The switching of the sandwich structure ''ferroelectric+thin dielectric layer'' is theoretically studied. The behavior of the remanent polarization, P-r, coercive field, E(c), maximal polarization on the loop, P-s, and the slope of the hysteresis loop at E ...
In highly excited semiconductor systems near the transition from direct to indirect band structure (cross-over) the energetic distance between different conduction band minima is a nonmonotonous function of the excitation intensity. A theoretical explanati ...
The manifestations of semiconductor depletion and depolarizing effects in switching and fatigue are studied and compared. It is shown that these effects play important but quite different roles in switching. The depletion effect strongly influences the val ...
The authors discuss the results of a research project that developed an architectural framework for integrating non-IBM network architectures with the reference model and node structures of IBM's System Network Architecture (SNA). The unique features of th ...
In this paper, a high quality single-phase rectifier with reduced ripple of the input current is proposed. the chosen solution has the main advantage of reducing cither the current ripple or the operating switching frequency, by a compensation effect of tw ...
Three-phase multilevel converters were proposed to feed high-power induction drives or highspeed drives for flywheels. This paper describes a new vector modulation method together with the vector control for a three-phase multilevel converter. The proposed ...
One of the activities of the ACTS project EXPERT is to perform trials demonstrating the use of advanced Resource Management and Routing (RM&R) algorithms in ATM networks. The RM&R model chosen for these trials is based on the Virtual Trunk (VT) concept. In ...
In recent years, the Internet has proven its ability to carry real-time data, including voice. Today, a small amount of voice traffic has already been diverted from the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) to the Internet. If it expands, this phenomeno ...
We report the experimental observation of optical bistable switching in a combined distributed-feedback/Fabry-Perot structure. The sample had a high switching contrast with almost zero reflectivity in the on-state. A turnoff time as short as 4 ns was measu ...
