Motivated by understanding the ESD-induced currents from body-worn, wire and hose connected medical equipment is exposed to, a computer simulation is presented to estimate the impedance of a human body relative to ground. This 3D model is the basis for transient field calculation. A Method of Moments (MoM) frequency domain solution is transformed into time domain via IFFT for further circuit level...
E-Beam inspection (EBI) is widely applied as in-line defect monitoring tool for 14nm semiconductor manufacturing fabs. Failure mechanisms can be identified by cross-sectioning on the specific defect detected by EBI. Dark voltage contrast (DVC) and bright voltage contrast (BVC) are two typical types of e-Beam defects. In real practice, it is much easier to validate DVC signal due to its obvious detectability...
In this work, pulsed micro-discharges produced by dielectric barrier discharges (DBDs) with a sub-millimeter gap were electrically-characterized under ac voltage at 100 Hz and at 5 kHz. Ozone production was investigated for different discharge gap lengths and pressures. The aim of the work was to understand the statistics of filamentary current pulses and their relationship to the reduced electric...
Con Edison experiences more than 1000 arcing faults on its secondary distribution system each year. Arcing faults introduce strong harmonics into the power network. We propose a fast, low cost, and high performance approach to localizing arcing faults based on harmonics. First, we implemented 2 novel algorithms. One is based on voltage ratio of harmonics. This method can detect arcing fault one at...
