Airborne metal nanoparticles released by azides detonation: determination and potential public exposure

Christian Ludwig, Andrea Testino, Tianyu Cen, Laura Torrent Fabrega

Metal azides are highly energetic materials that release a large amount of gas upon detonation. They also release metal particles, generating an aerosol. The most common azide is sodium azide (NaN3), which is used nowadays in car airbags. If the decomposit ...

Analytical Modeling of Source-to-Drain Tunneling Current Down to Cryogenic Temperatures

Christian Enz, Hung-Chi Han

The subthreshold swing (SS) of MOSFETs decreases with temperature and then saturates below a critical temperature. Hopping conduction via the band tail has been proposed as the possible cause for the SS saturation. On the other hand, numerical simulations ...
