Characterization of negative bias temperature instability in ultra-thin oxynitride gate P-MOSFETs by Wang, Shuang

“…Contrary to the single activation energy of the conventional SiO2 gate p-MOSFET, two distinct activation energies were obtained on ultra-thin oxynitride gate p-MOSFETs. One of the activation energy coincides with that obtained from the R-D model on SiO2 gate p-MOSFET; while the other activation energy is much smaller, representing a thermally-insensitive mechanism. …”

Persistent elevation of intrathecal pro-inflammatory cytokines leads to multiple sclerosis-like cortical demyelination and neurodegeneration by James, Rachel E., Schalks, Renee, Browne, Eleanor, Eleftheriadou, Ioanna, Munoz, Carmen Picon, Mazarakis, Nicholas D., Reynolds, Richard

“…Here we tested the hypothesis that persistent production of these cytokines in the meningeal compartment and diffusion into underlying GM can drive chronic MS-like GM pathology. Lentiviral transfer vectors were injected into the sagittal sulcus of DA rats to deliver continuous expression of TNF + IFNγ transgenes in the meninges and the resulting neuropathology analysed after 1 and 2 months. …”
