  • Publication number: 20170301511
    Abstract: A double-tilt in-situ mechanical sample holder for TEM based on piezoelectric ceramic drive belongs to the field of material microstructure-mechanical properties in-situ characterization, and it comprise two parts of sample holder shaft body and piezoelectric ceramic drive system. The sample holder shaft body comprise tilt stage, sample holder, linear stepping motor, drive rod, drive linkage. The piezoelectric ceramic drive system comprise piezoelectric ceramic loading stage, piezoelectric ceramic, connecting base and the sample loading stage realizing stretch or compression function. The double-axis tilt of the samples in X and Y axis directions is realized by the reciprocating motion back and forth of the drive rod driven by the linear stepping motor. The stretch or compression of the samples is realized by applying voltage on the piezoelectric ceramic to generate displacement and push the sample loading stage by the connecting base.

  • Publication number: 20170301510
    Abstract: A double-tilt sample holder for TEM, comprising: it comprise the main body of sample holder body, front-end tilt stage, drive rod, linkage, tilt axis, rotation axis, fixed axis of drive rod and sample loading stage. The axis hole is arranged at the front-end tilt stage, which is connected to the main body of the sample holder body by the tilt axis. The linkage, the boss slot and the drive rod slot are connected by the rotation axis. Two through movement guide grooves are designed symmetrically at both sides of the front-end of sample holder body, and the drive rod is fixed by the fixed axis of the drive rod, which restricts the drive rod to move reciprocally in a straight line driven by the linear stepping motor at the back-end of the main body of the holder body, further leading the tilt stage to rotate around the tilt axis. The tilt angle of the sample loading stage can be precisely controlled by the high precision linear stepping motor in the apparatus.

  • Publication number: 20160125115
    Abstract: An electromagnetic parameterized cell (EM Pcell) is generated for a local environment of an integrated circuit (IC) design for an electronic design flow. A set of parasitics extracted netlists is developed from a set of Pcell layouts and an external EM environment. The parasitics extracted netlists are simulated to provide a set of performance metrics. When a symbolic view of the EM Pcell is displayed to a designer during a subsequent schematic phase of the design flow, the performance metrics are accessed from a design library, to increase accuracy of parameter value selection for the EM Pcell without a parasitics extraction of the physical layout and generation of a parasitics extracted netlist.

  • Publication number: 20150281206
    Abstract: In an example for implementing a process under a superuser privilege within a computing device, a monitor function library for monitoring an executable function is loaded when the process acquires the superuser privilege. When it is detected that the process runs the executable function, the monitor function library may suspend the running of the executable function, and output process monitoring information. If a feedback to the process monitoring information indicates that it is allowable to perform the executable function, a system function library is invoked to perform the executable function the process runs.
