- A low-temperature electrical characterization of ultrathin oxide MOS capacitors with p(+) poly-Si1-xGex and poly-Si gate is performed. The investigated structures are suitable for future nano-scaled high speed MOSFETs. The aim of this study is to compare the low-temperature performance of poly-Si1-xGex and poly-Si gate MOS structures in the nanoscale channel length regime. Apart from the significant change in the flat band voltage, the result shows that all the poly-Si and poly-Si1-xGex gated MOS structures exhibit two centres of polarity change (zero-temperature coefficients) in capacitance. The second polarity change leads to an exclusive phenomenon in these structures. The low-temperature capacitance is found to be less than high-temperature capacitance at strong accumulation and this is in contrast to what has been observed so far in metal-gated capacitors. It is also observed that the temperature dependence of the tunnelling current is only on the oxide thickness and not on the gate material used.

- The radiation tolerance of three multimode optical fibres has been investigated to establish their suitability for the use in the front-end data links of the ATLAS experiment. Both gamma and neutron irradiation studies are reported. A step-index fibre with a pure silica core showed an induced attenuation of similar to 0.05 dB/m at 330 kGy(Si) and 1 x 10(15) n(1 MeV Si)/cm(2) and is suitable for use with the inner detector links which operate at 40-80 Mb/s. A graded-index fibre with a predominantly germanium-doped core exhibits an induced attenuation of similar to 0.1 dB/m at 800 Gy(Si) and 2 x 10(13) n(1 MeV Si)/cm(2) and is suitable for the calorimeter links which operate at 1.6 Gb/s. Measurements of the dose rate dependence of the induced attenuation indicate that the attenuation in ATLAS will be lower.
