A contact-less high-speed signaling interface and method provide for the communication of high-speed signals across an interface, such as a die-substrate interface or die-die interface. The interface includes a transmission-line structure disposed on a dielectric medium to carry a high-speed forward incident signal, and another transmission-line structure disposed on another dielectric medium and substantially aligned with the other transmission-line structure to generate a coupled high-speed signal in a direction opposite to the incident signal.

Provided are a Schottky barrier tunnel transistor (SBTT) and a method of fabricating the same. The SBTT includes a buried oxide layer formed on a base substrate layer and having a groove at its upper surface; an ultra-thin silicon-on-insulator (SOI) layer formed across the groove; an insulating layer wrapping the SOI layer on the groove; a gate formed to be wider than the groove on the insulating layer; source and drain regions each positioned at both sides of the gate, the source and drain regions formed of silicide; and a conductive layer for filling the groove. In the SBTT, the SOI layer is formed to an ultra-thin thickness to minimize the occurrence of a leakage current, and a channel in the SOI layer below the gate is completely wrapped by the gate and the conductive layer, thereby improving the operational characteristics of the SBTT.

A shield wiring is provided on a boundary of a target region to be shielded of macros, an inner side of the boundary, an outer side of the boundary, or an inner side and an outer side of the boundary, each being as a black box, so as to surround the target region. This shield wiring is electrically connected to a power supply terminal or a power supply wiring of the macros or the like, or to a power supply wiring on another wiring layer through a contact section, thereby fixing a potential of the shield wiring. An accurate delay value is then obtained by estimating an influence of crosstalk between a wiring in a region where the physical wiring pattern is clear and the shield wiring and also estimating a capacitance produced between the wirings.

A superconducting PM machine has a stator, a rotor and a stationary excitation source without the need of a ferromagnetic frame which is cryogenically cooled for operation in the superconducting state. PM material is placed between poles on the rotor to prevent leakage or diffusion of secondary flux before reaching the main air gap, or to divert PM flux where it is desired to weaken flux in the main air gap. The PM material provides hop-along capability for the machine in the event of a fault condition.

A flip chip assembly is disclosed that includes a coplanar waveguide launch with a transmission line, and a bump interconnection that includes multiple ground bumps. The transmission line maybe a radial transmission line. Similarly, the ground bumps maybe arranged in a pseudo-coaxial configuration so as to effect a vertical transition in the flip chip assembly. A method is also disclosed that includes the steps of: providing a coplanar waveguide transmission line launch; providing a chip for attachment to the coplanar waveguide launch; arranging one or more ground bumps on the coplanar waveguide launch; and forming a bump interconnection between the coplanar waveguide launch and the chip. The coplanar waveguide launch provided in this step may include a radial transmission line. The step of arranging the multiple ground bumps may include the step of arranging multiple ground bumps in a pseudo-coaxial configuration.

The present invention concerns the improvement of the supercurrent carrying capabilities, i.e. the increase of critical current densities, of bicrystalline or polycrystalline superconductor structures, especially of high-Tc superconductors. By providing an appropriate predetermined dopant profile across the superconductor structure, in particular within or in the vicinity of the grain boundaries, the space-charge layers at the grain boundaries are reduced and thereby the current transport properties of the superconductor significantly improved. Simultaneously, the influence of magnetic fields on the critical current densities is significantly reduced, which in turn enhances the overall supercurrent carrying capabilities while keeping the supercurrent transport properties of the grains at good values.

Disclosed herein is a method of forming a superconductor, comprising the steps of: providing a substrate and exposing the substrate to a first atmosphere, including precursors to form a first epitaxial layer segment. The first layer segment is then exposed to a second atmosphere, including precursors to form a second epitaxial layer segment, and the second layer segment is exposed to a third atmosphere including precursors to form a third epitaxial layer segment. Each of the first and third layer segments are each formed from a superconductor material and the second layer segment is formed from a material different from the first and third layer segments and the first, second and third layer segments have a collective thickness, the third layer segment having an outer surface with a roughness which is less than that of a single layer of the superconductor material with a thickness equal to the collective thickness.
