The quantitative model of atomic diffusion, which is related to the ultrasonic bonding parameters, time and distance, is established to calculate the atomic diffusion of the Al-Au interface. The maximum relative error between the calculated and experimental fraction of Al atom is 7.35%, indicating high prediction accuracy of this model. During the process of ultrasonic bonding, Au8Al3 is the main intermetallic compound (IMC) at the Al-Au interface. With larger bonding forces, higher ultrasonic powers and longer bonding time, it is more difficult to remove the oxide particles from the Al-Au interface, which hinders the atomic diffusion. Therefore, the complicated stress state and the existence of oxide particles both promotes the formation of holes. The shear strength of Al-Au ultrasonic bonding increases with increasing bonding force, ultrasonic power and bonding time. However, combined with the presence of holes at especial parameters, the optimal ultrasonic bonding parameter is confirmed to be a bonding force of 23 gf, ultrasonic power of 75 mW and bonding time of 21 ms.展开更多

Al3 Ni and Al4C3 phase may form at the interface in Ni-coated Gf/Al and uncoated Gf/Al composites, respectively, while the Al-Cu compound cannot be observed in Cu-coated Gf/Al composites. The Cu and Ni coatings enhance TC and the bending strength of the composites in the meantime. TC of Cu-coated Gf/Al composites reach 515 Wm^-1·K^-1 with 75 vol% Gf, which are higher than that of Ni-coated Gf/Al. Meanwhile, due to Al3 Ni at the interface, the bending strength of Ni-coated Gf/Al composites are far more than those of the uncoated and Cu-coated Gf/Al with the same content of Gf. The results indicate that metal-coated Gf can effectively improve the interfacial bonding between Gf and Al.展开更多

Based on the proposed model and the 65 nm complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) process parameter, the temperature of nano-scale interconnects is computed. The computed results show that the via effect has a great effect on local interconnects, but the reduction of thermal conductivity has little effect on local interconnects. With the reduction of thermal conductivity or the increase of current density, however, the temperature of global interconnects rises greatly, which can result in a great deterioration in their performance. The proposed model can be applied to computer aided design (CAD) of very large-scale integrated circuits (VLSIs) in nano-scale technologies.展开更多

In this paper, estimation of the yield and critical area is made using the Monte Carlo technique and the relationship between the errors of yield estimated by circular defect and the rectangle degree of the defect is analysed. The rectangular model of a real defect is presented, and the yield model is provided correspondingly. The models take into account an outline similar to that of an original defect, the characteristics of two-dimensional distribution of defects, the feature of a layout routing, and the character of yield estimation. In order to make the models practicable, the critical area computations related to rectangular defect and regular (vertical or horizontal) routing are discussed. The critical areas associated with rectangular defect and non- regular routing are developed also, based on the mathematical morphology. The experimental results show that the new yield model may predict the yield caused by real defects more accurately than the circular model. It is significant that the yield is accurately estimated using the proposed model for IC metals.展开更多

However, real defects and conductors associated with optimal layout design exhibit a great variety of shapes. Based on mathematical morphology, a new critical area model is presented, which can be used to estimate the critical area of short circuit, open circuit and pinhole. Based on the new model, the efficient validity check algorithms are explored to extract critical areas of short circuit, open circuit and pinhole from layouts. The results of experiment on an approximate layout of 4 × 4 shifts register show that the new model predicts the critical areas accurately. These results suggest that the proposed model and algorithm could provide new approaches for yield prediction.展开更多

This paper presents the design and the implementation of LVDS Input/Output (I/O) interface circuits in a standard 0.18 μm CMOS technology using thick gate oxide devices (3.3 V), fully compatible with LVDS standard. In the proposed transmitter, a novel Common-Mode FeedBack (CMFB)circuit is utilized to keep the common-mode output voltage stable over Process, supply Voltage and Temperature (PVT) variations. Because there are no area greedy resistors in the CMFB circuitry, the disadvantage of large die area in existing transmitter structures is avoided. To obtain sufficient gain, the receiver consists of three am- plifying stages: a voltage amplifying stage, a transconductance amplifying stage, and a transimpedance amplifying stage. And to exclude inner nodes with high RC time constant, shunt-shunt negative feedback is introduced in the receiver. A novel active inductor shunt peaking structure is used in the receiver to fulfill the stringent requirements of high speed and wide Common-Mode Input Region (CMIR) without voltage gain, power dissipation and silicon area penalty. Simulation results show that data rates of 2 Gbps and 2.5 Gbps are achieved for the transmitter and receiver with power con- sumption of 13.2 mW and 8.3 mW respectively.展开更多

