Femtosecond time-resolved optical techniques have been shown to generate coherent phonons in some semimetals and narrow gap semiconductors. A previously-reported model describes the mechanism for generation of coherent lattice vibrations via the optically excited carriers. One of the most interesting consequences of such coherent lattice motion is the modulation of the electronic bands - and possibly of the transport properties of the material - at a THz timescale. Preliminary results are given for a band structure calculation, performed to evaluate the magnitude of these laser-induced band shifts.

Presents a model of coarse grain dataflow execution. The authors present one top down and two bottom up methods for generation of multithreaded code, and evaluate their effectiveness. The bottom up techniques start from a fine-grain dataflow graph and coalesce this into coarse-grain clusters. The top down technique generates clusters directly from the intermediate data dependence graph used for compiler optimizations. The authors discuss the relevant phases in the compilation process. They compare the effectiveness of the strategies by measuring the total number of clusters executed, the total number of instructions executed, cluster size, and number of matches per cluster. It turns out that the top down method generates more efficient code, and larger clusters. However the number of matches per cluster is larger for the top down method, which could incur higher cluster synchronization costs.< >

The dielectric properties of water-treed crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) were studied by using a hollow microwave wave-guide system between 135 MHz and 13.6 GHz. The dielectric loss of water-treed XLPE is proportional to water content. Water-treed XLPE has a low relaxation frequency which is probably due to bound water. The binding of water in trees was confirmed by the lower apparent water diffusion rate in treed XLPE than in undamaged controls measured with a radioactive tracer method.

The Supercomputer Toolkit is a family of hardware modules (processors, memory, interconnect, and input-output devices) and a collection of software modules (compilers, simulators, scientific libraries, and high-level front ends) from which high-performance special-purpose computers can be easily configured and programmed. Although there are many examples of special-purpose computers (see Ref. 4), the Toolkit approach is different in that our aim is to construct these machines from standard, reusable parts. These are combined by means of a user-reconfigurable, static interconnect technology. The Toolkit’s software support, based on novel compilation techniques, produces extremely high-performance numerical code from high-level language input. We have completed fabrication of the Toolkit processor module, and several critical software modules. An eight-processor configuration is running at mit. We have used the prototype Toolkit to perform a breakthrough computation of scientific importance—an integration of the motion of the Solar System that extends previous results by nearly two orders of magnitude. While the Toolkit project is not complete, we believe our results show evidence that generating special-purpose computers from standard modules can be an important method of performing intensive scientific computing. This paper briefly describes the Toolkit’s hardware and software modules, the Solar System simulation, conclusions and future plans.

Bi1−xSbx alloys undergo a semimetal-semiconductor transition at x = 0.065 and 0.22 and are semiconducting between these limits. We investigate this system by means of femtosecond time-resolved experiments, and observe an optical response similar to those in Bi, Sb, Te and Ti2O3. A previously-reported model describes the mechanism of generation of coherent lattice vibrations via the optically excited carriers in this class of materials. As predicted by the model, the modulated reflectivity signal ΔR/R in Bi.88Sb.12 shows a beating oscillatory behavior with the Bi-Bi and Bi-Sb A1g vibrational frequencies. Model-based calculations of the ΔR background relaxation time at different Sb compositions provide understanding of the carrier and lattice dynamics throughout the transition.

The electrical characteristics of ultrathin reoxidized nitrided oxide (ROXNOX) gate dielectrics grown in a low pressure furnace at 850 degrees C have been investigated extensively. Experimental results show that a 1000 degrees C rapid thermal annealing (RTA) process after gate dielectric growth and polysilicon deposition can significantly reduce the levels of fixed charge and interface states in ROXNOX dielectrics. It has been demonstrated that a 45 AA ROXNOX gate dielectric can successfully block boron diffusion into the device channel region over a wide range of dopant activation temperatures and times. Channel mobilities for ROXNOX gate NMOS and PMOS devices are increased after the RTA process due to the improvement in dielectric quality, while the enhanced device reliability under hot carrier stress is maintained.< >
