Method of improving contact bonds in silicon integrated circuits

Fabrication method produces stable and reliable metallic systems for interconnections, contact pads, and bonded leads in silicon planar integrated circuits. The method is based on substrate isolation of the interconnection metal from the contact pad and bonded wire

Nonvolatile read/write memory element - A concept

Memory, with limited number of programming cycles, is achieved by using verticle, fusible links in series with oxide breakthrough elements. Memory elements are fabricated with integrated circuit technology and are ideal for low power digital computer application

Non-perturbative Renormalization of Improved Staggered Bilinears

We compute Z-factors for general staggered bilinears on fine (a \approx 0.09 fm) MILC ensembles using both asqtad and HYP-smeared valence actions, comparing the results to the predictions of one-loop perturbation theory. This is an extension of previous work on the coarse (a \approx 0.12 fm) MILC ensembles. It provides a laboratory for studying NPR methodology in the staggered context, and is an important stepping stone for fully non-perturbative matching factors in ongoing computations of B_K and other weak matrix elements. We also implement non-exceptional RI/SMOM renormalization conditions using the asqtad action and present first results.Comment: 7 pages, 4 figures.