The theoretical results are compared with one of the highest measured of 2DEG mobility reported for AlGaN/GaN heterostructures. The 2DEG mobility is modelled as a combined effect of the scat- tering mechanisms including acoustic deformation-potential, piezoelectric, ionized background donor, surface donor, dislocation, alloy disorder and interface roughness scattering. The analyses of the individual scattering processes show that the dominant scattering mechanisms are the alloy disorder scattering and the interface roughness scattering at low temperatures. The variation of 2DEG mobility with the barrier layer parameters results mainly from the change of 2DEG density and distribution. It is suggested that in AlGaN/GaN samples with a high Al content or a thick AlGaN layer, the interface roughness scattering may restrict the 2DEG mobility significantly, for the AlGaN/GaN interface roughness increases due to the stress accumulation in AlGaN layer.展开更多

The basic requirements of electric-static equilibrium for the heterostructure systems are discussed first, and it is deduced that in the application of the coupled Schroedinger-Poisson model to the heterostructures of electric static equilibrium state, zero external electric field guarantees the overall electric neutrality, and there is no need to introduce the charge balance equation. Then the relation between the screening of the polar charges in GaN-based heterostructures and the possible boundary conditions of the Poisson equation is analysed, it is shown that the various boundary conditions are equivalent to each other, and the surface charge, which can be used in studying the screening of the polar charges, can be precisely solved even if only the conduction band energy is correctly known at the surface. Finally, through the calculations on an AlGaN/GaN heterostructure with typical structure parameters by the coupled Schroedinger-Poisson model under the various boundary conditions, the correctness of the above analyses are validated.展开更多

By the self-consistent solving of one-dimensional Schroedinger- Poisson equations, theoretical investigation is carried out about the effects of donor density (0-1×10^19 cm^-3) and temperature (50-500 K) on the electron systems in the AlGaN/AlN/GaN and AlGaN/GaN structures. It is found that in the former structure, since the effective △Ec is larger, the efficiency with which the 2DEG absorbs the electrons originating from donor ionization is higher, the resistance to parallel conduction is stronger, and the deterioration of 2DEG mobility is slower as the donor density rises. When temperature rises, the three-dimensional properties of the whole electron system become prominent for both of the structures, but the stability of 2DEG is higher in the former structure, which is also ascribed to the larger effective △Ec. The Capacitance-Voltage (C - V) carrier density profiles at different temperatures are measured for two Schottky diodes on the considered heterostructure samples separately, showing obviously different 2DEG densities. And the temperature-dependent tendency of the experimental curves agrees well with our calculations.展开更多

The quantitative model of atomic diffusion, which is related to the ultrasonic bonding parameters, time and distance, is established to calculate the atomic diffusion of the Al-Au interface. The maximum relative error between the calculated and experimental fraction of Al atom is 7.35%, indicating high prediction accuracy of this model. During the process of ultrasonic bonding, Au8Al3 is the main intermetallic compound (IMC) at the Al-Au interface. With larger bonding forces, higher ultrasonic powers and longer bonding time, it is more difficult to remove the oxide particles from the Al-Au interface, which hinders the atomic diffusion. Therefore, the complicated stress state and the existence of oxide particles both promotes the formation of holes. The shear strength of Al-Au ultrasonic bonding increases with increasing bonding force, ultrasonic power and bonding time. However, combined with the presence of holes at especial parameters, the optimal ultrasonic bonding parameter is confirmed to be a bonding force of 23 gf, ultrasonic power of 75 mW and bonding time of 21 ms.

