We have constructed a room-temperature magnetic refrigerator, which was designed to provide kW class of cooling capacity at the temperature span of zero. The system uses two sets of ring Halbach-array magnetic circuit with a peak field of 1.5 Tesla, which are sandwiching a disk shaped active magnetic regenerator bed (AMr bed). The disk type AMr bed is divided into 12 sections. Each section is packed with sphere gadolinium (Gd) or Gd alloys (Gd-Y) compounds. Total amount of the magnetocaloric materials packed into one disk type AMr bed is 3.6 kg. The magnets rotate up to 40 rpm. The flow rate of the heat transfer fluid is up to 25 liter per minute. It is demonstrated that the cooling capacity is 1.4 kW at the temperature span of zero, and the maximum temperature span is 21 K under the no heat load condition using Gd and Gd-Y compound. In order to analyze the thermal characteristics of the kW class refrigerator, one-dimensional numerical simulations have been carried out. The simulations use experimentally obtained and predicted magnetocaloric properties of magnetocaloric materials. The one-dimensional simulations can describe the experimental results even in the actual condition of two-dimensional AMr bed shape. It is confirmed from experiment and numerical analysis that layered AMr bed which is packed with multiple materials gives larger maximum temperature span than that which is packed with a single material.

The current status of (Ba, Sr)TiO3 [BST] capacitortechnology using a liquid source chemical vapordeposition (CVd) method is reviewed, focusing on the CVd techniques and the physical, electrical and process-integration-related properties of ru/BST/ru capacitors. The use of a new titanium metalorganic (MO) source, titanium bis(tert-butoxy) bis(dipivaloylmethanato) [Ti(tertBuO)2 (dPM)2] dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (THF) turned out to enable highly conformal deposition of BST films with a coverage ratio of ∼ 70 % for a trench with an aspect ratio of ∼ 5. Electrical properties of a 24-nm-thick BST film, deposited on a Pt substrate at a low substrate temperature of 480 °C, were also confirmed to be equivalent SiO2 thickness (teq) of ∼ 0.5 nm and leakage current of ∼ 1 ×10-7 A/cm2 at 1 V. As for the ru/BST/ru capacitors, no deteriorations of ru electrode and BST/ru interface were observed after 750 °C post-annealing experiment, showing good thermal stability of ru as a practical electrode material. Although current leak through ru/BST/ru capacitors slightly increased after the H2 annealing, such degradation in the leakage properties was restored by post-annealing in N2 ambience. Integratedru/BST/ru capacitors with a 30-nm-thick CVd-BST film were fabricated by 0.5 μm ULSI technology, and low leakage current was confirmed for the stacked capacitors. regarding the reproducibility of BST deposition by the liquid source CVd method, the deviation ratio of ∼ ± 2.3 % in film thickness was obtained for ∼ 100 successive depositions, thickness uniformity across the wafers was ∼ ± 1.1 %. The above results imply the potential applicability of BST capacitortechnology using a liquid source CVd method for Gbit-scale drAMs.

A new sol-gel route to obtain PLZT thin film was developed by combining the advantage of 2-methoxyethanol as a solvent and acetylacetone as a chelating agent. The sol maintained the same stable state as that of fresh synthesized sol even after 60 days of aging. The PLZT films spin coated onto a Pt/Ti/SiO2 substrate with 15% Pb excess and 7.5% La added sol showed well developedrosette microstructure of uniform grain sizes(0.3 - 0.5 μm) and gave well behaved ferroelectric properties with the values of Ps, Pr, and Ec of 40 μC/cm2, 15 μ C/cm2, and 20 kV/cm respectively at 5V after 650 °C and above annealing. The degradation in polarization of 2.5% La doped PLZT thin film was found to be less than 20% up to 1012 cycles

Thermo-mechanical stresses in MCM-d substrate are important reliability and fabrication issues. The differences in co of thermal expansion (CTE) between substrate, polymer, and metal leads to complicated stress fields in multilevel interconnect structures. While the majority of reports in the literature have focused on spin-coated polyimides, this paper mainly focuses on laminated polymerdielectrics. This study uses material sets representing typical MCM-d structures to monitor the stress level in the polymer films. The substrate deflection caused by composite stresses during fabrication and thermal cycling test is determined by a curvature measurement technique. A simple analytical model which predicts a stress contribution from each individual layerduring MCM-d substrate fabrication is proposed anddeveloped by computer simulation as well. The composite stress or bowing in multilayer structures is due to the summation of each individual layer contribution. From a thermo-mechanical stress viewpoint, Ultem® thermoplastic and the epoxy thermoset adhesive exhibit quite different behaviors. In case of the epoxy thermoset adhesive, the amount of bowing increases as number of layers increases and its behavior can be predicted by an elastic model. However, in the case of the Ultem® thermoplastic adhesive, bow values become stabilized as number of layers increases because of the stress relaxation effect of the thermoplastic adhesive during lamination process above Tg of the Ultem® thermoplastic.

Inkjet technology was used in a mass production process to form an alignment layer on high-temperature polysilicon TFT liquid crystal panels used in LCd projectors. This is the first-ever inkjet process for forming alignment layers in an LCd manufacturing process. Surface treatment, inkjet ejection, and post-print drying processes were integrated, and process conditions and printing materials were optimized, thereby sharply improving display quality while reducing process environmental impact.

We have investigated charge transport in ultrasmall superconducting single anddouble Josephson junctions coupled to resonant modes of the electromagnetic environment. We observe pronounced current peaks in the transport characteristics of both types of devices and attribute them to the process involving simultaneous tunneling of Cooper pairs and photon emission into the resonant modes. The experimental data are well reproduced with the theoretical models.

A novel process for fabricating field emission display (FEd) devices with pulse dC electrophoresis deposition (EPd) method in water base solution is proposed. Electrophoresis deposition method can be applied to both cathode and anode fabrication process. It is a fast and low cost process that is easily scaling up for large size panel. Mixing MWNT, which is synthesized by arc-discharge, and some “charger” with water, we can get CNT solution for EPd method. Cathode is coated with CNT film by the EPd method and using pulse electric field source. After some simple process of baking process and surface treatment, we can get the CNT-FEd cathode with good emission performance.

We show that the noise spectrum of a parametrically excited nonlinear oscillator can display a fine structure. It emerges from the interplay of the nonequidistance of the oscillator quasienergy levels and quantum heating that accompanies relaxation. The heating leads to a finite-width distribution over the quasienergy, or Floquet states, even for zero temperature of the thermal reservoir coupled to the oscillator. The fine structure is due to transitions from different quasienergy levels, and thus it provides a sensitive tool for studying the distribution. For largerdamping, where the fine structure is smeared out, quantum heating can be detected from the characteristic double-peak structure of the spectrum, which results from transitions accompanied by the increase ordecrease of the quasienergy.
