The SONOSFET Shows low operation voltage, high cell density, anti good endurance due to modified Fowler-Nordheim tunneling as memory charge injection method. In this paper, therefore, the NOR-type Flash EEPROM composed of SONOSFET, which has fast lead operation speed and Random Access characteristics, is proposed. An 8${\times}$8 bit NOR-type SONOSFET Flash EEPROM had been designed and its electrical characteristics were verified. Read/Write/Erase operations of it were verified with the spice parameters of SONOSFETs which had Oxide-Nitride-Oxide thickness of 65${\AA}$-165${\AA}$-35${\AA}$ and that of scaled down as 33${\AA}$-53${\AA}$-22${\AA}$, respectively. When the memory window of the scaled-down SONOSFET with 8V operation was similar to that of the SONOSFET with 13V operation, the Read operation delay times of the scaled-down SONOSFET were 25.4ns at erase state and 32.6ns at program state, respectively, and those of the SONOSFET were 23.5ns at erase state and 28.2ns at program state, respectively.

We have investigated the Pt doping effect on structural and electrochemical properties of amorphous vanadium oxide film, grown by radio frequency magnetron sputtering. Room temperature charge-discharge measurements based on a half-cell with a constant current clearly indicated that the Pt doping could improve the cyclibility of V$_2$O$_{5}$ cathode film. Using glancing angle x-ray diffraction (GXRD) and high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) analysis, we found that the Pt doping with l0W r.f. power induce more random amorphous structure than undoped V$_2$O$_{5}$ film. As the r.f. power of Pt increases, large amount of Pt incorporates into amorphous V$_2$O$_{5}$ and makes PtOx microcrystalline phase in amorphous matrix. This result suggests that the semicondcuting PtOx microcrystalline phase in amorphous matrix lead to a drastically faded cyclibility of 50W Pt doped V$_2$O$_{5}$ cathode film. Possible explanations are given to describe the Pt doping effect on cyclibility of vanadium oxide cathode film.de film.

In thermal barrier coating (TBC) systems, the life of the coating depends on thermally grown oxide (TGO) layer because most of the failure of TBCs occurs when TGO growth increases. In order to inhibit TGO growth, process was additionally carried out before the heat treatment of the TBC coating layer at $1200^{\circ}C$ in air. In the additional process, heat treatment in vacuum furnace of < $10^{-5}$ torr was conducted for 7 h and 14 h before the heat treatment. The area and length of TGO, as well as the crack length in the TBC were characterized using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The TGO thickness and crack of specimens pre-heat treated in vacuum furnace were reduced by 45% compare to those heat treated in furnace. Consequently, pre-heat treatment in a vacuum furnace process lead to effective inhibition of growth of the TGO.

As the European Community's Directive on the Restriction of Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment banning lead (Pb) in electronics products will take effect on July 1, 2006, most electronics manufacturers will be commencing with volume production of Pb-free components by the middle of 2004. Electrodeposited pure tin finishes on electronic components are a leading contender to replace the industry standard tin-lead. Commensurate with this shift will be a somewhat steep learning curve as manufacturers adapt a variety of equipment and processes to contend with the issues surrounding this critical, industry-wide material conversion. Since the electrodeposited finish directly influences the critical reliability characteristics of the component itself, the nature of the Pb-free component finish must be well characterized and understood. Only through a thorough examination of the attributes of the electroplated tin deposit can critical decisions be made regarding component finish reliability. This paper investigates the properties of electrodeposited tin that may have an effect on component reliability, namely, grain structure (size and shape), oxide formation, tin whisker formation, and solderability. Data will be presented from laboratory and production settings, with the objective being to enable manufacturers to draw their own conclusions regarding previously established perceptions and misconceptions about electrodeposited tin properties.

In this study, in order to develop excellent lead-free composition ceramics for piezoelectric transformer, $(K_4CuNb_8O_{23})$ added $(K_{0.5}Na_{0.5})(Nb_{0.96}Sb_{0.04})O_3$ ceramics were fabricated using conventional mixed oxide method and their piezoelectric and dielectric properties were investigated as a function of the amount of KCN addition. With increasing the amount of KCN addition, density and mechanical quality factor(Qm), electromechanical coupling factor (Kp) were increased up to 1.2mol% and then decreased. At the 1.2mol% KCN added specimen, mechanical quality factor (Qm), electromechanical coupling factor (Kp), density and dielectric constant (${\varepsilon}r$) showed the optimal values of 781, 0.445, $4.42g/cm^3$ and 443, respectively, for piezoelectric transformer application.
