M-I-S solar cell - Theory and experimental results

The paper presents an operating-mode analysis of an MIS solar cell and discusses the advantages which can arise as a result of the use of transport control, field shaping (increased n factor), and zero bias barrier height modification. It is noted that for an n-type semiconductor, it is relatively easy to obtain an enhanced n factor using acceptor-like states without an increase in diode saturation current, the converse being true for p-type semiconductors. Several MIS configurations are examined: an acceptor-like, localized state configuration producing field shaping and no change in diode saturation current, and acceptor-like localized configurations producing field shaping, with a decrease of diode saturation current, in one case, and an increase in the other.

Spatial variations in tropical ozone - The influence of meridional transport and planetary waves in the stratosphere

The backscatter ultraviolet instrument on the Atmosphere Explorer-E satellite has acquired a large body of stratospheric and total ozone data in the tropical region. The latitudinal variation of the ozone mixing ratio on constant pressure surfaces shows the transition from chemical domination to transport control between 5 and 10 mb. Spectral analysis of the longitudinal O3 structure reveals large wavenumber 1 and 2 patterns, although considerable activity in wavenumbers 5 through 7 sometimes appears. Longitudinal structure increases with decreasing pressure between 30 and 5 mb. The spatial variability near 5 mb must reflect similar structure in the odd nitrogen distribution which provides the major loss mechanism for ozone at this level.

Fault detection, isolation and reconfiguration in FTMP Methods and experimental results

The Fault-Tolerant Multiprocessor (FTMP) is a highly reliable computer designed to meet a goal of 10 to the -10th failures per hour and built with the objective of flying an active-control transport aircraft. Fault detection, identification, and recovery software is described, and experimental results obtained by injecting faults in the pin level in the FTMP are presented. Over 21,000 faults were injected in the CPU, memory, bus interface circuits, and error detection, masking, and error reporting circuits of one LRU of the multiprocessor. Detection, isolation, and reconfiguration times were recorded for each fault, and the results were found to agree well with earlier assumptions made in reliability modeling.

CID overview

On December 1, 1984, NASA and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) conducted the first remotely piloted air-to-ground crash test of a transport category aircraft. The Full-Scale Transport Controlled Impact Demonstration (CID) was the culmination of 4 years of effort by the two agencies. NASA and the FAA had many objectives during the joint planning and execution of the Controlled Impact Demonstration. The structural loads experiment was very successful. Ninety-seven percent of the channels were active at impact. The data is still being assessed. Only a portion of the data is presented here; approximately 80 channels of data are available. Analysis of the remaining data is in progress. Interior photography was also very successful. One hundred percent of the cameras functioned. The film contains unique information on the development of fire and smoke in the interior of the aircraft. From a human tolerance point of view, the CID was simulation of a survivable crash.
