Presented is our measurements of a single electronic spin in the gate oxide of submicron-size silicon field effect transistors. Defects near the silicon and silicon dioxide interface have profound effects on the transistor conduction properties. For a submicron transistor, there might be only one isolated trap state that is within a proper tunneling distance regarding to both the coordinate and energy. We have studied the statistics and dynamics of individual defects extensively by random telegraph signal (RTS), the stochastic switching of the channel conductivity due to the trapping of...

Emerging in China in the early 1990s, Falun Gong is viewed by its supporters as a folk movement promoting the benefits of good health and moral cultivation. To the Chinese establishment, however, it is a dissident religious cult threatening political orthodoxy and national stability. The author, a Chinese national once involved in implementing Chinese cultural policies, examines the evolving relationship between Falun Gong and Chinese authorities in a revealing case study of the powerful public discourse between a pervasive political ideology and an alternative agenda in contention for...
