A training simulation for practicing shared decision making for older patients

We describe the design of a product that supports older patients in preparing themselves for a consultation with a health-care professional. The product focuses on shared-decision making, and supports multi-modal interaction. Users can interact with the product through speech, text, and mouse. The product has been designed and evaluated in several co-creation sessions

A simplified method for (circular) transmission line model simulation and ultralow contact resistivity extraction

The metal resistance in the transmission line model (TLM) structures creates a serious obstacle to determine precisely the intrinsic contact resistivity. To tackle this problem, we propose a new model, the Lump Model, to evaluate the metal resistance influence in both TLM and circular TLM (CTLM) test structures. In this work, we demonstrate the high simplicity, great robustness and flexibility of the Lump Model. The previous reported contact resistivity values extracted with CTLM are usually above 1×10-7 Ω·cm2 because the metal resistance impact is commonly neglected. This is the first time that the role of the metal in CTLM is appropriately analyzed. Low contact resistivity, 3.6×10-8 Ω·cm2, of standard NiSi/n-Si contact has been extracted and this shows the high sensitivity of this method.status: publishe

Low-Resistance Titanium Contacts and Thermally Unstable Nickel Germanide Contacts on p-Type Germanium

© 2016 IEEE. Ti/p-Ge and NiGe/p-Ge contacts are compared on both planar- and fin-based devices. Ti/p-Ge contacts show low contact resistance, while NiGe/p-Ge devices show short circuit problems due to thermally driven Ni diffusion. Considering the thermal budget in the standard backend of line processing for CMOS, Ti is more suitable for p-Ge devices. A low Ti/p-Ge contact resistivity of 1.1 × 10-8 Ω cm2 is achieved by using a multi-pulse laser annealing technique for B activation.status: publishe
