“Superconductive” (超導體) (L.N. 89 of 2021)

Refers to materials, i.e. metals, alloys or compounds, which can lose all electrical resistance, i.e. which can attain infinite electrical conductivity and carry very large electrical currents without Joule heating. (E.R. 6 of 2020)

Technical Note: (L.N. 132 of 2001)

The “superconductive” state of a material is individually characterized by a “critical temperature”, a critical magnetic field, which is a function of temperature, and a critical current density which is, however, a function of both magnetic field and temperature.

         2.    ‘Technical assistance’ may take forms such as instruction, skills, training, working knowledge, consulting services. ‘Technical assistance’ may involve transfer of ‘technical data’.

3

“Three dimensional integrated circuit” (三維集成電路)

A collection of semiconductor dies or active device layers, integrated together, and having through semiconductor via connections passing completely through an interposer, substrate, die or layer to establish interconnections between the device layers. An interposer is an interface that enables electrical connections. (L.N. 27 of 2015; L.N. 89 of 2021)

6

“Time constant” (時間常數)

The time taken from the application of a light stimulus for the current increment to reach a value of 1-1/e times the final value (i.e. 63% of the final value).

9

“Tip shroud” (葉尖覆環)

A stationary ring component (solid or segmented) attached to the inner surface of the engine turbine casing or a feature at the outer tip of the turbine blade, which primarily provides a gas seal between the stationary and rotating components. (L.N. 161 of 2011)

6

“Tunable” (可調式)

The ability of a “laser” to produce a continuous output at all wavelengths over a range of several “laser” transitions. A line selectable “laser” produces discrete wavelengths within one “laser” transition and is not considered “tunable”.
