In this paper, we have designed a bistable microelectromechanical switch for an implantable lead electrode multiplexer application. Fabrication is based on a single mask process. State changes require an 18 V pulse to the actuators consuming only 0.2 nJ en ...
Power-electronic inverters are becoming popular for various industrial drives applications. In recent years also high-power and medium-voltage drive applications have been installed. However, the existing solutions suffer from some important drawbacks. Hyb ...
This paper addresses the problem of time-dependent dielectric breakdown of Pb(Zr,Ti)O-3 (PZT) thin films. It is shown by using constant-current breakdown measurements, that for PZT film capacitors with Pt and SrRuO3 (SRO) electrodes the breakdown onset is ...
This paper presents a novel method to predict the outdoor ground surface temperature, which can be useful in the estimation of urban heat islands (UHI) eect. A model is developed based on a multi-layer ground surface energy balance calculated on an hourly ...
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 ...