文摘The effects of adding small amounts of cerium(Ce) to Sn-3.3 Ag-0.2 Cu-4.7 Bi solder on microstructure,wettability characteristic,interfacial morphology and the growth of interfacial intermetallic compound(IMC) during thermal cycling were investigated by optical microscopy(OM),scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and solderability tester.It is found that the p-Sn phase,Ag_(3)Sn phase and Cu6 Sn5 phase in the solder are refined and the wetting force increases.Ce is an active element;it more easily accumulates at the solder/flux interface in the molten state,which decreases the interfacial surface energy and reduces the driving force for IMC formation on Cu substrate;therefore,the thickness of IMC at the solder/Cu interface decreases when appropriate Ce was added into the solder.Moreover,the Ce-containing solders have lower growth rate of interfacial IMC than solders without Ce during the thermal cycling between-55 and 125℃.When the Ce content is 0.03 wt% in the Sn-3.3 Ag-0.2 Cu-4.7 Bi solder,the solder has the best wettability and the minimum growth rate of interfacial IMC layer.
文摘In current critical area models, it is generally assumed the defect outlines are circular and the conductors to be rectangle or the merger of rectangles. However, real defects and conductors associated with optimal layout design exhibit a great variety of shapes. Based on mathematical morphology, a new critical area model is presented, which can be used to estimate the critical area of short circuit, open circuit and pinhole. Based on the new model, the efficient validity check algorithms are explored to extract critical areas of short circuit, open circuit and pinhole from layouts. The results of experiment on an approximate layout of 4 × 4 shifts register show that the new model predicts the critical areas accurately. These results suggest that the proposed model and algorithm could provide new approaches for yield prediction.
文摘Low Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS) has become a popular choice for high-speed serial links to conquer the bandwidth bottleneck of intra-chip data transmission. This paper presents the design and the implementation of LVDS Input/Output (I/O) interface circuits in a standard 0.18 μm CMOS technology using thick gate oxide devices (3.3 V), fully compatible with LVDS standard. In the proposed transmitter, a novel Common-Mode FeedBack (CMFB)circuit is utilized to keep the common-mode output voltage stable over Process, supply Voltage and Temperature (PVT) variations. Because there are no area greedy resistors in the CMFB circuitry, the disadvantage of large die area in existing transmitter structures is avoided. To obtain sufficient gain, the receiver consists of three am- plifying stages: a voltage amplifying stage, a transconductance amplifying stage, and a transimpedance amplifying stage. And to exclude inner nodes with high RC time constant, shunt-shunt negative feedback is introduced in the receiver. A novel active inductor shunt peaking structure is used in the receiver to fulfill the stringent requirements of high speed and wide Common-Mode Input Region (CMIR) without voltage gain, power dissipation and silicon area penalty. Simulation results show that data rates of 2 Gbps and 2.5 Gbps are achieved for the transmitter and receiver with power con- sumption of 13.2 mW and 8.3 mW respectively.

文摘This paper proposes a reasonable radiation-resistant composite channel structure for In P HEMTs.The simulation results show that the composite channel structure has excellent electrical properties due to increased modulation doping efficiency and carrier confinement.Moreover,the direct current(DC)and radio frequency(RF)characteristics and their reliability between the single channel structure and the composite channel structure after 75-ke V proton irradiation are compared in detail.The results show that the composite channel structure has excellent radiation tolerance.Mechanism analysis demonstrates that the composite channel structure weakens the carrier removal effect.This phenomenon can account for the increase of native carrier and the decrease of defect capture rate.

文摘The electrochemical dissolution and passivation of laser additive manufactured Ti6Al4V were investigated through Tafel polarization,potentiostatic polarization and AC impedance measurements.The results show that the solution treatment−aging(STA)process aggravates the element micro-segregation compared to the annealing process,leading to varied Al and V contents of the phases from different samples.It is proven that either Al-rich or V-rich condition can highly affect the electrochemical dissolution behaviors due to thermodynamical instability caused by element segregation.The dissolution rate in the metastable passivation process is controlled by the stability of the produced film that is affected by phases distribution,especially the difficult-to-dissolve phase.And then,the dissolution rate of the phases in the transpassivation region is consistent with the rank in the activation process because the dense film is not capable of being produced.Compared to the annealed sample,the higher dissolution rate of the STA sample is beneficial to the electrochemical machining(ECM)of Ti6Al4V.

