The properties of chaotic advection arising from defect turbulence, that is, weak turbulence in the electroconvection of nematic liquid crystals, were experimentally investigated. Defect turbulence is a phenomenon in which fluctuations of convective rolls arise and are globally disturbed while maintaining convective rolls locally. The time-dependent diffusion coefficient, as measured from the motion of a tagged particle driven by the turbulence, was used to clarify the dependence of the type of diffusion on coarse-graining time. The results showed that, as coarse-graining time increases, the type of diffusion changes from superdiffusion → subdiffusion → normal diffusion. The change in diffusive properties over the observed timescale reflects the coexistence of local order and global disorder in the defect turbulence.

The reliability and ruggedness of Monolith/Littelfuse planar SiC MOSFETs have been evaluated using constant voltage time-dependent dielectric breakdown for gate oxide wearout predictions, showing estimated > 100 year life at VGS=+25V and T=175C. Using extended time high-temperature gate bias, we have shown < 250 mV threshold voltage shifts for > 5000 hours under VGS=+25V and negligible threshold voltage shifts for > 2500 hours under VGS=-10V, both at T=175C. Under unclamped inductive switching, these 1200V, 80 mOhm SiC MOSFETs survive 1000 mJ of avalanche energy, meeting state-of-art ruggedness for 1200V SiC MOSFETs.

ABSTRACTWe have realized direct-tunneling gate oxide (1.6nm) NMOS and PMOS transistors by means of through-the-gate-implantation in a comer parasitics-free shallow-trench-isolation CMOS technology. In order to take full advantage of in-situ cluster-tool processing and to preserve initial wafer-surface quality, the essential part of the MOS gate is fabricated prior to device isolation and through-the-gate-implantation is utilized for well- and channel doping. In addition, a fully-reinforced-gate-oxide-perimeter is provided and trench comer parasitics are eliminated by the advanced process architecture EXTIGATE without increasing process complexity.

AbstractVarious pre-gate oxide cleaning and gettering techniques on the integrity of thin gate oxide were investigated. A 100 Å thick oxide capacitor was used to study its time-dependent breakdown characteristics and minority carrier lifetime. It has been shown that the oxide integrity as measured by time-dependent breakdown and the minority carrier lifetime are very sensitive to the cleaning technique. On the other hand, given adequate cleaning process, different intrinsic gettering schemes may only influence the oxygen precipitation, as well as the minority carrier lifetime, but not the oxide integrity.
