Radiation effects on breakdown in silicon multiguarded diodes
No full textWe have investigated the current-voltage characteristics of silicon PIN diodes with a number of different multiguard structures. These structures were designed to increase the overall device breakdown voltage. The same measurements were carried out after gamma irradiation at different doses and neutron irradiation at fluences beyond type-inversion. This study is a first step towards defining guard structures optimized for operation in high-radiation environments such as those expected at the LHC
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
No full text“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
No full textWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Study of Punch-through Characteristics In Irradiated Mosfets
No full textThe DC and low frequency AC characteristics of the punch-through (PT) conduction have been examined in MOSFETs with different channel width/length ratios, fabricated on high resistivity Si substrates. The experimental results can be fitted by an analytical model deriving from a previous one developed for BARRITT devices. The modifications on the PT conduction induced by high dose neutron irradiation have been studied at various temperatures. The effects due to the radiation induced deep levels cannot be easily taken into account into the DC model, but can still be interpreted by using the AC model of the device
Development of a composition estimator for binary distillation columns. Application to a pilot plant
No full textA nonlinear extended Kalman filter, which infers the compositions of the streams leaving a binary distillation column from temperature measurements, is developed. The accuracy of the distillation column model on which the estimator is based, is discussed in connection with the reliability of the obtained estimates. The estimator performance is checked by comparison with the dynamic behavior of a distillation pilot plant, where the separation of a binary mixture of ethanol and water takes place
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
