Title: Breakdown statistics of polyimide at low temperatures

Conference ·
OSTI ID:1003619

The dielectric breakdown data of polyimide at liquid nitrogen temperature are investigated. The applicability of the Weibull distribution is discussed. A new distribution function is proposed, and its utility and strength are illustrated distinctly by employing the Monte Carlo method.
