Identification of boron-related traps via capacitance spectroscopy in diamond Schottky diodes

We present a comprehensive investigation of boron-related trapping phenomena in diamond Schottky diodes based on capacitance-voltage (CV) measurements and isothermal capacitance transient spectroscopy (ICTS). The CV characteristics exhibit a pronounced hysteresis, whose magnitude increases with temperature, thus indicating the presence of temperature-activated charge trapping within the depletion region. ICTS measurements reveal the presence of two distinct trapping processes. The faster proc...

«Grande es la diferencia». La jurisdicción episcopal en Sicilia y el conflicto con la Inquisición (s.XVII)

The jurisdictional conflict marked Church Justice administration in the seventeenth century Sicily in a very particular way. Bishops and Inquisitors, as guarantors of the believers’ morality through their respective courts, ended up defending stubbornly their rights against each other. This paper examines this typology of confrontation in terms of territorial, subject-matter and functional jurisdiction to the point of highlight the most preposterous consequences.

Le streghe di Isnello. La magia come crimine nelle Madonie d'antico regime (XVI-XVII secolo)

The Sicilian village of Isnello between the late 16th century and the early 17th century was the scene of a witch persecution. The local "curia spirituale", a first instance court for the Episcopal Office of Cefalù, prosecuted several women on charges of witchcraft and condemned some to public flogging and banishment. The tried witches were very divergent in reputation and social role. The healers were respected by their fellow villagers; the evil sorcerers, given to different crimes, lived o...
