Abstract:
The state is read out from the ferroelectric transistor or stored in the ferroelectric transistor. During the read-out or storage of the state, at least one further ferroelectric transistor in the memory matrix is driven in such a way that it is operated in its depletion region.
Abstract:
A redundancy circuit for semiconductor memories having word lines organized in segments. If a defective word line appears in a segment then, by virtue of inter-segment redundancy, a redundant word line in the same or in a different segment can be activated by a segment select signal. Fuse sets assigned to the respective segments provide output signals. The segment select signal is generated directly by evaluating the fuse set output signals.
Abstract:
In one embodiment of the invention, a method for irradiating a target is disclosed. A proton beam is generated using a cyclotron. A first information is provided to an energy selection system. An energy level for the protons is selected using an energy selection system based on the first information. The first information comprises a depth of said target. The proton beam is routed from the cyclotron through a beam transfer line to a scanning system. A second information is provided to the scanning system. The second information comprises a pair of transversal coordinates. The proton beam is guided to a location on the target determined by the second information using a magnet structure. The target is irradiated with the protons.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an irradiation device for irradiating an irradiation object with heavy charged particles at an irradiation station, comprising a particle accelerator for providing a particle beam and a swivelling device for swivelling the particle beam impinging on the irradiation object, wherein the swivelling device comprises a carrier pivotable about an axis. In accordance with the invention, the irradiation device is characterized in that the particle accelerator is mounted on the pivotable carrier.
