In this paper, we present the analytical models for the change of the lateral electric field distribution and the velocity saturation region length with the electron trapping of stressed SC-PMOSFET in the saturation region. To derive the hot-electron-induced lateral electric field of stressed SC-PMOSFET. Ko's pseudo two dimensional box model in the saturation region which illustrates the analysis of the velocity saturation region is modified under the condition of electron trapping in the oxide near the drain region. From the results, we have the following lateral electric field in the y-direction, that is, E(y) ES1satT.cosh(y/l) qNS1tT.sinh(y/l)/lCox. It is shown that the trapped electrons influence the field in the drain region. decreasing the lateral electric field. Calculated velocity saturaion length increases with the trapped electrons. increasing the drain current of stressed SCPMOSFET. This results well explain the HEIP phenomenon of PMOSFET's.

This paper presents an improved characteristic analysis methodology for a 5-phase hybrid stepping motor. The basic approach is based on the use of equivalent magnetic circuit taking into account the localized saturation throughout the hybrid stepping motor. The finite element method(FEM) is used to generate the magnetic circuit parameters for the complex stator and rotor teeth and airgap considering the saturation effects in tooth and poles. In addition, the neural network is used to map a change of parameters and predicts their approximation. Therefore, the proposed method efficiently improves the accuracy of analysis by using the parameter characterizing localized saturation effects and reduces the computational time by using the neural network. An improved circuit model of 5-phase hybrid stepping motor is presented and its application is provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Purpose: This study compared the pain-relieving effects of human milk, sucrose, and distilled water during examinations for retinopathy of prematurity. Methods: Forty-five preterm infants were randomly assigned to receive a pacifier dipped in one of three solutions: human milk (n=14), 24% sucrose (n=15), or distilled water (n=16), 2 minutes before an eye examination. Their pain score, pulse rate, and oxygen saturation were measured at three time points: 5 minutes before the examination, 30 seconds after speculum introduction, and 2 minutes after the examination. Results: The infants' mean gestational age and weight at birth were $33.1{\pm}2.1$ weeks and $1,842{\pm}470g$, respectively. There were no between-group differences in pain relief during the eye examination. The pain score significantly increased both during (p<.001) and after the examinations (p=.003). Oxygen saturation decreased during the examinations (p<.001); however, the infants in the 24% sucrose group showed higher oxygen saturation (p=.047) during the examinations than the infants in the other groups. Conclusion: Sucking on a pacifier dipped in human milk or 24% sucrose did not reduce the pain associated with eye examinations in preterm infants. Pacifiers dipped in sucrose can be used to maintain better oxygen saturation during these examinations.

At low normal stress levels tensile strength of sand varies with either saturation or suction of soil in an up-and-down manner with a peak tensile strength that can occur at any degree of saturation. A theory that accurately predicts tensile strength of wet sand is presented. A closed form expression for tensile strength unifies tensile strength characteristics in all three water retention regimes: pendular, funicular, and capillary. Three parameters are employed in the theory; namely, the Internal friction angle (at low normal stress) ${\phi}_t$, the inverse value of the air-entry pressure ${\alpha}$, and the pore size spectrum parameter n. It is shown that the magnitude of peak tensile strength is dominantly controlled by the ${\alpha}$ parameter. The saturation at which peak tensile strength occurs only depends on the pore size spectrum parameter n.

The penetration testing provides 1 dimensional profiles of properties applicable to limited investigation areas, although N-value has been linked to a wide range of geotechnical design parameters based on empirical correlations. The nondestructive test using elastic waves is able to produce 2 or 3 dimensional property maps by inversion process with high efficiency in time and cost. As both N-value and elastic wave velocities share common dominant factors that include void ratio, degree of saturation, and in-situ effective stress, the correlation between the two properties has been empirically proposed by previous studies to assess engineering properties. This study presents the experimentally measured elastic wave velocities of Jumunjin sands under at-rest lateral displacement condition with varying the initial void ratio and degree of saturation. Results show that the stress condition predominantly influences the wave velocities whereas void ratio and saturation determine the stress-velocity tendency. The correlation among the dominant factors is proposed by multiple regression analysis with the discussion of relative impacts on parameters.

