Abstracts Requested for International Electrostatic Discharge Workshop

Presentations should address novel design concepts; special custom design approaches; technology integration issues; failure analysis; test structures; simulation tools; component-level ESD testing; ESD characterization; system-level ESD issues; immunity of ICs to EMI, and unresolved ESD issues.

Electric discharge applications

You can find many unthinkable application to electric discharge (you can name such as plasma application too).
Just to have a start:
- combustion enhancement
- ionic propulsion
- supersonic stabilisation
- invisible airplane
