Figure 2 shows a typical automatic spreading resistance system. It consists of a mechanical apparatus to operate the probes and step them across a bevelled test chip and an electronics sub-system to acquire, process and plot the data. 

Introduction. Transient spreading resistance occurs during startup and is important in certain micro-electronic systems. The spreading resistance can be defined with respect to the area-average temperature as a single point temperature such as the centroid. Solutions have been reported for isoflux contact areas on half-spaces, circular contact areas on circular flux tubes, and strips on channels.

Microwave radiation generates heat rapidly inside absorptive materials, and the heat then spreads via conduction through the material. The prime absorption mechanisms are dipolar rotation and electron/anion resistivity that produce ohmic heating (i.e., conductive currents due to the movement of ion or electron charges) [22]. 

EUV photoresists exhibit properties of both optical photoresists and electron-beam resists (discussed below), since EUV photons generate secondary electrons. The resolution is limited by the effective point spread function, rather than the diffraction limit due to the wavelength. 

The second type of internal resistance is electrical resistance—r2- The influences of temperature and electrolyte thickness on electronic internal resistance of the electrolytes are not well known. The electronic conductivity values of solid oxide electrolytes are spread across a very wide range. They do not have a major impact on calculated cell voltage for high fuel utilization factors. It is hard to measure the electronic resistance of solid oxide electrolytes since they have both conductivities (ionic and electronic) simultaneously, which gives total electrical resistance. It should be noted that decreasing electrolyte thickness reduces ionic resistance (positive effect), but also probably reduces electronic resistance (negative effect). 

It is a wide-spread belief that such reactions could not be relevant, since they are spin-forbidden. This need not be true. It appears that the reduced flavin is a soft molecule, which resists planarity in the singlet state because of an anti-aromatic number of delocalized 7r-electrons. Hence, the planar conformation of Flre(j might have an unusually low-lying triplet state, which favors the thermal spin relaxation in RX —... 

The electronics of CUORICEMO (see Section 16.6) consists of a complex anticoincidence system. One would hope that signals from all detectors had the same amplitude and shape for the same input. For this reason, all the components for the 56 detectors were carefully selected to be equal. Also the mounting of the components was made with the most reproducible technique. Nevertheless, there are some parameters such as the contact resistances between the thermistors and the absorbers and especially those between the absorbers and the frame which show a wide spread in their values. 

One can also note the dual character117> 1S2) of the instability. This has a localised aspect, since it originates on the localised states of the impurity centre, as well as an extended aspect since the electrons interact with phonons, the quantised motion spreading out all over the lattice. Clearly the quantitative effects of the interaction will depend on the properties of the phonons for example, one can safely anticipate that the effects will be small if the lattice resists well to pressure (of the localised electrons), or, equivalently, if the phonon energies are high. 

Further, the fact that metals are good electrical conductors means that the multi-centre orbitals must spread over the whole metal crystal so that we can account for the electron mobility. Several bonding theories have been described, and band theory is the most general. Before discussing band theory, we review electrical conductivity and resistivity.
