Influence of Halo Implantations on the Total Ionizing Dose Response of 28-nm pMOSFETs Irradiated to Ultrahigh Doses

In this paper, the total ionizing dose (TID) response of a commercial 28-nm high-k CMOS technology at ultrahigh doses is measured and discussed. The degradation of pMOSFETs depends not only on the channel width but also on the channel length. Short-channel ...

Energetics of Radiatively Heated Ice-Covered Lakes

Damien Bouffard, Hugo Nicolás Ulloa Sánchez, Kraig Bates Winters

We derive the mechanical energy budget for shallow, ice-covered lakes energized by penetrative solar radiation. Radiation increases the available and background components of the potential energy at different rates. Available potential energy drives under- ...

Local radiation maxima in snow-covered mountains and its influence on PV winter production

Michael Lehning, Jérôme François Sylvain Dujardin, Annelen Kahl, Felix Andreas Von Rütte

Mountains receive increased solar radiation because of a thinner atmosphere, the presence of snow on the ground and – in many regions such as the Alps – decreased winter cloudiness. In complex terrain, multiple terrain scattering further leads to radiation ...

Radon Investigation in 650 Energy Efficient Dwellings in Western Switzerland: Impact of Energy Renovation and Building Characteristics

Dusan Licina, Shen Yang

As part of more stringent energy targets in Switzerland, we witness the appearance of new green-certified dwellings while many existing dwellings have undergone energy efficiency measures. These measures have led to reduced energy consumption, but rarely c ...

Effective conductivity of porous ceramics in a radiative environment

Sophia Haussener, Clemens Gregor Suter, Jérémy Raphaël Mora-Monteros

The knowledge of the effective thermal conductivity, taking into account conduction and radiation, is crucial for the accurate prediction of the thermal behavior of porous foams, especially in an environment where radiation is dominating. We present a comb ...

Resonant inelastic X-ray scattering of magnetic excitations under pressure

Matteo Rossi

Resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) is an extremely valuable tool for the study of elementary, including magnetic, excitations in matter. The latest developments of this technique have mostly been aimed at improving the energy resolution and perform ...

Development of the scintillating fibre tracker technology for the LHCb upgrade and the LHC beam profile monitoring system

Olivier Göran Girard

The LHCb detector located at the large hadron collider (LHC) at CERN will undergo a major upgrade in 2019-2020. The detector will be prepared to operate at an increased instantaneous luminosity and to read out full events at 40MHz. This requires many chang ...

A stochastic approach to the modelling of gas transport in bentonite

Lyesse Laloui, Aldo Madaschi

In the past years, transport of gases in clay buffer materials for Engineered Barrier Systems (EBS) has been deeply investigated by many research programs in the field of nuclear waste disposal. The phenomenological features of gas transport obtained from ...