文摘To reveal the internal physics of the low-temperature mobility of two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in Al- GaN/GaN heterostructures, we present a theoretical study of the strong dependence of 2DEG mobility on Al content and thickness of AlGaN barrier layer. The theoretical results are compared with one of the highest measured of 2DEG mobility reported for AlGaN/GaN heterostructures. The 2DEG mobility is modelled as a combined effect of the scat- tering mechanisms including acoustic deformation-potential, piezoelectric, ionized background donor, surface donor, dislocation, alloy disorder and interface roughness scattering. The analyses of the individual scattering processes show that the dominant scattering mechanisms are the alloy disorder scattering and the interface roughness scattering at low temperatures. The variation of 2DEG mobility with the barrier layer parameters results mainly from the change of 2DEG density and distribution. It is suggested that in AlGaN/GaN samples with a high Al content or a thick AlGaN layer, the interface roughness scattering may restrict the 2DEG mobility significantly, for the AlGaN/GaN interface roughness increases due to the stress accumulation in AlGaN layer.
文摘In the GaN-based heterostructures, this paper reports that the strong electric fields induced by polarization effects at the structure boundaries complicate the electric-static equilibrium and the boundary conditions. The basic requirements of electric-static equilibrium for the heterostructure systems are discussed first, and it is deduced that in the application of the coupled Schroedinger-Poisson model to the heterostructures of electric static equilibrium state, zero external electric field guarantees the overall electric neutrality, and there is no need to introduce the charge balance equation. Then the relation between the screening of the polar charges in GaN-based heterostructures and the possible boundary conditions of the Poisson equation is analysed, it is shown that the various boundary conditions are equivalent to each other, and the surface charge, which can be used in studying the screening of the polar charges, can be precisely solved even if only the conduction band energy is correctly known at the surface. Finally, through the calculations on an AlGaN/GaN heterostructure with typical structure parameters by the coupled Schroedinger-Poisson model under the various boundary conditions, the correctness of the above analyses are validated.

文摘Machine learning(ML)methods with good applicability to complex and highly nonlinear sequences have been attracting much attention in recent years for predictions of complicated mechanical properties of various materials.As one of the widely known ML methods,back-propagation(BP)neural networks with and without optimization by genetic algorithm(GA)are also established for comparisons of time cost and prediction error.With the aim to further increase the prediction accuracy and efficiency,this paper proposes a long short-term memory(LSTM)networks model to predict the dynamic compressive performance of concrete-like materials at high strain rates.Dynamic explicit analysis is performed in the finite element(FE)software ABAQUS to simulate various waveforms in the split Hopkinson pressure bar(SHPB)experiments by applying different stress waves in the incident bar.The FE simulation accuracy is validated against SHPB experimental results from the viewpoint of dynamic increase factor.In order to cover more extensive loading scenarios,60 sets of FE simulations are conducted in this paper to generate three kinds of waveforms in the incident and transmission bars of SHPB experiments.By training the proposed three networks,the nonlinear mapping relations can be reasonably established between incident,reflect,and transmission waves.Statistical measures are used to quantify the network prediction accuracy,confirming that the predicted stress-strain curves of concrete-like materials at high strain rates by the proposed networks agree sufficiently with those by FE simulations.It is found that compared with BP network,the GA-BP network can effectively stabilize the network structure,indicating that the GA optimization improves the prediction accuracy of the SHPB dynamic responses by performing the crossover and mutation operations of weights and thresholds in the original BP network.By eliminating the long-time dependencies,the proposed LSTM network achieves better results than the BP and GA-BP networks,since smaller mean square error(MSE)and higher correlation coefficient are achieved.More importantly,the proposed LSTM algorithm,after the training process with a limited number of FE simulations,could replace the time-consuming and laborious FE pre-and post-processing and modelling.
文摘It was reported by Shen et al that the two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) in an AlGaN/AlN/GaN structure showed high density and improved mobility compared with an AlGaN/GaN structure, but the potential of the AlGaN/AlN/GaN structure needs further exploration. By the self-consistent solving of one-dimensional Schroedinger- Poisson equations, theoretical investigation is carried out about the effects of donor density (0-1×10^19 cm^-3) and temperature (50-500 K) on the electron systems in the AlGaN/AlN/GaN and AlGaN/GaN structures. It is found that in the former structure, since the effective △Ec is larger, the efficiency with which the 2DEG absorbs the electrons originating from donor ionization is higher, the resistance to parallel conduction is stronger, and the deterioration of 2DEG mobility is slower as the donor density rises. When temperature rises, the three-dimensional properties of the whole electron system become prominent for both of the structures, but the stability of 2DEG is higher in the former structure, which is also ascribed to the larger effective △Ec. The Capacitance-Voltage (C - V) carrier density profiles at different temperatures are measured for two Schottky diodes on the considered heterostructure samples separately, showing obviously different 2DEG densities. And the temperature-dependent tendency of the experimental curves agrees well with our calculations.
