摘要:
An universal and programmable logic gate based on G4-FET technology is disclosed, leading to the design of more efficient logic circuits. A new full adder design based on the G4-FET is also presented. The G4-FET can also function as a unique router device offering coplanar crossing of signal paths that are isolated and perpendicular to one another. This has the potential of overcoming major limitations in VLSI design where complex interconnection schemes have become increasingly problematic.
摘要:
A preferred embodiment of this invention comprises an oxidizable layer (e.g. TiN 50), an noble-metal-insulator-alloy barrier layer (e.g. Pd-Si-N 34) overlying the oxidizable layer, an oxygen stable layer (e.g. platinum 36) overlying the noble-metal-insulator-alloy layer, and a high-dielectric-constant material layer (e.g. barium strontium titanate 38) overlying the oxygen stable layer. The noble-metal-insulator-alloy barrier layer substantially inhibits diffusion of oxygen to the oxidizable layer, thus minimizing deleterious oxidation of the oxidizable layer.

摘要:
An adherent and metallurgically stable metallization system for diamond is presented. The big improvement in metallurgical stability is attributed to the use of a ternary, amorphous Ti--Si--N diffusion barrier. No diffusion between the layers and no delamination of the metallization was observed after annealing the schemes at 400.degree. C. for 100 hours and at 900.degree. C. for 30 minutes. Thermal cycling experiments in air from -65 to 155.degree. C. and adhesion tests were performed. Various embodiments are disclosed.
