A hybrid localization method and a wireless network that performs the method are disclosed herein. In an embodiment of a hybrid localization technique, one or more sensor nodes in the network switch between different localization techniques depending on location area conditions. This technique chooses the most accurate localization technique for the given location area conditions, and thus potentially provides the best possible location accuracy for those conditions. A representative set of simulations and experiments verify the potential performance improvement realized with embodiments of the hybrid localization technique.

摘要:
Strontium ruthenium oxide provides an effective interface between a ruthenium conductor and a strontium titanium oxide dielectric. Formation of the strontium ruthenium oxide includes the use of atomic layer deposition to form strontium oxide and subsequent annealing of the strontium oxide to form the strontium ruthenium oxide. A first atomic layer deposition of strontium oxide is preformed using water as an oxygen source, followed by a subsequent atomic layer deposition of strontium oxide using ozone as an oxygen source.
