Study of degradation mechanisms in SiON gate dielectric film subjected to negative bias temperature instability (NBTI) stress by Kang, Chun Wei.

“…And, we have shown that stress-induced leakage current shares the same defect origin with the switching hole trap related to NBTI. Gate leakage current remains the same before and after nominal NBTI condition when no transformation of E’ center occurs although interface traps has been significantly generated. …”

“Following according to a rule is FUNDAMENTAL to our language-game.” Rules and meaning in Wittgenstein by Child, W

“…There is widespread agreement that, in his later philosophy, Wittgenstein sees the meaning of a word as a matter of the rules for its use; to grasp its meaning is to grasp the rules for its use; and using the word with that meaning is a matter of following those rules. …”

Ligand effect on switching the rate-determining step of water oxidation in atomically precise metal nanoclusters by Liu, Zhihe, Tan, Hua, Li, Bo, Hu, Zehua, Jiang, De-en, Yao, Qiaofeng, Wang, Lei, Xie, Jianping

“…Herein, we employ atomically precise Au25 nanoclusters with different ligands (i.e., para-mercaptobenzoic acid, 6-mercaptohexanoic acid, and homocysteine) as paradigm electrocatalysts to demonstrate oxygen evolution reaction rate-determining step switching through ligand engineering. Au25 nanoclusters capped by para-mercaptobenzoic acid exhibit a better performance with nearly 4 times higher than that of Au25 NCs capped by other two ligands. …”
