Simulation of Copper Electrodeposition in Millimeter Size Through-Silicon Vias

December 16, 2020
Author(s)
Trevor Braun, Daniel Josell, Thomas P. Moffat
Computational predictions of copper deposition in millimeter size through-silicon vias (mm-TSV) are presented based on localized breakdown of a co-adsorbed polyether-chloride suppressor layer. The model builds upon previous work on localized Cu deposition

Cohen Hubal, Xiaoyu Liu, Christiaan Delmaar, Antti J. Koivisto, Oliver Jolliet, Hyeong-Moo Shin, Miriam L. Diamond, Chenyang Bi, John C. Little
This paper describes a modular mechanistic framework for predicting chemical emission from indoor sources, partitioning among indoor compartments and exposure to humans present in the indoor environment focusing on semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs)

Distributing Time and Frequency Information

December 15, 2020
Author(s)
Judah Levine
This chapter discusses the statistics that are used to characterize the performance of clocks, oscillators, and the networks that are used to calibrate and synchronize and calibrate clocks and oscillators by means of data received from global navigation

Fire Hazards of Dry Versus Watered Christmas Trees

December 15, 2020
Author(s)
Matthew S. Hoehler, Matthew F. Bundy, Laurean A. DeLauter, Robin L. Materese, Leon Gerskovic, Jose R. Garcia
These experiments were designed to examine the difference in fire hazard between a dry Christmas tree and a watered Christmas tree for fire safety awareness. One dry tree (no water after harvesting) and one watered tree was tested with no replicates. The

Preliminary Data Collected from the Camp Fire Reconnaissance

December 15, 2020
Author(s)
Alexander Maranghides, William Mell, Steven Hawks, Mike Wilson, Will Brewer, Eric D. Link, Christopher U. Brown, Cartier P. Murrill, Erin Ashley
The Camp Fire started in the vicinity of Pulga Rd and Camp Creek Road, in Butte County on November 8 at 6:29 am. The cause of ignition is under investigation. The incident was classified as a vegetation fire. The Unified Command Agencies responsible for

Reappraising the appropriate use of a common meteorological quantity: Potential Temperature

December 15, 2020
Author(s)
Manuel Baumgartner, Ralf Weigel, Ulrich Achatz, Allan H. Harvey, Peter Spichtinger
The potential temperature is a widely used quantity in atmospheric science since it is conserved for air's adiabatic changes of state. Its definition involves the specific heat capacity of dry air, which is traditionally assumed as constant. However, the

Spatially graded porous transport layers for gas evolving electrochemical energy conversion: High performance polymer electrolyte membrane electrolyzers

December 15, 2020
