Low-κ dielectricIn semiconductor manufacturing, a low-κ is a material with a small relative dielectric constant (κ, kappa) relative to silicon dioxide. Low-κ dielectric material implementation is one of several strategies used to allow continued scaling of microelectronic devices, colloquially referred to as extending Moore's law. In digital circuits, insulating dielectrics separate the conducting parts (wire interconnects and transistors) from one another.
Fonction de répartitionEn théorie des probabilités, la fonction de répartition, ou fonction de distribution cumulative, d'une variable aléatoire réelle X est la fonction F_X qui, à tout réel x, associe la probabilité d’obtenir une valeur inférieure ou égale : Cette fonction est caractéristique de la loi de probabilité de la variable aléatoire.
Dielectric gasA dielectric gas, or insulating gas, is a dielectric material in gaseous state. Its main purpose is to prevent or rapidly quench electric discharges. Dielectric gases are used as electrical insulators in high voltage applications, e.g. transformers, circuit breakers (namely sulfur hexafluoride circuit breakers), switchgear (namely high voltage switchgear), radar waveguides, etc.
