Recently, electromigration has been identified as a potential wear-out failure mode for
semiconductor devices employing metal film conductors of inadequate cross-sectional area. A …

Two wear-out type failure modes involving aluminum metallization for semiconductor devices
are described. Both modes involve mass transport by momentum exchange between …

… The northern region is shown in black on the map and includes the Northeast and Upper
Midwest. The southern region is shown in gray on the map and includes the Southeast and …

With the advent of induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technology, it is now feasible to
generate iPSCs with a defined genotype or disease state. When coupled with direct …

This article documents the design and rate‐making procedures used in the development of
the Group Risk Plan (GRP)—the new federal crop insurance product that insures based on …

The potential to differentiate human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) in vitro to provide an
unlimited source of human hepatocytes for use in biomedical research, drug discovery, and the …

Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are a valuable source of pluripotential primary cells.
To date, however, their homogeneous cellular differentiation to specific cell types in vitro has …

A failure mode commonly found in high power devices and integrated circuits appears
when aluminum conductors carry current densities in excess of 105 amperes per square …

Objective: To compare the tolerability and efficacy of three oral regimens for the treatment of
patients with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and Pneumocystis carinii …

A system for summarizing and applying factors known to influence body composition and
feedstuff utilization to predict performance of growing cattle is outlined. Included are …
