By developing a chalcogenide memory element that can be operated at low writing current, we have demonstrated the possibility of high-density phase-change random access memory. We have investigated the phase transition behaviors as a function of various process factors including contact size, cell size and thickness, doping concentration in chalcogenide material and cell structure. As a result, we have observed that the writing current is reduceddown to 0.7 mA.

Carbon nanofibers of diameter 200 nm may be used as an additive to thermoplastics for applications requiring electrical conductivity and enhanced mechanical properties. The electrical properties of nanofiber in thermoplastics such as nylon and polypropylene and are very attractive compared with those provided by other conventional conducting additives. Because of the low diameter of the nanofibers used, the onset of electrical conductivity (percolation threshold) can be below 1 volume %. Because of the highly conductive nature of the fibers, particularly after a graphitization step, the composites can reach resistivities as low as 0.15 Ohm cm. These conducting composites may be used for applications such as radio frequency interference shielding, primerless electrostatic painting, and static discharge. In order to make composites having excellent mechanical properties, good adhesion between fiber and matrix is essential. Carbon nanofiber-matrix adhesion was studied after surface treating the fibers using a variety of methods. Among as-grown fibers, those produced with longer gas phase feedstock residence times in the fiber growth reactor were less graphitic but adhered to a polypropylene matrix better, giving improved tensile strength and modulus Two chemical treatments were found to be somewhat effective in increasing tensile strength, but both decreased the modulus.. A modest degree of oxidation was also found to increase adhesion to the matrix and increase composite tensile strength, while extended oxidation attacked the fibers sufficiently to decrease composite properties.

This paper evaluates the performance of a mesh optical burst switched (OBS) network that implements tunable lasers and tunable wavelength converters to realize the optical label setting and optical label swapping functions. We define a realistic service evolution scenario and based on that create a realistic future traffic input scenario for the OBS network. Network simulation studies are carried out in slotted operation. The mechanisms that govern the operation of this network are revealed together with a number of design tradeoffs.

For the first time, fully working 512 Mb drAMS have been developed successfully using an 80 nm drAM technology, which is the smallest feature size in drAM technology everreported. With an ArF lithography, recess-channel-array-transistors (rCAT), low-temperature MIS capacitor technologies and a newly developed top spacer storage node contact (TSC), we have realized these 512 Mb drAMS. Also, we have reduced process steps, including the layerrequiring ArF lithography, by using the TSC process.

Shock compaction for Nd-system superconductor particles have been investigated by shock compaction technique. After the shock compaction characterizations of as-shocked and annealed Nd-system superconductor particles are investigated by X-ray diffraction (Xrd)-analysis for the measurements of lattice parameters and SQUId magnetometer-measurements for the susceptibility. SEM(scanning electron microscopy)-observations of as-shocked and annealed Nd-system superconductor particles are carried out for the grain growth with growth steps. As a result, the as-shocked specimen showed an oriented crystal structure with the lattice constants of the orthorhombic cell with a=0.5787 nm, b=0.5874 nm and c=1.17462 nm for as-shocked Nd-Ba-Cu-O calculated by Xrd just after the shock compaction under 5.7 GPa. From SEM-observations, the surface of the specimens for as-shocked Nd-system superconductor has large grains of 4-10 /spl mu/m in length partly with large growth-steps caused mainly by heats generated in shock compaction.

Magnetic and electrical properties of MTJs were investigated at each fabrication step during the process integration of high performance 64 Kb magnetic random access memory (MrAM). Studies showed that the coercivity of the free layer of the sub-micron sized MTJs increased with an enlarged hysteresis due to the demagnetizing field and the interlayer coupling. High TMrratio of ≡ 35% was obtained from the optimization of the layers consisting of the MTJs.

CNT paste was made by mixture of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNT) powder, organic vehicles and inorganic binder. Then firing process was performed at different temperature under air and N/sub 2/ atmosphere. It was found that emission property of CNT paste was changed by firing temperature due to remainedresin. We obtained good emission property from CNT paste treated at 350/spl deg/C.

After multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNT) powder was crushed with ball milling process, it was mixed with organic vehicles. And then CNT paste was printed on ITO coated glass substrate. The field emission characteristics of CNT pastes fired in air atmosphere was better than that of CNT paste fired in Ar ambient due to less organic residues after firing.

The surface tension and wettability of liquid Fe-16 mass%Cr-S alloy with alumina substrate at 1823 K and the temperature dependence of surface tension of liquid Fe-16 mass% Cr-S alloy in the temperature range of 1808-1883 K were measured using the sessile drop technique. The surface tension and contact angle of liquid Fe-16 mass%Cr-S alloys with alumina substrate decreased markedly with increasing sulphur concentration in the alloys. The variation of surface tension of liquid Fe-16 mass% Cr-S alloys with sulphur activity can be described by the following equation: σ1g = 1640 - 182 ln(1 + 157as) (mass% O=0.0037-0.0075, mass% S &le 0.195) (mN/m). The interfacial tension between liquid Fe-16 mass% Cr-S alloys and alumina substrate, calculated using Young's equation, can be expressed by the following equation: σs1 = 2170 - 220 ln(1 + 237as) (mass% O=0.0037-0.0075, mass% S &le 0.195) (mN/m). The work of adhesion between liquid Fe-16 mass% Cr-S alloys and alumina had a tendency to increase with increasing sulphur concentration. The temperature coefficient of surface tension, dσ/dT, for Fe-16 mass% Cr-S system in the temperature range of 1808-1883 K increased with increasing sulphur concentration, and changed from negative to positive value when the sulphur concentration exceeded 20 mass ppm.
