EUV lithography has emerged as a promising wafer patterning technique for facilitating the continued miniaturization of ...

It is shown that compressive mechanical stress considerably enhances the impact ionization rate and the generation of secondary electron-hole pairs. These can be trapped in the gate oxide and cause a ...

Automating the analysis portion of materials characterization by electron microscopy (EM) has the potential to accelerate the process of scientific discovery. To this end, we present a Bayesian ...

The researchers deployed a special quantum effect called the two-photon spin-exchange Auger process to produce hot electrons far more efficiently than before. This process allows two low-energy ...
