PZT thin films for memory applications are known to lack sufficient resistance versus polarization fatigue when used together with platinum. One possible solution for this problem is to use conductive oxides like La1-xSrxCoO3 (LSCO) as an electrode. In thi ...
This paper presents key technologies and system integration issues of the KAIST interactive bicycle simulator. The rider on the bicycle feels the motion and has the visual experience as if he/she is riding in the campus of the Korea Advanced Institute of S ...
A process for producing at least one epitaxial, nanostructured thin film of metal oxide and/or a hydrated metal oxide on at least one substrate placed in a container and a substrate/thin film thereof, comprises placing the substrate at any location in the ...
Adsorption to a chelating resin (Chelamine Std.) is a method for recovering heavy metals from wastewater contg. very light quantities of heavy metals (
Microcrystalline hydrogenated silicon films (muc-Si:H) have been deposited by a high current DC plasma in argon-silane-hydrogen mixtures at growth rates up to 10 nm/s and at substrate temperatures below 500 degreesC. Scanning electron microscopy, X-ray dif ...
The longitudinal d(33) piezoelectric coefficient was studied in rhombohedral Pb(Zr0.6Ti0.4)O-3 thin films with (111), (100), and "random" orientation. The largest d(33) was found in (100)-oriented films and the smallest along the polarization direction in ...
The aim of this work was to investigate the degradation of the anti-adhesive properties of protective PTFE films during the hot embossing of thermoplasts, and to identify possible failure causes which reduce the lifetime of these films. A comparative XPS s ...
Dielectric breakdown of (Pb,La)(Zr,Ti)O-3(PLZT) film capacitors with Pt and SrRuO3 electrodes, in its initial or virgin state and after voltage cycling that causes polarization fatigue, is studied by constant-current measurements. It is shown that for diff ...
Selective dissolution of titanium through a laser patterned oxide film has been achieved in a 3M sulfuric acid-methanol electrolyte. The 250 nm thick oxide film was formed anodically on a flat titanium surface in 0.5 M sulfuric acid. The patterning of the ...
A review. Recent work on the charge transport in mesoscopic nanostructured film electrodes is summarized. Results from intensity-modulated photocurrent spectroscopy (IMPS) and intensity-modulated photovoltage spectroscopy (IMVS) studies are given, and the ...
