A novel CMOS-process-compatible high-holding voltage silicon-controlled rectifier (HHV-SCR) for electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection is proposed and demonstrated by simulation and transmission line pulse (TLP) testing. The newly introduced hole (or electron) recombination region H-RR (or E-RR) not only recombines the minority carrier in parasitic PNP (or NPN) transistor base by N+ (or P+) layer, but provides the additional recombination to eliminate the surface avalanche carriers by newly added P+ (or N+) layer in H-RR (or E-RR), which brings about a further improvement of holding voltage (V). Compared with the measured V of 1.8 V of low-voltage triggered silicon-controlled rectifier (LVTSCR), the V of HHV-SCR can be increased to 8.1 V while maintaining a sufficiently high failure current (I > 2.6 A). An improvement of over four times in the figure of merit (FOM) is achieved.

A novel P-type Buried Layer Diode-Triggered Silicon-Controlled Rectifier (PBL-DTSCR) with predicted good performance in electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection is proposed in this work. With P-type ESD implantations and silicide blocking layers applied to this novel structure, the efficiency of the diode triggering path is greatly improved, thus enhancing the discharge efficiency of the main path. Moreover, the parasitic SCR path is minimized by replacing the PNPN structure in conventional DTSCR to PNPNPN structure in PBL-DTSCR.

Designing a material that can serve as both a submucosal injectable material (SIM) and a wound treatment agent is highly desirable for achieving optimal outcomes in endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), yet it remains a significant challenge. In this study, a series of injectable multifunctional microparticles were developed as SIMs to achieve rapid hemostasis and wound repair after ESD. To enhance the biofunctional properties of these microparticles, sodium alginate (SA) was modified through serotonin and cysteine grafting.

Currently, no consensus exists on optimal treatment for post-endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) gastric ulcer. This study aims to compare rebamipide and tegoprazan combination therapy with tegoprazan monotherapy for post-ESD ulcer healing. Between May 2022 and September 2023, 140 patients (141 lesions) who underwent ESD for gastric epithelial neoplasms at five tertiary hospitals were randomly assigned to tegoprazan monotherapy or combination therapy groups.
