen vacancy migration under internal field generated by either remanent polarization or spontaneous polarization. Fatigue, leakage current, electrical degradation, and polarization reversal mechanisms are correlated with the ageing mechanism in order to establish guidelines for simultaneous degradation control of PZT thin film capacitors. In addition, the current pitfalls in the ferroelectric test circuit is discussed, which may cause false retention, imprint, and ageing.