25.deg. C 에서 120.deg. C까지 온도를 증가시키면서 hot carrier effect에 의한 nMOSFET의 degradation을 drain current와 transconductance의 변화를 통해 알아보았다. 온도가 증가할수록 hot carrier에 의한 degradation 이 전체적으로 줄어드는 것을 볼수 있었다. stress를 가한 후 reverse mode로 측정하였는데 saturation 영역보다 linear 영역에서 drain current의 degradation이 크게 나탔으며 온도가 증가할수록 이러한 경향이 유지되면서 degradation이 감소하였다. transconductance는 linear 영역과 saturation 영역에서 각각 측정하였는데 온도가 증가할수록 linear 영역의 degradation이 더많이 감소하였다.

In this paper, We analyzed the current-voltage characteristics with n-type silicon substrates concentration and temperature variations (Room temperature, 50$^{\circ}C$, 75$^{\circ}C$) in platinum silicide and silicon junction. The electrical parameters of measurement are turn-on voltage, saturation current, ideality factor, barrier height, dynamic resistance in forward bias and reverse breakdown voltage according to variations of junction concentration of substrates and measurement temperature variations. As a result, the forward turn-on voltage, reverse breakdown voltage, barrier height and dynamic resistance were decreased but saturation currents and ideality factor were increased by substrates increased concentration variations in platinum silicide and n-silicon junction. In increased measurement temperature (RT, 50$^{\circ}C$, 75$^{\circ}C$), the extracted electrical parameter values of characteristics were rises by increased temperature variations according to the forward and reverse bias.

High saturation magnetization (B$\_$s/) and excellent high frequency characteristics of magnetic thin films has been recognized as the most important requirement for further miniaturization and higher frequency operation in magnetic devices, such as magnetic heads and magnetic sensors. Up to now, Fe-X-N (X =Ti, Hf, and Al etc.) films with B$\_$s/ of 15 ∼ 19 kG and coercivity (H$\_$c/) of 0.5 ∼ 5.0 Oe have been successfully fabricated and proven to satisfy various requirements as a potential candidate for thin film head materials.

A new approach is described for preparing AlN thin films containing various amounts of Co content by using a two-facing targets type sputtering (TFTS) system. The deposited films were annealed isothermally at different temperatures and their microstructure, magnetic properties and resistivity were investigated. A small saturation magnetization ($4{\pi}Ms=0.52{\sim}0.85kG$) was observed irrespective of Co content in the asdeposited films. It was found that annealing conditions can control physical properties as well as the microstructure of the films. A high saturation magnetization (3.7 kG) and resistivity of $2200{\mu}{\Omega}-cm$ was obtained for AlN films containing 25 at.% Co.

Atmospheric N deposition has far-reaching impacts on forest ecosystems, including on-site impacts such as soil acidification, fertilization, and nutrient imbalances, and off-site environmental impacts such as nitrate leaching and nitrous oxide emission. Although chronic N deposition has been believed to lead to forest N saturation, recent evidence suggests that N retention capacity, particularly in the forest floor, can be surprisingly high even under high N deposition. This review aims to provide an overview of N retention processes in the forest floor and the implications of changing C-N interactions for C sequestration. The fate of available N in forest soils has been explained by the competitive balance between tree roots, soil heterotrophs, and nitrifiers. However, high rates of N retention have been observed in numerous N addition experiments without noticeable increases in tree growth and soil respiration. Alternative hypotheses have been proposed to explain the gap between the input and loss of N in N-enriched, C-limited systems, including abiotic immobilization and mycorrhizal assimilation, both of which do not require additional C sources to incorporate N in soil N pools. Different fates of N in the forest floor have different implications for C sequestration. N-induced tree growth can enhance C accumulation in tree biomass as observed across temperate regions. C loss from forests can amount to or outweigh C gain in N-saturated, declining forests, while another type of 'C-N decoupling' can have positive or neutral effects on soil C sequestration through hampered organic matter decomposition or abiotic N immobilization, respectively.
