Statistical Model Of Hot-Carrier Degradation And Lifetime Prediction For P-Mos Transistors, Firat Kaçar, Ayten Kuntman, Hakan Kuntman Jan 2006

Statistical Model Of Hot-Carrier Degradation And Lifetime Prediction For P-Mos Transistors, Firat Kaçar, Ayten Kuntman, Hakan Kuntman

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Along with advances in microelectronics, and computer and space technologies, device dimensions are becoming smaller; as a result, hot-carrier effect, lifetime prediction, and reliability become more important concepts for MOS transistors. In this paper, the degradation in the drain current and threshold voltage of P-MOS transistors are observed by operating the devices under voltage stress conditions. Using the observation results, the effect of hot-carriers was investigated statistically and a new statistical method for modeling was proposed as an alternative to those given in the literature. The linear regression method is used to estimate the power, Weibull, and logarithmic parameters, and …


The Effect Of Collector Doping On Inp-Based Double Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors, Serkan Topaloğlu, Jörn Driesen, Werner Prost, Franz Josef Tegude Jan 2006

The Effect Of Collector Doping On Inp-Based Double Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors, Serkan Topaloğlu, Jörn Driesen, Werner Prost, Franz Josef Tegude

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

High current effects on double heterojunction bipolar transistor (DHBT) performance were investigated. Three DHBTs with different collector doping densities were grown and processed. DC and RF measurements were performed to evaluate the influence of collector doping and the related Kirk effect on HBT performance. In addition to these samples, the Kirk effect was proven on SHBTs and the delay of this effect on submicron HBTs was investigated.

Controlling Rail Potential Of Dc Supplied Rail Traction Systems, Mehmet Turan Söylemez, Süleyman Açikbaş, Adnan Kaypmaz Jan 2006

Controlling Rail Potential Of Dc Supplied Rail Traction Systems, Mehmet Turan Söylemez, Süleyman Açikbaş, Adnan Kaypmaz

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Most modern DC electrified mass transit systems use a totally floating earth as their grounding strategy. A well-known problem related with totally floating systems is that the touch potentials can be dangerously high. In order to reduce the voltages on rails, several devices exist. Most of these devices allow a direct connection to earth when a certain voltage threshold is exceeded. In this paper, the working principles of these devices are given and the effect of certain parameters related with these devices on the minimum achievable touch potentials is investigated.

A Detailed Ensemble Monte Carlo Study Of The Effect Of Quantum Well Width On Quantum Well Infrared Photodetector Characteristics, Sema Memi̇ş, Oray Orkun Cellek, Umut Bostanci, Mehmet Tomak, Cengi̇z Beşi̇kçi̇ Jan 2006

A Detailed Ensemble Monte Carlo Study Of The Effect Of Quantum Well Width On Quantum Well Infrared Photodetector Characteristics, Sema Memi̇ş, Oray Orkun Cellek, Umut Bostanci, Mehmet Tomak, Cengi̇z Beşi̇kçi̇

Turkish Journal of Physics

We present a simulation based investigation of the dependence of the device characteristics on the quantum well width in AlGaAs/GaAs quantum well infrared photodetectors (QWIPs) through the ensemble Monte Carlo technique. The simulations on two different standard Al_{0.3}Ga_{0.7}As/GaAs QWIPs with quantum well widths of 36 and 44 Å have shown that the gain in the former is considerably higher, which is due to much longer lifetime of the photoexcited electrons as a result of lower capture probability in the device. We discuss this observation by the investigation of the electron scattering rates in these structures through realistically evaluated scattering mechanisms …


Infinite-Hamiltonian Structures Of The Riemann Equation, Refi̇k Turhan Jan 2006

Infinite-Hamiltonian Structures Of The Riemann Equation, Refi̇k Turhan

Turkish Journal of Physics

We give two distinct infinite-Hamiltonian representations for the Riemann equation. One with first order Hamiltonian operators and another with third order-first order Hamiltonian operators. Both representations contain an arbitrary function of the dynamical variable. We prove that all the Hamiltonian operators of the Riemann equation are mutually compatible.

A Corpus-Based Concatenative Speech Synthesis System For Turkish, Haşi̇m Sak, Tunga Güngör, Yaşar Safkan Jan 2006

A Corpus-Based Concatenative Speech Synthesis System For Turkish, Haşi̇m Sak, Tunga Güngör, Yaşar Safkan

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Speech synthesis is the process of converting written text into machine-generated synthetic speech. Concatenative speech synthesis systems form utterances by concatenating pre-recorded speech units. Corpus-based methods use a large inventory to select the units to be concatenated. In this paper, we design and develop an intelligible and natural sounding corpus-based concatenative speech synthesis system for the Turkish language. The implemented system contains a front-end comprised of text analysis, phonetic analysis, and optional use of transplanted prosody. The unit selection algorithm is based on commonly used Viterbi decoding algorithm of the best-path in the network of the speech units using spectral …


An Ann Based Approach To Improve The Distance Relaying Algorithm, Hassan Khorashadi Zadeh, Zuyi Li Jan 2006

An Ann Based Approach To Improve The Distance Relaying Algorithm, Hassan Khorashadi Zadeh, Zuyi Li

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

This paper presents an artificial neural network- (ANN) based approach to improve the performance of the distance relaying algorithm. The proposed distance relay uses magnitudes of voltages and currents as input signals to find fault locations. In this approach, an ANN has been included in the protection algorithm as an extension of the existing methods, which improves the reliability of the protection operation. The design procedure of the proposed relay is presented in detail. Simulation studies are performed and the influence of changing system parameters, such as fault resistance and source impedance, is studied. Performance studies show that the proposed …
