Journal ArticleDOI
Radiation induced leakage current and stress induced leakage current in ultra-thin gate oxides
TL;DR: In this paper, a low-field leakage current was measured in thin oxides after exposure to ionising radiation, which can be described as an inelastic tunnelling process mediated by neutral traps in the oxide, with an energy loss of about 1 eV.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trapping phenomena in AlGaN/GaN HEMTs: a study based on pulsed and transient measurements
Gaudenzio Meneghesso,Matteo Meneghini,Davide Bisi,Isabella Rossetto,Andrea Cester,Umesh K. Mishra,Enrico Zanoni +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed description of trap levels located in the gate-drain surface, and in the region under the gate of AlGaN/GaN HEMTs is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Accelerated wear-out of ultra-thin gate oxides after irradiation
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated how gate oxides react to a subsequent electrical stress performed at low voltages and demonstrated that the radiation damage acts as a seed for further oxide degradation by electrical stress during the device operating life.
Journal ArticleDOI
Flexible and Organic Neural Interfaces: A Review
Nicolò Lago,Andrea Cester +1 more
TL;DR: The latest achievements in flexible and organic neural interfaces for the recording of neuronal activity are reviewed, creating more flexible and conformable neural interfaces that can be intrinsically biocompatible.
Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal stress effects on Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells (DSSCs)
D. Bari,Nicola Wrachien,Roberto Tagliaferro,Stefano Penna,T.M. Brown,Andrea Reale,A. Di Carlo,Gaudenzio Meneghesso,Andrea Cester +8 more
TL;DR: It is found that temperature alone strongly impacts on the DSSC performances, enhancing the degradation of the sensitizer and then reducing the photo-generated current.
