The Effects of Scaling and Bias Configuration on Operating-Voltage Constraints in SiGe HBTs for Mixed-Signal Circuits

This paper presents a comprehensive picture of operating-voltage constraints in SiGe heterojunction bipolar transistors, addressing breakdown-related issues as they relate to technology generation, bias configuration, and operating-current density. New definitions for breakdown voltage, adopted from standard measurements, are presented. Practical design implications and physical origins of breakdown are explored using calibrated 2-D simulations and quasi-3-D compact models. Device-level analysis of ac instabilities and power performance, which is relevant to mixed-signal circuit design, is presented, and implications of the relaxed voltage constraints for common-base operation are explored.

Investigation of texture effect on visual colour difference evaluation

The texture effect on visual colour difference evaluation was investigated in this study. Five colour centers were selected and textured colour pairs were generated using scanned textile woven fabrics and colour‐mapping technique. The textured and solid colour pairs were then displayed on a characterized cathode ray tube (CRT) monitor for colour difference evaluation. The colour difference values for the pairs with texture patterns are equal to 5.0 CIELAB units in lightness direction. The texture level was represented by the half‐width of histogram, which is called texture strength in this study. High correlation was found between texture strength and visual colour difference for textured colour pairs, which indicates that an increasing of 10 units of texture strength in luminance would cause a decreasing of 0.25 units visual difference for the five colour centers. The ratio of visual difference between textured and solid colour pairs also indicates a high parametric effect of texture. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

快乐女人的无“炎”夏日

盛夏时节，女人们裙摆飞扬，显得更加妩媚动人。然而，持续的高温湿热，妇科炎症也会乘虚而入。专家们认为，夏季之所以成为妇科炎症的高发季节，主要原因是天气闷热，特别是南方地区的湿度较大，更适宜某些致病细菌的生长；另外，中医认为夏季的“湿”容易降低女性的抵抗力；室外与空调房的过大温差，也容易使女性因免疫力不足而染病。下面介绍一些日常护理方法，帮助女性安然度夏。[编者按]

卵巢也会提前退休

缘何出现卵巢早衰 生活越来越富足的今天，女人为何会遭遇卵巢早衰呢？它的发生与精神压力过大有关吗？也许问题并不是我们想象的那么简单，因为迄今为止，卵巢早衰的病因及发病机理尚不十分清楚，多数学者认为主要有以下几方面原因。     

吹填粉细砂筑堤实践与研究

岳阳长江干堤是我国第一大河重要堤防,具有重要的战略地位。江南垸堤段每到汛期,堤身散浸,堤后管涌、海底浸不断,根据各方面比选决定采用吹填粉细砂筑堤进行治理。文章对大堤设计断面及排水方案进行拟定并对渗流稳定、堤坡稳定及地震反应进行分析,认为所拟定的加固断面可行,投资省。
